Xbox Originals may get Grabbed by the Ghoulies

MundoRare writes: "This past weekend, a look at PEGI's site (basically, the European ESRB with illustrations depicting why a game is bad) showed that Rare's Grabbed by the Ghoulies was rated for the Xbox 360. Seeing how a sequel would probably be named something different (like Nuts & Bolts' fictional "Grabbed by the Ghoulies II"), it leaves either an XBLA re-release or a re-release on Xbox Originals."

I think the real issue is that the minds that made those games special are nowhere around. When it’s a series that gets new versions regularly like a COD, Forza, Gears, or Halo you can’t really feel the effects so much of teams changing although I’m sure they do, and all the time. Part of that original vision can live on through some of those team members that remain. In these LONG dormant games they have a far greater chance of ruining the memory of these games and the feel they have us than recapturing it. I think that’s also why Rare hasn’t had a hit since they left Nintendo. Rare should be left to their own vices to make a find a identity and make a new IP. ONLY time I saw a whole new team knock it out the park is the new God of War. Corey killed that.

It's unfortunately that Kameo 2 was canceled by Don Mattrick.

Interesting list, I never heard of the gameboy game they had talked about. But I would still like new IPs this gen.

A new Perfect Dark would do

First batch of Original Xbox Games arrive on Xbox One via Back Compat - Should you be playing them?

Carlos writes "Xbox One Backwards Compatibility additions may have been quieter than usual in recent weeks, but now we are seeing interest boil up to an all-time high as Microsoft have brought the first wave of original Xbox titles to Xbox One via the Xbox One Backwards Compatibility program. With Original Xbox titles now available thanks to the sizeable list of new additions, here are our thoughts on which ones are most deserving of your time, along with the one’s we’d recommend you leave in the past – although should you be one that enjoys going back in time, this week’s arrivals hardly have anything you wouldn't want to be playing."
