Rumor: Rare Back Catalogue Coming to Xbox Live Arcade?
by Roly Reyes on January 8, 2008

Xbox Evolved claims that in talks with very reliable sources evidence has presented itself in the form of, well, we don’t know what form of evidence they saw. They just won’t show us, but what they did is tell us all about is what may be headed to our XBLA. Banjo, Ms. Dark, or dare we say, Bond?
According to Xbox Evolved, Microsoft, Rare, MGM Studios (studio that currently holds rights to 007 films) and Activision (publisher that currently holds rights 007 games) have come to an agreement to bring the Rare developed N64 classic Goldeneye 007 out to the Xbox Live Arcade.
Xbox Evolved goes on to detail that the title will feature updated graphics and online multiplayer. They even go on to say that in addition to Goldeneye, Banjo-Kazooie and Perfect Dark will appear on XBLA.
If all of this is true, this is a big success for the Xbox Live Arcade over the Virtual Console. I’m just hoping that along with updated graphics, they bring on some revamped controls, Why, you ask? Go break out your N64 and that dusted up copy of Goldeneye.
