Stop N Swop Fans: The Truth From Rare
 
For those that don't know, Rare-Extreme had a tour of Rare HQ in the UK last Friday.
Yes, the truth to Stop N Swop is going to be told, we now know what Rare has to say about it.
There will be full reference to Rarewitchproject and how you guys found the codes in our coming editorial.

Stick around

They spilt some beans, eh? I hope you don't mind my temporary skepticism until the tour is posted ;)

Sounds interesting, though. Is SNS all the goods you got? Since the Goldeneye Citadel was found, I'm sure answers on that would be nice too :)

banjordan 19th February 2004 02:59 AM

I don't know if I'm right or not, but this is what I think...

SNS was dropped, but there are still some remnants of it hidden in the games. It has been proven by the RWP that SNS, at one time or another, had a connection with DK64. Nintendo didn't like the idea of hot-swapping so they wouldn't let Rare carry out the SNS project. Nothing different, but that's what I believe.

Bottle's Revenege... I don't know what to make of that, there is enough evidence to show that it still exists, but I think for some reason Rare had to remove. That still bugs me though that scribes where Rare responded to a question "Who is that red Bottles?" with something like: "H/e's I-n sE#cRet s-/ub g@m3 c@113d b0tT1eS r3\/3nGe" after the game released. Good ol' Rare and their tricks. :)

obviously a few hours at Rare HQ is going to result in us coming out witha lot more then just one thing.

We're going to have a full step by step walkthrough of those few hours with everything seen, touched and discussed.

cyberen 19th February 2004 03:02 AM

ok, I hope the interview is real.....

rare-extremewoz 19th February 2004 03:04 AM

Its not an interview, its a tour of the actual developer HQ.

banjordan 19th February 2004 03:04 AM

How did you get them to tell you that info?

Exactly. That pre-GR "interview" smelled awfully fishy to me, and I have my doubts about this upcoming one.

rare-extremewoz 19th February 2004 03:19 AM

As if anyone would announce they went to Rare HQ infront of the world if it wasnt true.
Email scribes, Leigh will back it up. R-E was really there.

Icy Guy 19th February 2004 02:38 PM

Oh, I didn't say that I didn't believe that you were actually there. I just have my doubts about the authenticity of what was supposedly said during your visit.

SubDrag 19th February 2004 02:46 PM

I look forward to your article. I want a full-on interview with a Goldeneye member and getting the honest truth about everything.

banjordan 19th February 2004 03:13 PM

I'll be looking forward to the article. :)

thebanjo 19th February 2004 05:12 PM

like english people say : Wait & See :D

EvilPsycho 19th February 2004 07:13 PM

yes i can't wait!

I trust you rare-extremewoz!!

John 19th February 2004 07:32 PM

This should be interesting.

Casey 19th February 2004 07:56 PM

Hey, it's about time. XD Let's hope this is the real thing...

banjosrevenge 20th February 2004 10:39 AM

how did you get a tour did you black mail rare?;)

MrPants 20th February 2004 12:52 PM

Ha I was thinking about the same thing. Kind of of topic but is your screen name also banjosrevenge at gamefaqs?

tomo_turkey 21st February 2004 05:15 AM

I have just checked out the website today.Everything will be revealed over the coming days. They also say that they know something that we do not but it has been 4 days since it last updated so everything should be revealed very soon!!!!

Yeah, and it's not nice to string your readers along. Though I should talk... we've been mentioning secret projects on The Void for months now... :)

But still.

MrPants 21st February 2004 07:42 AM

They can't update because they lost contact with the guy that got into Rare HQ and he is stillin New England but they are going to beable to contact him when he gets back to where ever he lives.

cyberen 22nd February 2004 06:39 PM

I hope they cover all the bases as mentioned here.....

MrPants 22nd February 2004 11:40 PM

They probably will since they supposibly know the full story on SNS.

Jason 23rd February 2004 12:09 AM

You can trust Rare-Extreme. All their coverage is 100% true.
For those that don't know RE is one of the most popular Rare sites. They have ties with people at Rare, so it probably wasn't hard to get into the quarters.

I can't wait. One of the biggest things in video game history is about to be revealed!

Gaming Master2k 23rd February 2004 01:52 AM

All I can say is that I'll believe it when I see it (and honestly I'll have to wait & see if i believe even then). I've found that the RWP is pretty much the only site I can trust about reliable Rare Info.

Gold Jinjo 23rd February 2004 03:55 AM

Hahah.... I thought I'd bring up one of RareOps' old comics (RareOps now, of course, is dead and The Void is its successor of which I work...). It featured a reference to Rare-Extreme....

http://www.void-games.com/view_galle...lename=ep2.gif

I just thought it'd be funny to bring up at this point ;)

I don't know why.

cyberen 23rd February 2004 06:25 PM

I guess as long as the story adds up....

Did you ever read their pre-GR "interview" with a Rare employee? It seems to have disappeared (for some reason, the topic and any reference to it on RE are off the radar), but, regardless, it smelled very fishy. I think one of the things said was that something big would happen in GR, and, well, that didn't happen. Yes, the article was written in a Loveday-ish style, but parts of it were a bit too flip to be believable. Plus, I doubt there are many other employees like him, in the "Oh, we'll just twist everything you say around in circles, mmkay?" sense.

It may not have been hard to get into Rare HQ (this I won't believe), but getting the info would be hard. I mean, you don't think that some of these people are under NDA?

Remember, that's GameFAQs. There's no contest there... everybody's dumb. ;)

MrPants 26th February 2004 03:35 AM

lol yeah. I've been avoiding gamefaqs ever since all those hentai freaks starting showing up in about ever message board.

Banjo-Kazooie42 28th February 2004 11:29 AM

There's an update on RE and it says that the member that got the tour is back, so the write-up will probably be done soon.

BlueBreegull 29th February 2004 02:15 PM

Well it better be! All I've heard is soon soon soon soonsoonsoonSOON!!! I'm dying here! And I'm actually surprised that I still care about SNS, to be honest.

cyberen 29th February 2004 05:50 PM

I'm DYIN' here!

You know, we have a lot in common. We should be friends.

cyberen 29th February 2004 09:13 PM

yes we do. How about a nice instant message conversation and some punch, Breegull?

rare-extremewoz 1st March 2004 07:22 AM

People, tomorrow night is the night! you will not be disappointed, we have photos :) yup! info galore! and there’s plenty to tell. We’re even doing a competition to give away a surprise rare gave us.

God I love this developer

banjosrevenge 1st March 2004 12:54 PM
