I never owned the older consoles where most of Rare games were produced but playing the games on Replay is a wonderful look at the evolution of games over 30 years. Rare really has a great heritage and pedigree and this is a classic collection of games that you can't find anywhere else. A must buy for those, like myself, that have been playing games since the 80's on PC and have watched as the medium has matured and gotten a lot more sophisticated over time!

Fantastic compilation of classic games, though having to download a handful (I.e. Banjo kazooie) was tedious.

awesome collection of games for everyone young and old. There are some games that are rated M so parents do not let your kids play unsupervised. I highly recommend it for a gamer that has been playing video games since the 90s and for new gamers to catch up on some classic game titles. MUST BUY!! FRom Killer Instinct to Perfect Dark to Conker to Battle Toads there is something for everyone!!!

As a gamer who grew up with the NES and N64 this is a great throwback! I am loving going back and solving all the puzzles and challenges like I did as a kid pre-"look it up on the internet". The controls are slightly different being on a different system obviously but once you get used to them its great. I would recommend this to anyone who played these years ago and wants a bit of nostalgia.

I'm actually not a big fan of most of the games in this collection - my favorite Rare games (Goldeneye and the DKC series) aren't included for licensing reasons. I'm also one of those weirdoes who doesn't particularly care for the Banjo-Kazooie games.
That said, I enjoyed getting to play Perfect Dark, Blast Corps and Battletoads again. Given the discount associated with Gamer's Club Unlocked, those games alone for that price are a good deal.

Growing up with the NES, SNES, Genesis, N64, etc, I've always had a heart for the classic games. This is a great compilation and they even recently released a patch to make the games 16:9 widescreen instead of the old 4:3 format. So, with that being said, I recommend it even more highly now! Some duds in here, but the true classics (Conker, Banjo, etc) really make up for those. Great collection of games to also ease your child into gaming as well!

I grew up owning many of the NES games Rare developed and playing them again is a real treat. The N64 games are pretty good as well, having never owned or really played those games. I wish the newer games were included on the disc for install rather than having to be downloaded. The presentation of the games is top notch and you can clearly see a lot of effort was put into this collection.

A collection of Rare games ( some classic some not so classic) most of which are very playable to this day. The collection also includes some unlockable videos with the Rare staff talking about how the games came to fruition and why they were made. For those with slow internet connections keep in mind that some of the modern titles must be downloaded and are not actually on the disc.

This is an incredible value!! I love having all these Nintendo 64 classics on my Xbox One. My only complaints are the very old arcade games included on here. They are clunky to control & just not fun today (I think there are 4 specific games, Saberwulf is 1 of them & the other 3 have the same art style & graphics & just plain suck) the rest of the collection is excellent!!

I bought this almost exclusively for banjo kazooie and this absolutely delivered. It worked extremely well, plus provided me with a plethora of other great games from my childhood, and even some more recently such as the new perfect dark. Overall I was really pleased with the selection and I felt the price was well worth the number of high quality games provided.

Rare Replay is a blast to the past for any gamer who grew up playing classic games from the last 30 years. You get 30 games for $30.00 which in its own is a great deal. You get to revisit classics like Conkets bad fur day, Killer Instinct, Jet pack Gemini, Perfect Dark, Battletoads( still a pain to beat LOL) and many many more. A must have for any Xbox One owner.

Nintendo Classics on Xbox

Rare Replay is an amazing value with the classics it includes. However, it feels strange and wrong to be playing these titles on the Xbox One and not the Wii U (Almost all of the titles included were released originally on a Nintendo Platform). While it's worth the purchase it would be amazing if MS would allow Rare to collaborate with Nintendo to give these classics a proper release on the Nintendo Eshop as well.

I was surprise that Rare released a collection of games that they made throughout their times when they were producing games for the NES and Super NES. The games that are in this collection are great. But, make you install the later games on your XBOX One as they will not work until they are install. Overall, I enjoyed all the games in this neat collection.
