Rare has made some great games in their days and this collection brings a lot of them together. This gives the games great replayability by adding achievements and added objectives to games. It's a shame that Rare sold the rights to Goldeneye, that would have been an amazing compliment to this pack.

Those looking to relive the glory days of Rare will undoubtedly enjoy Rare Replay. It has most of the classics, and some with updated graphics. The only real issue I have, is that once you select a game, you aren't able to go back to the main menu to change games. Instead the game must be rebooted.

From way back 8-16 bit games all the way up to the games made for 360 this collection of games couldn't do rare any more justice. It shows just how good a games maker rare used to be before Microsoft bought them and had them build shovelware for the kinect.

To think these were the games of my time when they were released, is crazy. Getting use to the way that the controls work after playing current gen games, is like playing the games for the first time again. A great collection for any video game enthusiast.

If you are a big fan of Rare, when they were one of the top developers, this is a must buy if you don't have them in your ROM collection already. A good number of games for the price, so good value, but I'm not sure you would enjoy them too much if you are young and this is your first time around.

Rare was one of the best developers of my childhood, pretty much unable to do me wrong from the SNES and N64 days. With not many modern devs willing to make games like Banjo Kazooie anymore, it's great to revisit some classic gameplay from time to time.

Its worthwhile at the $30 price point, not having Goldeneye from N64 the most popular rare game, causes it to lose a star. The games are good, but of course not as good as you remember them since we have been spoiled in the more recent years with exponentially better games. Still plenty of fun.

30 classic RARE games for $30 is a steal! All games are re-done to support achievements and bonus features. It's fantastic and for only $30 it's like getting 30 games for one dollar each. Why are you still reading this? Go out and get a copy right now!

Admittedly some of these have not aged well especially for newcomers to Rare's past... but for Rare fans, indie/nostalgia lovers, or for a nice cheap first purchase for a new Xbox one console for family use: it's perfect. Lots of fun for low dollars!

When I saw that this was coming out, I knew I had to get it. BATTLETOADS! This was one of my favorite games growing up. To have the NES version and the arcade version were worth the price of admission. Otherwise, you cannot beat 30 games for 30 bucks!

Can't go wrong with so many classics on one disc for $30. Some games aren't so great, but others definitely make up for it. Be aware that only the 360 games can be played online, all the rest have to be on the same console if you want to do any co-op.

These games are classics, but a nice colleciton over all. The graphics are about the same but now available on the xbox one. I have wanted to try a lot of these games but never got the chance back in the day. This is convenient and provides a whole new set of achievements. I recommend it.

This collection of games form developer Rareware is a must-own for anyone with an Xbox One. Containing some of the best games ever made, specifically N64 games, it really shouldn't be missed.
Banjo Kazooie, Banjo-Tooie, Blast Corps! Need I say more?

It's a lot of fun to go back to old games like these. For the price point, it's hard to beat the value. Some of these games still hold up with time, and some don't, but there's 30 games so you have lots of choice. The camera angles on some of the old N64 games are a little jarring at first.

This is a great collection of some really great games. I would say there's about 15 really solid titles on here. The rest are OK. But those 15 solid titles make this collection worth buying, especially if you find it on sale at Best Buy for $20.

This is a great collection of games for the price. Many of these were games that I grew up playing, and through this collection I found that I still have a great time with them. Just too bad it doesn't include some of the best Rare games like Goldeneye and the Donkey Kong Country series.

What can I say? This disc has many of my childhood favorites on it including the classic, brutally hard Battletoads! From Banjo Kazooie to Perfect Dark to Jet Force Gemini, this game is a must have for any hardcore gaming collection. BUY THIS GAME!

If you (like myself) were born too late to enjoy the classics of gaming look no further. Rare games have always been great and this collection shows you why. Some games don't hold up well over time but they are still fun to try for a couple minutes. Otherwise a great overall collection.

I thought this was an excellent buy as many of the games in this collection I completely forgot about and enjoy. It reinvigorated me to going back to play some of these games which the Pinata game is one example of a game I just forgot about
