Veteran of the gaming industry George Andreas has left Microsoft for Rare. His new role of creative director at Sony Computer Entertainment Europe has begun. Andreas was a stable of Rare for years working on games like Killer Instinct Gold, Donkey Kong 64, GoldenEye, Viva Pinata, and Banjo Kazooie. 

I loved Rare growing up. That gold emblem meant a lot to me as a kid and teenager. Of course this was all before Microsoft bought them out and turned them in the Kinect Sport factory they are now. Rare is a mere shell of their former self. I can see why Andreas finally decided it was time to go. I want to wish him good luck, along with the guys over at Flippin Pixels, who are composed of former Microsoft Rare employees.
