    It seems like Rare is working on a new game, and it might be something that actually gets fans excited.

    Xbox boss Phil Spencer visited the studio today, and he posted a blatant tease on his Twitter account:

    “Got to play the new @RareLtd game today. Rare building a uniquely Rare game, as it should be. Great visit to the studio.”

    Rare has been sadly churning out Kinect-focused games since 2008, although they were known for the infamously hard NES game, Battletoads.

    Would it excite the nostalgia cockles of your heart to know that a new trademark for Battletoads was filed by Microsoft, back on November 5th?

    You know what they say—everything old is new again.
