Wonder how Barcodes feels about this? It's called Banjo Kazooie Nuts and Bolts. http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=11142542&postcount=924 http://kotaku.com/5008803/banjo-kazooie-3-named-detailed I guess it's still rumor but sounds real. So I guess it's a platformer+vehicles? Or mostly vehicles? I dunno. I just ordered the original for N64.
Looks awesome, but I hear its going to focus on using Microsoft's motion controller. If thats true... then... that would suck horribly. I get enough of that gimmicky nonsense on the Wii.
Well, it all depends. If it does use the controller, I dunno. If they pull it off well, it could be awesome. I guess it all depends. Is the original still playable today?
I'm a little disappointed about it myself but I guess this is what its going to be :/. It doesn't seem to have that magic like the past two but I'll finally judge when I pick up the pad and give it a go.
W00t OH MYG000D I HUV T4 G3T TH1Z PLZZZZ We have all been highly disappointed by Rare when they switched from Nintendo to M$.
Wow, in a bad way! Is that it? I mean, is that all there is to the game? Making vehicles and driving them about to complete missions? I think the answer is (or should be) no. The reason lies in the title: Banjo and Kazooie and the duo's combined or seperate abilities don't relate to what's described in the rumour. So, from what I can piece together so far from their Scribes at Rare and this rumour is that: The new banjo title will (I hope for their own sake OH: ) feature the old platforming stuff found on the n64 in addition to lots of vehicle based missions. IF that's the case, I won't mind as much (Although I can't say i m excited about building something in what should be an exploration/platform game) - but this is good enough proof that no future BK game will surpass the N64 versions
Yeah...WEll, I guess we all just wait now. I really want to play a good platformer, but it would be nice if it was a new one. If Rare can pull off graphics on the 360 like they did on the Xbox Conker, but also bring back the classic gameplay, I'll be happy. From what I hear, this is using the Wiimote ripoff.
Fuck me in the neck As you very correctly said, new and improved graphics (hell I d settle for remakes of BT and BK!!!) and old-school 3D platforming plus normal controls would be awesome. I ve got my Wii for motion controls and Galaxy does its job well - it would be foolish for Banjo to go against Galaxy (thru having similar controls)
ahhh 360mote is nothing but a rumor. This will be a plat former/driver nothing more sub0-par at best.
I'm looking forward to this. Never played it on the N64 so this will be a totally new experience for me.
I wouldn't say fuck it. it is a good system. I view it just like the first ps2's they all broke and fast. I am just waiting for them to get the bugs out of it.
so it's a combination of Banjo-Kazooie, Diddy kong Racism and customization? are they trying to hit Mario and Mariokart with a single stone??
Official unveiling: http://xbox360.ign.com/articles/872/872701p1.html No mention of motion controls. Thank God. Also: Game sounds AWESOME! :nod:
My excitement for this game took a nosedive after seeing the video on gamevideos. The framerate was not all that peachy.
adding extra machinery to a previously pure platformer is fail for the franchise, point prove with sunshine. case closed. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z3MetZ62_Uc
Thank God indeed. I've been waiting for a nice platform game for 360 since I got it (didnt' like Kameo).
