    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.

    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 :DOH: ) 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 :p

    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 o_O

    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)

    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??:p

    My excitement for this game took a nosedive after seeing the video on gamevideos. The framerate was not all that peachy. :(

    Thank God indeed. I've been waiting for a nice platform game for 360 since I got it (didnt' like Kameo).
