So the new Banjo-Kazooie game is some kind of vehicle racing/battle game with some platforming.

And at the end of the trailer, they blow up a Mario structure. Shocked Rare, don't you remember what we had together!?... oh what has our relationship become!?!?!



(oh, and as you can see, I added a [gamevideos] bbcode tag.

It's not a racing game, the vehicles are used for adventuring, it's more like a sandbox adventure platformer.

Full details on the game at Rare's site. It sounds amazing so far.

(Also, I love Mario and all, but I found the blowing of his head off amusing jab. Gregg Mayles (director of all three Banjos) is actually playing and enjoying Galaxy, I think they were just trying to be funny. :p)

Doesn't really sound like platforming has much to do with it

I was hoping for another Banjo adventure, but this still seems pretty damn awesome. Fully customizable vehicle exploration, that sounds fun.

The graphics will take some getting used to, but otherwise, this game looks AWESOME!

That's amazing! I don't care if there's less platforming, this is an incredibly clever game...

I'm afraid I'll have to be the opposite on most of you guys.

I always liked the old Banjo and Kazooie. This new game is horrific. The graphics just look unbearable[pun not intended] to me. Kazooie looks to feminie(even though she is) and Banjo looks too blocky. I also don't like the idea of vehicles. I mean, sure, custom building vehicles is fun, but it's not what the Banjo-Kazooie series was meant for. And what's up with that greem light that Kazooie uses? WTF is that supposed to be? And for as far as I saw, they used no eggs. I was probably not paying attention, but I deffinetly saw no eggs.

Even though this is a Banjo-Kazooie title, it's not going to be pretty.

So just because it has new gameplay elements means it sucks?

No, that's not what I'm saying. It's not a new gameplay element, it's a completely different concept. I'm saying Microsoft ruined the old concept of Banjo-Kazooie, to be a platformer. It's golden days were in platforming, just the same is Mario. Would YOU like it if they gave Mario guns and shot Koopas and Goombas in the face? If I said new game play elements made it sucky I would of hated Banjo-Tooie and the Banjo racing game thing.

Those comparisons would make sense if it was a first-person shooter or indeed, even any kind of shooter primarily.

Which it's not. It's an adventure game with a focus of building and using vehicles to accomplish tasks.

There are no guns. It's still a platformer, you just use vehicles as a main type of transport.




Watch this.
