New Banjo Kazooie video!

And here it is.

It looks to have a very different set-up when compared to earlier games. It's interesting that Mario's in there, though, and the DKC Trees.

This looks pretty funky. I love Banjo Kazooie for the 64!

The fact that Rare is making it is a good sign. Also, I remember playing the original on the N64 and having fun. It'll be interesting to see where this goes.

This looks vastly different from Banjo-Kazooie of old.

Basically seems like Microsoft said, ok take your banjo-kazooie and make it more mature but still light hearted. Big machines that shoot and blow stuff up seems like a pretty good way to do that. I don't suspect it'll be very similar to the previous games at all though, and therefore have no interest in it.

THE JACKAL

The first two Banjo Kazooie games were basically Mario 64 with more filler and Rare has only gone downhill since then. I don't have very high hopes for this game.

Also, GameVideos has been being awful to me all day so I haven't seen the video, but from what I hear, the last part is a bunch of penis wagging. This kind of thing needs to stop. The industry is full of it these days and it's a load of crap.

I don't exactly like how it looks. It looks like they're trying to make it the next Ratchet and Clank or something, what with all of the mechanical stuff. It's nice that they're making another game in the series, because I loved the original game, but I'm not holding my breath.

I disagree. Rare was a brilliant developer for the N64 and the games they made after Banjo-Kazooie for that console (Perfect Dark, Jet Force Gemini, Donkey Kong 64) were brilliant. Downhill since they stopped making N64 games, yes; downhill from Banjo-Kazooie, no. I really found Banjo-Kazooie to be a more enjoyable a game that Mario 64.

As for the trailer itself, not sure what I make of it. Reminds me of Kingdom Hearts what with the making your own vehicle from the parts you've got. It looks really interesting; not at all what I expected from a Banjo game (which might be slightly disappointing), but it doesn't look like a disaster thus far.
