- JoEBlack982, on 05/11/2008, -5/+85Banjo reminds me now of something out of a horror film than the lovable character I remember him as on N64,
- royalboyle, on 05/11/2008, -5/+82False. Viva Pinata was spectacular.
- YellowSnowDemon, on 05/12/2008, -2/+68If you can outgrow Banjo, you have no soul.

- kaythecraven, on 05/11/2008, -3/+50Looks sweet. The Kazooie games were some of my favorite on the 64.
[reminisces about the days of old] - Repeater2000, on 05/11/2008, -11/+55I can't wait!!! I have this at the ready for just such an occasion:

- JayD16, on 05/11/2008, -1/+41That's never going to happen. Too much of a legal headache.
- Shissy, on 05/11/2008, -12/+54Banjo-Kazooie and Banjo-Tooie really need to come out on the XBLA; or even the VC if they would allow it.
- EDmAN, on 05/11/2008, -31/+69Rare has sucked since Nintendo and Rare split. Plain and simple, they used to be my favorite developer, but after all the best employees of the company had already left, Nintendo was right to let that contract go. Not to mention it takes them forever to get anything to the market. Plus, its been so long since a Banjo game came out, I'm afraid I've out grown it. They should have left this one alone and did something new.
- Pillage, on 05/11/2008, -1/+31It would be nice to get a few decent platformers on the 360.
- YellowSnowDemon, on 05/12/2008, -0/+26Yeah, why the ***** is his nose square-ish? Banjo would have looked great if they used the same model that was on the cover of the old games. Just a highly detailed version of the old Banjo.
- inactive, on 05/12/2008, -7/+32You can just emulate it on your PC for free.

- timdorr, on 05/12/2008, -4/+24Without the suck.
- YellowSnowDemon, on 05/12/2008, -1/+19Can't say the same for Donkey Kong, but I 100%'d Banjo-Kazooie and enjoyed every second of it. That game had so much charm, and the music was absolutely fantastic.
- rjhomuth, on 05/11/2008, -1/+17Mumbo ftw.
- cl2yp71c, on 05/11/2008, -0/+16Time to download the N64 emulator and relive my glorious childhood.
- gamer31, on 05/12/2008, -1/+17i tired to 100% banjo-Kazooie, but i couldnt find 3 ***** music notes in click clock wood. Those 3 notes haunted my dreams for months and as a kid with nothing better to do, I spent days looking for them.
I guess 102% Donkey Kong 64 makes up for the 99.9% in banjo-kazooie.
I really miss my N64 now :( - Xspire, on 05/12/2008, -1/+16I dugg this comment down for giving me creepy ass mental images.
- inactive, on 05/12/2008, -1/+18Is it a racing game? At least it looks pretty...

http://i248.photobucket.com/albums/gg181/xblah/oth ... - GinaJuice, on 05/12/2008, -2/+16Its sad to see Rare these days and what they've become since the Nintendo era. Banjo-Kazooie brings some of my fondest gaming memories from the N64 days. God loved those games.
I really hope this game doesn't suck. If its any good it will be a system seller for me. But judging Rare's record lately... : ( - micman52, on 05/12/2008, -1/+15Yes! This game must hold the secret to the ever elusive Stop N' Swop!!!
- AmICoolNow, on 05/12/2008, -1/+13I played Banjo Kazooie a couple weeks ago, it's impossible to outgrow.
- steppinrazor, on 05/12/2008, -0/+12wua wua wuaaa wua wua wuaaaa wuaaaaaaa (Press A)
- Tayls, on 05/12/2008, -1/+13Please don't suck, please don't suck. (fingers crossed)
- Frozenlynx, on 05/12/2008, -2/+13Banjo looks awfully ugly in that top picture
- jmnz, on 05/12/2008, -1/+12I wouldn't say that Conker was a failure - that game was great
- MillionsLivio, on 05/12/2008, -0/+10The 360 controller works great.
- posure, on 05/12/2008, -1/+10And make me turn my Wii on? How dare you.
- ImpoliteAndEvil, on 04/06/2009, -0/+8Looks great, hope it's as fun as it looks. The first Banjo for N64 was a lotta fun back in the day, but times have changed and I hope they realize that. I hope they can keep us hardcore gamers happy- not just the casual gamers.
- Outsanity, on 05/12/2008, -23/+35am i the only who thinks B-K 3 (maybe Conker's BFD and Perfect Dark) would be better on the Wii than Xbox?
- Tigergrape, on 05/12/2008, -1/+9NEW STUFF IS ALWAYS LEAKED!
Did these screenshots get released to the press, i think they did. Theres no leak.
! - bagboyrebel, on 05/12/2008, -3/+10Microsoft owns Rare, and Banjo is one of their best franchises, so I doubt that would happen. And as for Conker, I doubt Nintendo would ever allow another game like that on their console since they weren't even happy about the first one.
- Zaneris, on 05/12/2008, -0/+7Rare... and um... ware... y'know, like software?
- mult1task, on 05/12/2008, -2/+9That looks horrible.
- eazhar, on 05/12/2008, -1/+8okay sell HAL to MS so we can get mother 3 and 4?
- AmICoolNow, on 05/12/2008, -0/+7Thank God! The game won't be butchered.
- Repeater2000, on 05/12/2008, -1/+9Yes, and guess which project started work a little over 3 years ago?
- latova, on 05/12/2008, -1/+9They already killed Perfect Dark and I doubt they're going to stop there.
- Repeater2000, on 05/12/2008, -4/+11*****. It is one of THE best strategy games in the past 10 years.
- iSamurai, on 05/12/2008, -0/+6So basically the only good game out of Rare in a while is the one made by the banjo guys...That adds hope to this project
- HappyScrappy, on 05/11/2008, -2/+8Not gonna happen. RARE was owned by Nintendo at the time, and N retains the rights.
- MasterPlayer, on 05/12/2008, -1/+7Rare, please don't ***** up one of my favorite game franchises growing up!
- ritzcracker, on 05/12/2008, -0/+6I would kill for another Conker's Bad Fur Day
- Xspire, on 05/12/2008, -0/+6Yes. Put a ski mask on him and I would confuse this game for the new Splatterhouse remake coming out.
- Xspire, on 05/12/2008, -3/+11why did you get dugg down for this comment? I can guarantee anyone who has an internet connection and had an NES, SNES, N64, Genesis, GB, GBC, GBA has downloaded roms
