Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts

Being a huge Banjo fan since the original came out in 1998, I thought I'd just say a little about what I think about the new game for the Xbox 360, Nuts & Bolts. Besides a silly name, there really isn't much I dislike about the game, I actually love it. You've probably heard about the change in standard platforming to vehicle based platforming, but trust me, it works very well. The graphics are literally amazing, this is hands down the greatest looking 3D game Rare has ever made, and will hold that title for a while. The car building is INCREDIBLE, it's the greatest part about the game really, because the amount of fun you have is directly linked to how good your vehicles are built. There are over 1,600 parts in the game, so if you're a creative person or you like Legos, this is the game for you. This game won't sell better than games like Gears of War 2 or Fallout 3, which is a shame, but I think that people will definitely notice it soon, and it will be recognized for it's gameplay and unique features.

What I love best about the game is that it is almost a new genre, there has never been a game like this before, which is refreshing in a sea of first-person shooters. Rare is also my favorite game company ever, so if you like them and have been waiting for their next hit, then you don't really need to wait anymore. If you've been waiting for a great platformer with more tan the usual, a hilarious story, and amazing graphics, then GET BANJO. It's only for the Xbox 360, so you kinda need one.

If you already have the game, what do you think of it? If you're planning on getting the game, how do you think it will be? And if you don't plan on getting it, why not?

You know me, I'm never serious about anything, so this is huge. TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK

If i had a 360 i would so get this

Eh... I really hate that Microsoft stole (NOT literally) Rare from Nintendo. But other than that... The game looks nice. And it seems like something I might enjoy somewhat... But the thing I HATE so much about it is Banjo's new design. His. Head. Is. A. Block. It doesn't look good on him at all. So that pretty much keeps me from the game. Even though I don't have a 360 anyway, I wouldn't get it for that reason.

Microsoft also Stole bungie from Sony (Halo was apparently suppose to be on the PS2 until Microsoft bought bungie)


The game looks Very well done I wonder what the achievements are. also Is it just me or do Some parts of Banjo take on a weird block shape.

I tried this game and I liked it gameplay wise. I hate it kinda because it strays too far from the priginal

I got this game the first day (Preordered it), and LOVED it, but two days after I got it, my Xbox got the Red Ring and is still at Microsoft for repairs. I want to play it so bad!

Is it me or does the red ring seem to happen a LOT... (From what I've heard, it seems so.)

I love this game. <3

I love the quirky humor.

I love the ridiculous references.

I love how giant the worlds are.

The only bad thing is there are only 6 worlds. I WANT MORE.

I feel your pain mashey... my xbox got RROD the hour I got mercenaries 2

i love the fact hag shares his banjoism like i do. I have played this game and it has this perfect platforming misture of vehicle and on ground i cant stop loveing. Everything is quirky just like ts suppose to be. It's just a blast from the past to something thats is litturally a blast.

Yes! I've been having a great week for two reason:

1.) I got my Xbox 360 back!

2.) The text patch was released, so now it's MUCH easier to read all the text in the game!

Also, I made a house "vehicle". If you go inside it and go in 1st person mode then you can see all the furniture I made. It's pretty sweet, and I'll try to upload a pic later.
