Banjo-Kazooie has always been E+, so I'm not really sure what you are talking about.

i mean it in the way that it is REALLY E+, not just E+,
according to tv ratings the scale goes
Y Y7 Y7FV G PG 14 MA
eC E E10 T M Ao
this game is E bordering on eC
B+K never tried for a cartoony appeal in the past, it was just pretty much all that was available to them without being Teen. This is like i jumped into a toy bin. this feels more kiddy than little nemo's dreamland for nes.
Then again you must understand that this is just my opinion. maybe i have just myself grown up and past games were also filled with daisies and non-sharp baby friendly edges that i just don't remember.

What difference does it make if a game is rated E+ instead of E?
|
i you are seriously asking and you have no idea what you are talking about, then maybe you ask in a nicer way because right now it looks like you are trying to discredit me, and to anyone who has played B+K, there is a LOT of innuendo, both violet, sexual, and the like. it was a T game that made it into an E+ game.
that was the thing about B+K and later the same team who made Conker. it was a cartoony looking game with adult-ish humor. so again instead of
"what difference does it make"
you can write
"what is the difference?"
because you obviously don't know.....
however, if the game includes this same kind of stuff, then I will stop talking right here... but it doesn't seem like that is the direction they are pursuing.

Without playing the game, how do you know that the same sort of innuendo in the first two is not present in this one? I would guess that they tried to keep the writing similar.
It was not a "T game that made it into a E game". The original two games were both E rated. Innuedo is allowed in because it goes over the heads of the little kids. Think about something like Shrek. Kids like it because it is a slapstick cartoon/fairytale, and the adults appreciate all the little jokes. All this while maintaining a kid friendly rating.
Also, it has been awhile since I've played these games, but I don't remember that much innuendo. Of course there is violence as you said. You are constantly fighting enemies, but that is in every game. And the violence in this game is cartoon violence.

however, if the game includes this same kind of stuff (innuendo), then I will stop talking right here... but it doesn't seem like that is the direction they are pursuing. im sorry rep i'm not trying to be combatative but i do appreciate when people read what i write before responding to it. i did write this, and then you asked me how do i know that innuendo is not going to be included.
as for the writing, and the direction, rare has and always was a genius endeavor of the stamper brothers, and since they have left, they haven't done anything correctly.
as far as innuendo, they did have bold faced stuff too. just go to youtube and type in "banjo kazooie e?" there's plenty, some is conspiracy stuff, some is blod faced, like where kazooie asks a tree, whom describes himself as shriveled, how his nuts are.
you should check it out. but i have always remembered B+K to be a little more than a kids game. remember this was at a time when the censors weren't really in full swing. They slipped a lot of stuff in there that you just don't realize maybe.
