Hopefully it's Banjo Threeie and not a spin-off. I feel like Banjo Threeie could sell quite a few Xbox One's to longtime Nintendo fans.

Being one of those longtime Nintendo fans with an Xbox, I'd love to be excited about a new Banjo game. However, I'm just very skeptical right now. When you take Rare's track record of the last few years & Banjo Nuts and Bolts into consideration, I'm just not ready to hype myself up for this game before I see it in action. Hopefully things turn out well though.

Yeah I agree with you but I don't think there track record is bad at all, the problem is they have not been able to do something as big as they did in their early days. People have that mind set where they think Rare to be a very great developer so there are expectations are also high they have just not able to hit those expectations with their games. The titles they released in last few years are good if you ask me but the problem is those games were not what fans wanted. Fans wanted a proper Banjo game but they went with a spin-off which in my opinion was excellent (game not decision)

I want them to do a  new Banjo but a reboot of the franchise so that they can craft there own Banjo since the team at Rare is now very different. Add new things but besides that don't forget what makes Banjo unique. I am also very doubful about the rumour because the job postings do not hint at any platformer so I think it is not Banjo if it is then it will be a bit different or something else.

Nintendo and Banjo fans will  only come and join Xbox if reviews are good for Banjo that will only happen if game is good



I think a New Bnajo was/is inevitable.
If they are going to redo PD, then Banjo is a safe bet! Interested to see it, hope we get an E3 reveal :)

Speaking from someone who has played Rare games on xbox, Kameo, Viva Pinatas, Conker: Live & Reloaded, and Viva Pinatas: Trouble in Paradise were all exellent.

Perfect Dark Zero was good, nothing amazing. Banjo Nuts & Bolts was actually good, just not what people wanted in Banjo.  Good for a spinoff, just not a smart move to make a spinoff of a game MSFT hasnt officially tried to re-establish yet.

Then you have Killer Instinct. IM not even going to comment on it since you all hear me talk about enough as is.

Anyways, no they arent the Naughty Dog of the industry they once were back in the 90s. However they have been making good and solid games outside of a few bad decisions, (Ghoulies, Banjo Spinoff, KSR).

Horizon deserves more praise to me than the main tag series. I kinda wish they would make that one the main series, but that will never be sadly. I do hope we get Horizon 3 though and that sales are decent for them.

I guess Forza Mororsport 6 will be 2016. I really hope they don't release it next year...
Give it some development time to put out a great game.

Why not give it a separate name and make it bigger accompanied with more development time




I wanted conker first, but why not both right?

Bring it.

Banjo has a bigger fan following so it was more obivious to get banjo first

Conker for a late Xbox game sold quite well imo, but I see your point of course.
