*sigh* Banjo didnt need a "fresh" approach. Only 2 games were ever made. It only needed a 3rd classic/great 3D platformer.

I would still buy if I was a 360 owner though but my hopes would be low.

 

The developers are on record(I'll hunt for the link later) saying that they started off making the game similar to the first two but that it just didn't feel right, hence the new approach.  At least they have the stones to know when they're making a bad game and rework it, rather than just release shit.  If only more developers took this approach...

 

Well, I think it's more. The Microsoft guys came and told them to make a game that caters to the Xbox and not the Wii demographics...

 

I, for one, am absolutely not interested in the game. I'll get it anyway because I'm a huge Banjo fan and happen to own a 360 but I am not hoping for much.



How many cups of darkness have I drank over the years? Even I don't know...

I would agree with you, but the fact that Viva Pinata exists means that I just can't.

If it doesn't matter then don't mention it.

The game looks like a lot of fun. Definite purchase for me.

Looks good graphically but it doesn't look fun in one single moment of the whole trailer.

Don't think so. Have you seen a moment of actual gameplay in there? I mean if it is a racing game I would expect competitors which are racing against you. If its a Jump&Run I would expect some jumping or enemies, or traps or whatever. As it is it looks more like GTA without the traffic, the enemies, the weapons ...
