On the other hand i have a new-found respect for you leo, being a fellow banjo-enthusiast. It'll be interesting to see what kind of DLC will be available for BK3, i'd expect some with it being made by a first party

Mario 64 and Banjo Kazooie were the best platformers of that generation...

Banjo would certainly be the game that tips me to buy a 360.

Bet with disolitude: Left4Dead will have a higher Metacritic rating than Project Origin, 3 months after the second game's release.  (hasn't been 3 months but it looks like I won :-p )

After almost a year of absence, they really have to show a playable demo of one of the mid-levels, showing new crazy weapons and moves, old characters like Mumbo, Boggy, etc, very soon. I hope theuy unveil it either at Leipzig or at the Canada event they`ll have soon. Hopefully the game will be ready for mid 08...just in time for a $200 core maybe?

Wasn't Nintendo the ones that sold Rare?


Correct me if i'm wrong, but i would recall, that Nintendo never owned more than 49% of Rare. Or was it that Nintendo owned just above 50%, but sold a couple of percent of shares back to Rares founders, leaving Nintendo with less than 50% share, and then Micro$oft bought the 50%+ share from Rares founders. And then Nintendo basically didn't have any other choice, that sell their share of Rare.

Eikä Japanisti.

Nintendo games sell only on Nintendo system.

Yes Nintendo owned 51 % of Rare. They sold their share to Microsoft because they thought Rare wasn't as essential anymore as they were while the N64 aera and before. And i think they're right, nothing Rare has done after they were sold to M$ could match their previous work...

 I loved Conkers as well, partly because it raped nintendos 'kiddy' image for a while. XD

Why cant I get a 360?
 We all know from your past posts that you are waaaaay too far down the Sony path to even consider a 360.

 



I hate trolls.

Systems I currently own:  360, PS3, Wii, DS Lite (2)
Systems I've owned: PS2, PS1, Dreamcast, Saturn, 3DO, Genesis, Gamecube, N64, SNES, NES, GBA, GB, C64, Amiga, Atari 2600 and 5200, Sega Game Gear, Vectrex, Intellivision, Pong.  Yes, Pong.

Being a European developer, it wouldn't be shocking to get new information on the game at Leipzig next week.  (For the record, endimion, there will be no X07.)

And you can sign me up for the BK love fest.  They were great games for the N64.  Never played the GBA one though..
