Okay - it's not really a platformer but it is a really fun game!

I tried the demo of this on Xbox Live and basically thought - Beh! But then, I looked around online and read that yes, it's not a platformer!! I tried the demo again with an open mind this time and had loads of fun!

Obviously, I then went and bought it!

I must say, I think it is one of the best games on the Xbox 360!! The amount of joy I've had making weird contraptions to do quests. It rewards you for using your imagination. If you're stuck on a quest, chances are there's a simple way to do it, and when you find that out it's truly "lightbulb appearing above head" stuff!

I tried both Banjo games on N64 and thought they were good. BUT! I think this is better!! It's a truly original game and anyone who bashes it because it's not Banjo Tooie with more levels, really should stop being so pompous and try it with an open mind.

If you are looking for a fun game then give this a go!

And yes, it's not a platformer... Get over it!!!!

    I hate to say it. I hate to type it. But this game is terrible. At a younger age I really enjoyed playing the first banjo-kazooie along with the great sequel. Compared to those two this game is just really disappoint... Read Full Review
