I came.

{EDIT 1} For the people concerned with vehicles...From the GameSpot Preview:

"While the game's worlds are large enough to make using vehicles essential, you'll still be able to explore lots of areas on foot, making use of Kazooie's abilities to achieve certain objectives."

Because banjo-kazooie without kazooie would be like... Banjo.

And banjo alone wouldn't sell very well.

Because Kazooie is a main Character and you can usually switch between the two in the previous games, also Kazooie held one of the weopons at the begining of the video.

I think I know that, I played the original on N64. Anyway, watching this video I'm disappointed on the direction they went for because I wanted a platformer and it seems like they made it into some kind of 360 version platformer. I'm still interested, but disappointed.

I went one step further in another thread, why is Banjo in the game? Could they not have just made a new franchise? Using Banjo in a vehicle/minichallenge/shooting games is going to really piss off a lot of the old fans of Banjo who were hoping for 360's first real platformer.

I had to correct you because Kazooie is Female, and you said hes but it could've easily been a typo since all you have to do is put an s before hes.

Don't get me wrong, I'm still interested and that one video that is entirely based on the driving elements of the game isn't enough for me to fully judge...but yeah I would have appreciated a traditional platformer but at the same time I understand why they wanted to try something new. The platformer is a generally dead genre.

It still seemed like it had tradional platforming elements to it. I think that they put heavy emphsis on the vehicles because they are a new element to the series, and they are trying to show that part off the most.

I'm lovin what is I've now seen and read.

Zeldamaster, if you want to, include the link for " GS hands on preview " they just posted and the MODS can lock my thread and keep it all here. :)

The hands on should shed more light on the game-play for those thinking the platforming has somehow been left out - it hasn't !

It is still a Platformer the Vehicles were primarily shown for that trailer since it is a new element to the game but it is still a Platformer.

Exactly. The vid was to focus on the new elements of the game. I bet they will show more stuff on traditional platforming later

Lots =/= most.

Lots of area just won't make it for me.

I've played the first two banjos on my N64(I still have them and they work)

I don't mind having vehicles as a feature, but if 80% of the game isn't regular banjo platforming, I'm not buying this.

Ok that's cool. Still they should shown more of that in the trailer. That's what I want to see.

So if the game is extremly fun you are not buying it. Even if the game gets AAA reviews and might be considered to best platformer ever. Not saying it will be the best, but if it gets that tagline why would you write it off.

Also lots of areas should be enough. It is called balance. How are you not excited about creating your own vehicles based off your own imagination.

From the trailers I've seen, all vehicles stuff doesn't looks very fun to me.

So far it doesn't look like a game I would enjoy.

I'll be able to know when its fully released, but so far its not looking good IMO.

Yeah that's pretty sad. If he thinks Banjo is horrible than I wonder what he thought of this generations Ratchet game.

I completely agree, this is not the AAA game ive heard from lemming's as one of the defining titles which breaks the trend of FPS's being the staple on 360.

SO banjo is a FPS now. For the love of God it still has it original; platforming stuff and added situations where you can use a vehicles. what is there not to like.

No platformers are where they are because suddenly game developers became unoriginal and tried to keep up with the changes in the game market by making dull platform hybrids. Mario Galaxy proves you can still make an amazing platformer without putting weapons in it. People won't get bored of the game if you use some originality and make the puzzles fun and different, rather than making the game 25% platforming and the rest shooting, racing, etc like in Ratchet and Clank. Not that those games are bad, played my first one yesterday and it's really fun, but it feels nothing like a platformer.
