Do you think Banjo 3 will be about as good as SMG?

I'm hoping so. Rare has done some pretty good stuff with the Xbox.

It could be. On the N64 they were both pretty close just this time around Rare can't make ita giat collectithon because thats below today's standards.

Well...

From the one trailer that's been revealed over a year ago I can say without a doubt it'll be the best platformer ever made.

...

But seriously we can't possibly know until it's released.

I doubt it. Not because Banjo 3 will suck, but because SMG just seems to be extremely good.

I'm really excited to see what a 360 version of banjo could do. Not so much pretty graphics, which are still nice, but things like level design and gameplay, which have the potential to be expanded in interesting ways.

Im a sheep btw, although I have a 360

Really. I wasn't excited about Banjo until recently but my interest has gone up. i just remembered the N64 one and now I'm excited for a good one on the Xbox.

I'm glad that SMG came out before Banjo because now they can steal all the good stuff and make an even better game. Heh heh heh.

Hopefully it will be up to par, I mean the original 2 were both better than mario 64. Not to mention most of the same team is working on the project. I expect massive levels of awsomeness and nothing less.

those games were not better in any quality way to mario 64, they just expanded the content. Still awesome gameplay preserved and the end result is that they were as much an adventure game as it was a platformer, whereas mario was more of a pure platformer

I'm sorry, but SMG raised the bar and Banjo 3 will most likely be more of the same. Unless Banjo 3 is in space, SMG > Banjo 3.

This is coming from someone who thinks that Banjo Kazooie > Mario 64. Although Mario 64 deserves more credit.

but you never know

i just feel that RARE have lost a lot of their magic, and have yet to reach the high standards of the N64 era again

That's because Nintendo used to have them delay games, Microsoft have been giving them strict deadlines.

Deadlines don't work with Rare. It's basically the same people who made the original Banjo-Kazooie games working on 3, it's just Microsoft needs to get off their back.

I can see it getting the same score, but it definitely won't be on the same level as SMG.

I think the only people who could have any idea at this stage are the developers.

I'm hoping though, considering it comes out a year after

banjo series sucks. Yes I said it. It is a mediocre super mario 64 game, with broken control, and better graphics.

Funny, apart from the brand new mario galaxy, console mario games hadn't done anything in the last 5 years either.

How quickly we forget the facts :roll:

I don't know what "level" Super Mario Galaxy is on, seeing as I haven't played it yet, and I know next to nothing about Banjo Threeie, so I really can't say.

We need more info on banjo. SMG really surprised me on how good it is. If Rare delivers and does a good job with it, I would say that it should be just as good if not better of a game.

Great logic there smart guy.

That's not what he said. Rare have not made a great game since Conker's Bad Fur Day. Nothing since -- Starfox Adventures, Grabbed by the Ghoulies, Live and Reloaded, PDZ and Viva Pinata -- has been on the same level as there greater games from the N64 days. It's not exactly 10 years, but it has been a long time. They used to be my favorite developers, but I'll probably lose interest in them if Banjo-Kazooie 3 doesn't return to that level of greatness (it's one of the main reasons that I purchased a 360).

SMG was not surprising to me that it was good. I always thought it would be ever since people found out that it was going back to the old Mario 64 roots. All Rare has to do is go back to Banjo Kazooie on N64 and make up some kind of gimmicky thing ie spherical planets/gravity/galaxy etc and they will get themselves a fantastic game. Knowing Rare, I have full confidence since I absolutely loved playing Kameo. They seem to be good at platformers.

as much as i'd like that to happen, i seriously think it'll be a flop (not a bad flop.. but just not 9.0+) . i love banjo games and always found them to be unique and fresh, but i cant see Rare surpassing their previous works.

btw..does the new banjo look freak out any else?

If im not mistaken the old Banjo games scored higher on here than Mario 64 did. So it's possible. Then again it's been a really long time since a Banjo game was out so it's hard to say. I hope they deliver, the 360 needs good platformers.

If the team can tap back to the other two games in quality, I say, "$%@! yes."
