I might pre-order Banjo-Kazooie N&B so that I can get the original 64 title (via XBLA) without spending a single point. Do you guys think that Nuts & Bolts will be worth pre-ordering? (of course, if you were to buy them seperately, it would be $60, plus 2 weeks)

I know, but I was saying that if you did not preorder the game, but still want the XBLA port, then it would be $60 total ($40 for N&B + $20 for 1600 pt. card)

Yeah I miss the old 64 days playing Banjo, so I am definitely putting this game high on my list.

You can get the XBL game without putting all of the money down on it, right?

If so, then just go and put like $5 or $10 down (unless you want to pay it all off) and get the xbl game and you can pay the 360 game off later.

are you sure its ganna be 1600 points? I thought it was ganna be 800 like all the others.

my advice is if you are picking up fable 2 or fallout 3 soon to pre order banjo then. its just $5 and when you pick up the game you pay the remaining $35 plus tax. im pre ordering at EB 2morrow hopefully if I have time.

Probably not. Everyone who complain about Rare conveniently ignores Viva Pinata on top of all of Rare's other success on the 360.

It's not going to be 1600 points, but it's not 800 points either - it's 1200.

Nope.

Go for it, how can you say no to Banjo?mitu123

Easy - I've only played it one time at my cousin's house. (I didn't have a N64)

BTW - for those that pre-ordered, do the codes work yet?

I think it's childish as well - but we'll see about that when the TIP demo gets done downloading.

I just hope Banjo (N&B) holds up like you guys say.

Well it's not an "adult" game with bloody violence, swearing and nudity. And with that a lot of people dismiss the game as too childish.. my boyfriend thought it was childish too and then he watched me play and had to have the controller to play himself. it's a very addicting little game... it's one that i go back to from time to time just to build my garden and get pinatas ^.^

You know, I have never played a Banjo-Kazooie game. I mean, I played demos in stores when it came out, but never went beyond that. I love RARE's work though, so I think I'm gonna try it out.

Same here. I hope it's very worth my money (which I'm sure it is).
