I never thought I would say this. I hate platformers with a passion, and the mascotts that go with them. But Banjo-Kazooie looks interesting.
god I cannot wait for banjo. I'm admittedly a little disappointed that it's not going to be a real platformer... but the videos have won me over.
It's another good year to be a 360 owner.
I was waiting for BK 2 until I saw the videos. Now I don't know. I need real feedback on whether it's an evolution or a screwup.
