When One Hero Kills Another…Presenting the Banjo Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts trailer!
There you have it, folks! The first teaser for Banjo Kazooie 3 (Or Banjo Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts). It seems as if the game will nearly entirely revolve around vehicles - building them and using them. The style looks as good in motion as it did in the leaked screens. However, Nintendo fans are up in arms over the fact Banjo blows Mario’s head off at the end of the teaser. Rare once developed for Nintendo until Nintendo sold them off. This seems like a grudging slap in the face. Nonetheless, the game is what’s important. It’s a bit of a 180 from where the series was at previously but it’s probably too soon to jump to conclusions.
However, one can only wonder what happened to the Banjo-of-old style we saw two years ago in this trailer:
Rare’s creative changes or Microsoft’s infiltration in order to have a 360 game that would rival Ratchet & Clank? Time will tell…for another video of more gameplay (with some actual platforming elements) keep reading after the jump!

While the graphics and all look amazing, I can’t help but feel a tad dissapointed that the series is taking such a radical turn. I was hoping for some platforming goodness like back in the N64 days of Banjo/Mario 64 but instead it seems almost like part vehicle combat part platformer…which might end up being really good you never know because the vehicle creation seems very open ended. Why am I complaining though? its a new damn Banjo Kazooie game, I can’t wait!
