Description GUESS WHAT I'VE BEEN PLAYING RECENTLY.

RARE were one of my favourite companies.
They were smart. They were cheeky. They were British.

And since the buyout (and the talent dispersing), they've been relegated to Kinect games with little thought involved, and their excellent IPs dumped into a dark cupboard somewhere. *sigh*

So, yeah. Banjo-Kazooie is awesome.

I need a drink...

Just Xaos-Knjklj has the right amount of syllables.
(Though everyone pronounces my name differently and it's great)

And Knjklj can't learn the talon trot because of his stubby, non-existent legs. >=C

The only thing I don't like is the lazily done Microsoft Logo on the intro.
Looks like they stuck a big white Sticker over Nintendo's logo.

And all round LEGEND of a game. And the sequel is a proper sequel.
You keep all your moves from the first one and the difficulty is increased!

That's exactly it. Just like StarFox Adventures is a good RARE game, but a TERRIBLE StarFox game.
Because it has nothing but the names involved.

Xaos-Wolf In reply to MaikSan [2012-08-10 13:32:03 +0000 UTC]

It summed up the entire game in that sentence, to be honest.

Certainly told you that things were about to get drastically non-canon.

Xaos-Wolf In reply to Diretooth [2012-08-09 23:58:28 +0000 UTC]

The sequel is MUCH harder, and Conker's Bad Fur Day is even harder than that.

The easiest thing to do is 100% every level as you go so that you have all the upgrades.
