Once there was a Bear, a Bird, and a Car? ( X360 )
Banjo Kazooie is, or in some ways should be Microsoft’s platformer mascot. It’s a shame that this game and its characters aren’t the spectacle, or not anymore since the N64 days. But that shouldn’t stop you from getting the newest Banjo Kazooie game because Banjo Kazooie: Nut’s and Bolts is ...

It's the classic Banjo themes and charm... with a twist! ( X360 )
I love the Banjo Kazooie games on the N64, they were two of my favorite games back in the day and some of my fondest memories on the N64 are from those games. I was really excited to hear that there was another Banjo game in the works but, like ...

Just hit it with a wrench! ( X360 )
Banjo and Kazooie have gotten lazy over the years. In their prime they were the top tandem of platforming, but now all they do is lounge around eating junk food, playing video games and getting fat. I suppose in some ways the platforming genre has taken the same lethargic path, ...

I Am Builder! ( X360 )
Behold gamers, the most overlooked and underrated game of 2008. From top to bottom, a complete experience. For the small price that keeps dropping as I write this. You know what is the worst part about it? People wanted something else. Where Banjo succeeds, I can’t recall any other game ...

Nuts! ( X360 )
Banjo Kazooie has long been a charming platformer living under the shadow of Mario. Banjo Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts has come along to change all that. This is done in many ways with the major one being a change in gameplay.  Nuts and Bolts picks up with Banjo and Kazooie ...

An amusing and occasionally hilarious adventure ( X360 )
Banjo Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts is the sequel to Banjo Tooie. However, while the previous installments in the franchise were platforming games in every sense of the word, this new Banjo Kazooie focuses on creating custom vehicles and then using them in various challenges peppered throughout the game worlds.Let your ...

Old meets new and creates something wonderful. ( X360 )
Banjo-Kazooie is a game that is near and dear to the hearts of many fans of the N64, so naturally, Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts received a lot of attention.  What people may not have been expecting is that Nuts and Bolts holds firm very few of the standout characteristics of ...

Whimsical, magical, breathtaking... ( X360 )
It is hard to believe that nearly a decade has passed since RARE released a proper sequel to the Banjo Kazooie series. And if one thing has become apparent, it's that we've come quite far since the days of traditional Mario-influenced platforming. Originally conceptualized as an updated remake of the ...

'Pick up you Magic wrench and start building'. ( X360 )
  Banjo Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts is the next instalment in the Banjo series a 360 exclusive that has changed the core gameplay of the Banjo series from platforming to vehicle based gameplay. Is this reimagining of a platforming classic a good thing? Or is it a massive kick in ...

Banjo Kazooie N&B ( X360 )
I had always liked platforming games. I had also liked racing, flying, and building games. And once I heard about this game I decided to try it. From the hilarious intro to the hundred plus missions, this has to be one of the best games of 2008. Amazingly i wasn't ...

Good on its own, but not as good a Banjo Kazooie game. ( X360 )
Banjo Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts is the latest entry in the Banjo Kazooie series, a series that dates back to the N64. Although it started as a platformer in the vein of Super Mario 64, the latest entry is more of a kart building game than a 3D platformer. And ...

User-generated content for the everyman ( X360 )
One of the recent "buzz phrases" in gaming has been the notion of user-generated content. Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts is a follower of this idea, but perhaps not in the way you might initially think. It strikes a fine middle ground between a rigid mission structure and the freedom of ...
