spect8re's Banjo-Kazooie (Nintendo 64) review

The most fun platformer on the N64

Coming after the greatest 3D platformer of all time has got to be one of the most daunting prospects for any game but Banjo-Kazooie handles it with aplomb. While Super Mario 64 had an air of familiarity about it, this game came up for from nowhere to almost steal its platforming crown. Introducing us to two of the most fun and likeable gaming characters from the N64 days, the game's story while not as strong as it could have been lends itself to an amazing selection of colourful worlds, fun challenges and a great deal of items to collect. Level design is topnotch and although none of the characters speak properly, there is a certain charm to them. Interesting bosses also help to further the game towards its entertaining finale. I'm certainly looking forward to picking this title up on Xbox Live Arcade in the near future

Banjo-Kazooie is a platform game released in 1998 for the Nintendo 64 by the British developers Rareware, who at the time made games exclusively for Nintendo. Banjo-Kazooie follows the same formula as Super Mario 64, someone has been captured, in this case it's Banjo's sister Tooty, and it's up to Banjo and his best friend Kazooie to save her. Banjo and Kazooie are an odd pair to put it politely; Banjo is a lazy bear that doesn't like hard work and who sleeps all day, and Kazooie, well she is a ...
