All vehicle stuff for now, but expect tons more in the coming days. Banjo games

Also, if these get pulled, I have them saved so I'll just rehost 'em.

Holy crap.

The shots are a bit dull for right now, but I'm expecting a ton of shit to be coming in the next few days that will blow my mind at least. Rare is just a fucking beast at graphics engines.

Fuck GAF, seriously. A ton of posters are already screaming foul, saying this game is copying Little Big Planet.

Looks pretty nice so far. If this game has relatively straight and linear platform levels, and less collectathon stuff, I'll be extremely interested...

If this were a PS3 game GAF would be constructing golden PR statues in its honor.

Hell, it'd probably already have its own official thread and banner. *shudders*

Don't worry SDF. Just follow this advice -

No gaf here please

Banjo actually coming out is too good to be true. Maybe I'll play BK2 this summer for the first time, is it worth trudging through the bad frame rate?

pilonv1 · « **Reply #9 on:** May 11, 2008, 11:48:21 AM »

typical straw logic from SDF. nevermind Banjo will probably be out before LBP.

now when do we find out about xaggle

Hitler Stole My Potato · « **Reply #10 on:** May 11, 2008, 11:51:53 AM »

So I wonder - do you actually build these vehicles? Judging from the gear themed website of theirs and the ramshackle homer-esque design of the boat and plane in these shots I'm thinking that the game might let you build them for yourself - like legos. It'd be kinda cool to see that happen.

I know its off topic but someone just posted a bunch of uncharted pics in that thread for no reason

Darunia · « **Reply #14 on:** May 11, 2008, 12:05:13 PM »

aah wait

the first screen shows flowers with springs for stems. Maybe every organic thing in the world has been changed into mechanic bric a bric which you then use to create stuff. collectathon aspect explained

pilonv1 · « **Reply #15 on:** May 11, 2008, 12:07:22 PM »

or that could just be one of the themed levels? its an interesting concept

maybe the xaggle controls are used to simulate using tools to build them?

The first two were, I think, the two best platformers of the N64 era. Totally slaughtered Mario 64–but a lot of people have an admitedly complained that they were collectathons. They were, but not nearly as bad as people make it out to be. Wasn't as bad as Donkey Kong 64.

Great platformers. Check the first one out at the very least.

The original N64 games were 3-d platformers in the vein of Mario 64. I never played the sequel, but I loved the original. The levels were more interesting and complex than Mario 64.

Looks really big! Look at how tiny Banjo is.

I don't get how people think this looks like LBP, aside from the fact that it has bright colors or the heavy use of depth of field (blurring of the background) in the first pic.

MCD · « **Reply #33 on:** May 11, 2008, 01:09:12 PM »

hopefully the game isn't 2d like that, i want lovely 3d platforming

Ok, you guys really need to drop the whole martyr shit. It fit right in on NeoGAF (as both camps used it all the time), but here? Get over yourselves, really.

Game looks good, can't wait to see it in motion.

Quote from: mojovonio on May 11, 2008, 12:18:53 PM

It kind of is.

Are there any shots here that I'm missing? I'm not seeing the "best ever" here. Ratchet upped the bar quite a bit, and nothing here seems to make short work of that. Not saying other stages (or hell, angles) couldn't change that, but this? I'm not seeing it.

Tieno · « **Reply #35 on:** May 11, 2008, 01:29:40 PM »

Looks like Banjo in the screens is within some kind of "Trueman Show" ish environment, the background sky has scanlines.

Yeah... wouldn't that really make it more of a Viva Piñata "rip-off" then anyway?

Not sure why people can't just be happy right now. We have gotten trailers, screens and footage from all sorts of awesome games, from Little Big Planet and Banjo here, to Killzone 2 and Gears of War 2, yet "people" seem to be more bitter than ever. Weird.

bachikarn · « **Reply #41 on:** May 11, 2008, 01:47:59 PM »

This looks really really good, but I remember being really into Banjo games and then one day realizing how much they suck. Way too much collecting crap (although not as bad as DK64). Hopefully they turned that shit down.

Van Cruncheon · « **Reply #42 on:** May 11, 2008, 01:59:24 PM »

people are bitter because there is no clear technically superior platform between the ps3 and the 360, and that HURTS

If there's indeed some (limited) vehicle building then that has got to play into multiplayer. We know there's going to be an online component but no traditional mp like in shooters, probably co-op.

Ok, I'm now even more convinced Banjo is going to take place in some kind of 'fake worlds'.

-The X06 trailer: Banjo crashes into a fake background

-One of the possible storylines that Rare gave said something about Banjo being in worlds of imagination.

-The recent screenshots with the fake TV-screen background (scanlines), stitched together ground and past-on wall posters.
