Banjo-Kazooie Nuts and Bolts - £24.46 @ Game.co.uk (9% quidco available)


£24.46

278°

FOUND BY: sionyboy 11 months, 2 weeks ago

Best price I've seen so far, been wanting to get my hands on this for a while.

Have a synopsis;

* Customisable experience. With more than 100 contraption parts and unlimited combinations possible, no two players will have the same experience in Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts. By exploring the vast game worlds, discovering hidden secrets, and solving puzzles to win rewards, you will continually find more and more ways to customise and improve your contraptions, creating an unprecedented level of user-generated content for a 3D platform adventure game.
* Fun right out of the box. Don't worry if you aren't the world's greatest inventor or want to skip the workshop and get straight to the action, because Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts comes with a fully loaded experience right out of the box.
* Engaging storyline and entertaining characters. Two of Rare's most beloved characters return from retirement, making their debut on Xbox 360. To win the deed to their homeland and prevent the evil witch Gruntilda from developing it into tower blocks and malls, Banjo and his best friend Kazooie battle over land, sea, and air against their longtime rival.
* Enjoy alone or with friends. Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts offers complete single-player and multiplayer experiences. Play through the adventure alone in the single-player campaign, or play with friends in competitive or cooperative challenges on your own or in teams.

Best price i've seen by far, voted hot+rep added.
I've been advised to play a demo before buying this though. Apparently it's almost completely different from the N64 games, and isnt strictly a platformer anymore.

The game is all about vehicle creation to beat the challenges in the game. The vehicle creation is very open, you are free to create whatever you feel like, from cars, bikes, planes, boats, catapults, tanks.... or a mixture of all of them!

Some examples of what you can create;

Try the demo on XBLM, but the demo really only gives a glimpse at what is available regards to the vehicle creation and the challenges you'll face in the game.

It's apparently very different to the original which I also loved.

Wonder if anyone will get a download code sent in error if they order - like the preorders....

Anyone got this who can tell me if it's really any good?

I loved the originals and love this game. I have played it for 3 or 4 hours so far and would have definitely played it more if not for GOW2, LBP, PES 2009, etc

As mentioned in previous posts, the focus is on vehicles and vehicle challenges but also has platforming elements to it - big thumbs up from me!

Great price!
But its less than FOUR weeks since this came out and its almost half price already!
There really is no point pre ordering games at full price these days, sit back and watch them prices fall!

Ohdearhowsadnevermind.

Still doesn't stop it being a great game.

One of the loading screens even has a suggestion for people like you:
"Miss the platforming action of the original game? Download the original Banjo Kazooie from Xbox Live Arcade".

Good price for a great game, I'm currently hooked trying to 100% it

The loading times can be a bit slow but HDD install perks it up.

I love the 2 games on the N64 but after getting to the vehicle part on the game(demo) I turned it off .
They've also ruined Mumbo Jumbo he looks stupid now, He's a witch doctor not a mechanic.

Rare quit making games now.

Oh and good price for a newish game.

Because a weird Witch Doctor/skull thing didn't look stupid in all the 80 polygons he was originally made of eight years ago.
