>as a yougin' you get one great game and one pretty good game that's dragged down by how bloated it is
>Still, lots of innovation in 2 compared to 1, seems like Rare has big plans to keep raising the bar
>Internally the games creator cares fuck all about the timeless elements and just wants to get the third game over with, even if it means doing a shit remake
>no one else on the Banjo team would dare pull that over their fanbase, so eventually he just decides to take this block/car idea he scribbled on a legal pad in a druken stupor one day and with it effectively remove whatever made Banjo fans get hooked to begin with
>Years later this will be hailed as "genius" and "criminally underrated"
>to "fix" this, Half the team from the original banjo makes an exact remake of the first game, sans the innovation of the second, or any copyrighted materials. Because, "you guys were missing collecting virtual items right? That's what you missed the most!"

You did this to yourself, OP
yooka-laylee
spiritual successor and that is coming out
Being a Rare fan in general is suffering nowadays.
Rare Replay seems nice but i have no reason to own an xbone and probably never will unless a new Banjo comes along. Shit i'd even take a new Viva Pinata, that would make me buy a new xbone right away.
n64 rarekids are the most insufferable kids around
the last good rare game was killer instinct 2, or maybe that pinata game on the xbox.
>SPENCER WANTED BANJO IN
>BANJO WAS WORKED ON FOR MELEE
>BANJO IS GOING TO GET IN!!!!
>SCREENCAP THIS
I wish I did. Get BTFO. I love Banjo Kazoie as well and voted them, but the reasoning to be sure they got in was dumb as fuck.
I also voted Bayonetta, but I didn't think she'd make it in because of sex.
>like thing
>thing 2 is great
>thing franchise progressively turns to shit
>dumb nerds still care for some reason
Riveting.

people like you deserve to be disappointed

I know. I have only myself to blame for delusion
>Half the team from the original Banjo
>Literally jut like 3 artists/animators and 1 actually important guy
When will this meme die?
>>320344873
Fine, like 25%. The point I'm framing is that yeah, not much of the team is there but OOP FROM THE MAKERS OF BANJO KAZOOIE ITS GOTTA BE PERFECT
>tfw desperately want SoT to be good
>tfw it'll probably be just like Viva Pinata and be amazing but nobody will buy it because it's a "kiddy game"
>>320345063
Viva Pinata was for hard motherfuckers.
All the gritty shootan shit coming out around the same time totally stole the spotlight from it. Trouble In Paradise is probably one of my favorite games from last gen.

They made Blast Corps Anon. You'd better step the fuck off

>>320345247
TiP that good? I feel dumb for starting just VP, since I heard TiP is like the base game + an expansion.
>>320345770
Trouble in Paradise is objectively the better game, its just more of the first game with some improvements and literally no drawbacks but play both if you want.
Both games are criminally underrated and its a damn fucking shame they didn't take off. I have a feeling if they were released today people would have had a different response.

You mean like 90% of the games MS funded within the life of the Original Xbox?
