It was a fucking retarded idea to begin with, glad it was removed. Can you imagine how many retards would have yanked out the cartridge at the wrong time (or too vigorously, or rushed to jam it back in within the time limit and accidentally broke the contacts, etc)?

Somewhere in India, iirc. The developer commentary mentions that the Harvesters were originally supposed to operate from there.

A game needs funding to be released. In 2008, the vast majority of game sales still came from retail outlets (unlike today where more and more sales are coming from digital downloads). If no big publisher was ready to fund distribution, they had no choice. Besides, it was a rough year for them seeing as how they almost went bankrupt, and were bought out by Crytek. So, the game was largely forgotten.

>>323932801
I was just about to post this. Truly a tragedy. Surely there has to be a copy of this somewhere they could throw out?

What I think would be a pretty neat idea is if companies put out lists of games they made way-back-when and have no intention of making a HD remake. Passionate fans of the series could use the assets they have remaining or whatever and make a HD copy of the game, which then gets sold. The fans get a slice of the profits for their work and they get to replay the game in decent quality and the companies get to receive profit on a game they've done no work for but still hold the license for rather than let series sit around and gather dust.

What I'd give for a HD remake of Dino Crises on PS1.

Nah, Pandemic did the work on the first two Battlefronts, but i agree the version they had done would have been much better than the stinking pile of shit that EA released.

On another note, does anyone have the before/after picture of the Battlefield 3 Alpha/Beta(released game)?

Along with the game having a blue haze on your screen constantly and having most of the color sucked out they made the gun play almost akin to call of duty, in the Alpha of Battlefield 3 you actually had some distance inbetween teams because the guns were a little more powerful and you had to use cover to your advantage, making it pretty much impossible to run and gun like most people do today. Oh, and if you tried to use a player developed tool to remove the color filters that were put in during the beta, they would ban your account.

In the first Banjo Kazooie game you could collect these 6 ? eggs and an ice key. If you completed the game 100% the ending would be a tad different and show where you could find them. Basically, the first game made a huge deal out of these items. The method on how to get them was to be revealed in the sequel. The items are actually totally useless in the first game, but the mystery surrounding them and them being findable in places you couldn't normally get to made them such a big deal.

However during the development cycle of the second game Nintendo decided to change the hardware of the N64 a bit.
Normally, old N64's store data temporarily within the console for 10 seconds after shutting down. The idea was you'd get these items, turn off the console, then swap the Banjo Kazooie cardridge for the Banjo Tooie one and turn on the console again, transferring the item data between games. Hence, Stop 'n Swop.
Nintendo however decided to lower the time N64 would store data temporarily from 10 to 1 second in newer N64 models, making the transfer nigh-impossible to complete. The devs were forced to drop the feature and made a half-assed attempt to still make it happen.

As such, 2 of the eggs and the ice key where obtainable in the sequel by simply bashing in-game BK cardridges, with no mention anywhere in the game how to get the items in the first game. Hackers however found in-game cheatcodes to unlock the locations where you'd be able to get these items within the first game's data, allowing everyone to get these items in the first game.

It is obvious these items would unlock extras in Banjo Tooie, but what exactly still remains unclear. In the Xbox360 versions of both games the feature was restored, but it unlocked an Xbox 360 theme and Avatars, so what it was orinally meant to unlock remains a mystery today and the devs are still very tight-lipped about all of it.
