Looks stupid in my opinion. I don't know maybe I'm just too old for this stuff.

sonarus6204d ago (Edited 6204d ago )

Well here is my honest unbiased opinion.

I think they are over doing the colors a bit but thats just me. I also don't like the way banjo is rendered, he looks a little plastic imo

After watching that video now, i have to say vehicles are an excellent addition. It actually looks fun with the vehicles. I doubt the platforming elements will be as strong as the original due to the vehicle additions but we'll see.

@below yea much better than the first trailer in my eyes too. Actually made the vehicles look sensible

fenderputty6204d ago

I like some of the younger platformers. I had a lot of fun with R&C. Considering my GF actually played with me, that made it even more fun. I would actually be rather jealous of this game if LBP wasn't right around the corner.

DivDee6204d ago

but i'll admit, that video was much better than the trailer and was actually pretty kool.

I'm sorry after playing through ratchet this just seems like garbage.

there's hardly anything going on in the background. The enemies are low res texture balls with gaping mouths and 2D teeth, the far far background hills are repetetive textures, there isn't much in the environment, even look at the ground it's flat with a few objects strewn around.

they CAN do soooo much better!

Look at 58 seconds in and pause it, look at the ground textures......yerp.

Then stop at 1:02, look at the ground textures.

.........yerp.

They CAN do SOOOOOO much better than this!

DivDee6204d ago

How about looking at the potenital of the gameplay, and not ground textures for god sake

DiabloRising6204d ago

Say that to the people who bash games like Resistance. Heh. But I agree with you.

Blademask6204d ago

Now it seems the people who stayed around are pretty much saying "Ok, so this was the game that was supposed to put ratchet into its place" And it doesn't even look close.

This was on a pretty large scale, the people that this comment is directed to know who they are.

DivDee6204d ago

Lets put the comparisons with other games and graphic whoring to bed and just concentrate on this game itself.

xhi46204d ago

are an integral part of a game.

same with gameplay.

replayibility etc.

graphics is a very large part however and allows a game to become as realistic or stylised as need be.

this however, is an embarrassment.

Why ruin a game by incessantly comparing it to other games? This fanboy nonsense is out of control.

As for me, Im not completely onboard yet, but I will keep my eyes on this and see how it shapes up. If anything Im hoping to see a good multiplayer with some karting.

LevDog6204d ago

OMG looks like a super nintendo game...

shadow_hearts6204d ago

JOLLY16204d ago (Edited 6204d ago )

Italy......? I really, really hope it's like a Super Nintendo game. Those games are so addictive and fun. If if is anything like the games I remember playing on the SNES, I will be super happy!

I want a new Perfect Dark, Banjo and Jet Force Gemini.

Bathyj1716d ago

I actually don't want them. I'm not a big fan of Microsoft rehashing IPs they had nothing to do with creating just because they happen to own them.

Before you call me fanboy tell me a game they did that to that actually lives up the the original?

Just leave our beloved memories alone. You want to bring something back, redo crimson Skies or Brute Force. At least they were your games and they need updates.

gamer78041716d ago

I'm all for The Initiative rebooting perfect dark as a third person though, sounds like its trying something new and not just rehashing with a new coat of paint with this idea. Hope we see a tease of it in the next showcase.

gamer78041716d ago

Rumor is The Initiative is working on rebooting Perfect Dark in third person, normally I wasn't a fan of taking existing IPs but if its something new like this I'm up for it.

jznrpg1716d ago (Edited 1716d ago )

Don’t give them the Battletoads treatment .

TravsVoid1716d ago (Edited 1716d ago )

Donkey Kong Country is probably my favorite game of all time but I've not connected with much else Rareware has made since other than maybe Killer Instinct. Sea of Thieves has got to be close to my worst $60 purchase I've ever made.

sagapo1716d ago

Viva pinata was kinda fun imo.

Don't bother. 10 pages to click through and all of them written very poorly

Relientk772114d ago

Ugh Musashi: Samurai Legend is so meh. Don't understand how you can go from Brave Fencer Musashi to that. I really want a Brave Fencer Musashi HD Remake or a true sequel. It's one of the best games I've ever played.

I actually liked it for what it was. But then again I'm not a Banjo fan. I actually hated a lot of the N64 style games that all followed the same Mario 64 style. Except for Conker.

IRetrouk2131d ago

I really enjoyed this game, the building was fun, I thought it was a well made platformer.

Vits2131d ago (Edited 2131d ago )

I kind of agree. The game had many new ideas that would have worked better in a new IP as people wouldn't be so upset that Nuts & Bolts played so differently from the older titles.

PhoenixUp2131d ago

I seriously hate how angular the redesigns are for so many of the characters in the game

The X06 trailer built people’s hopes only for the final release to ruin those dreams

-Foxtrot2130d ago

Damn right it should have

Can we just get Banjo Threeie and write this game off as Kazooies bad dream or something. An in game joke.
