OXCGN presents an in depth review on RARE's latest game, Banjo Kazooie: Nuts-N-Bolts. Slip on over to the site, check out the huge amount of screen shots and in-depth review.

Please don't forget to pass some comments and let others know your experience of the game, whether you agree with the reviewers finding, or not, it's open to you.

In the credits of the new Banjo-Kazooie, with designer names rolling, side kick Kazooie makes a self depreciating wisecrack directed at Rare that for elements of online forums is regarded as gospel….

“All the real talent left years ago”.

It’s a sad and misinformed myth that carries far more weight and supposed “truth” than it ought to.
Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts is a singular, mighty salvo that refutes that.

For those who haven’t been paying attention or simply feel insecure about playing an (otherwise excellent) piñata gardening game, Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts is a wakeup call…. Rare is very much alive and kicking!

    sorry i gotta disagree with the score, at best it deserves a 7.5 - just because Showdown town is awesome, but the rest is not that good...

      Really? I haven't played it yet but it does look fantastic. Is it because the formula has changed so much that you don't like it?

    yeah, I hoped that 10 years of hype would give us a true port, not an attempt at something else..

    Rare should have just turned this into a new IP, and made a Banjo Kazooie true sequel.

    Havent played the game I am on the fence with this one but it but judging by the videos and screens along with many reviews even with such a high review I just find it hard to want to play it.

    The game is brilliantly done. The physics are realistic, and the character models are amazing. Online to me is a bit laggy,but that may be me. Flying and driving gives total sense of freedom, and the Stop n' Swop feature is AWESOME.


    To all who say it deserves less then a 9 or 8,

    The graphics are outstanding in the game, not a huge fan of vehicles because of the timed missions, but it is a good game overall.
