Banjo Kazooie (XBLA)

[~Lil' Meezy~]

Not sure if anyone here is a big N64 guy, but I know me and my brother grew up between the SNES and the N64, so when Rare announced that they would be releasing one of my favorite platformers of all time, Banjo Kazooie, on Xbox Live Arcade this winter, I couldn't have been more excited.

This means upgraded graphics / textures, widescreen support (hopefully), and perhaps most important, Achievements. Hell, maybe we'll even get some new Stop n Swap info (if you don't know what I'm talking about, don't ask, you'll save yourself a headache).

So what do you guys think? Are you excited? What kind of achievements do you think they'll put in? Will Banjo Tooie get the same treatment if BK sells well?

Not only is the original coming to XBox Live, but if you preorder the new game (value priced at $39.99), you get a code to get it free when it comes out.

The two Banjo games were up there with Goldeneye, Mario Kart, and WCW/NWO offerings as the best reasons to own an N64.

I was a Sega Genesis kid so I grew up hatin the N64 and SNES but I do remember always goin to my boys house when i was younger and makin stop play his gay games just so we can play WCW/NWO. Great wrestling game along with RAW is WAR for Sega and RAW2 for Xbox.

Dream - saw that the other day on Joystiq, couldn't be more pumped.

This winter belongs to BK, GoW2, and Left 4 Dead. Along with Rock Band 2. Very excited.
