if I had to choose another system besides Wii, I'd go with the 360. The PS3 isn't worth it (I think Sony needs to re-examine their entire strategy as far as their gaming consoles are concerned).


I agree 100%. I will be getting a Wii and an X-BOX 360. Well, I am really only a 360 just for Banjo Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts. Screw the close minded fanboy reaction to the previews.

Heh. I like the ideas they're running with. I loved the first two games.

Well I am glad you like the new concept. I didn't mean to generalize but I was on IGN and I was amazed by the stubborn attitude towards the new game. Some people jsut wanted the same game in Hi-def. People need to realize that the basic 3-D platformer has become a tired concept. You have throw in something more innovative with it these days.

Well, I don't know if it's a tired genre, I just don't think anyone really besides Nintendo knows how to do a truly great platformer anymore. Largely killed off by "adventure" since 3D became the norm.

I think the genre can go on with more radical innovations like what Rare is doing with Banjo and Kazooie.

Just had a look at the screen shots - the graphics look decent and DC looks pretty cool. Great likeness.

I don't know for sure, but I'd guess they would want to go for something much more action-oriented.
