Just played this with my son, and I was very disappointed at the alacrity of the text on the screen – so much so that my boy couldn’t even know what was going on. And I logged into Amazon tonight particularly with the intention of telling you all about my experience.
–> To the game developers: Your core consultation is young kids. I’m an adult and could not even read the text showing the tale, instructions or character comments no matter how quick I tried to read them (without a sound or aloud). What a joke.
–> To you the customer: This game is driven by text. Over & over & over again. That’s all you get (no speaking) in every instance for anything relating to the game itself.
This game had so much potential. Brilliant graphics. Fun small contruction cars (my kid loved them and compared them to building his Legos). And most of all, the sound effects and by and large ‘cool factor’ for young kids would’ve been splendid! The driving mechanics were bearable – especially for a kid – and the gifted jokes that occur when you guide around town and talk to people showed that they place much effort into a potentially splendid experience.
Everything seemed to be simple to follow with ‘hint’ graphics all over the place for young kids to follow, and there was a thin tale line ruined by the alacrity of the text scroller as I will unfortunately have to complain about more not more than.

Here, do this right now (I swear this will have you convinced and LOL)…
I want you to read this sentence as FAST as you possibly can without a sound right now, ok? Here we go:
“I’m saying this sentence to myself because a reviewer on Amazon.com is trying to make a point that this GAME is ruined by the alacrity of the graphics…”
OK, did it? Now I want you to presume that the graphic cuts off screen at the capital word “GAME” above in the sentence you just read. (I swear, it’s pathetic, isn’t it) Now presume, that as you’re trying to read that, THE NEXT GRAPHIC COMES UP! And you can’t get to the end of that one either! There’s no pause button, no not anything. I wanted to spend some time reading these things to my kid (in that slooow parent voice we all use) but no. You could’nt even follow where or what the heck they were trying to tell us; about the tale, the characters, the instructions, and the description of the actual imaginary world we were supposed to be in!
____________________________
All it would’ve taken to make this game a 4/5 stars, was a “Continue” button at the end of each text line, so that we, the players (the parents! and kids!), could’ve understood what was going on. I can’t presume for a minute that this game went owing to any ‘beta’ or truly public testing with normal people. No way.
Moreover, it would’ve been a splendid game to help kids to learn to read while meeting with a parent having them read to them. What a bring shame on. Meeting with a parent (me) and trying to delight in what could be splendid family time finished up with me in fact laughing at the game and the developers for a ridiculously quick text (no one talks, it’s one of those sports meeting with mumbling instead of right overdubs/voice overs, and THAT ruins it even more, especially in regards to the potential educational experience that “could of” been with a cheaply hired actor to speak the words to the children).
Man, what a HUGE disappointment. For someone who plays the XBox 360 in competitive gaming environments and understands the gaming industry extremely well, I could not believe that they screwed this up ‘that’ terrible to the point where even an adult could not read the screen in time.
OVERALL: A truly awesome graphically stimulating experience and a potentially GREAT family hour experience with your kids ruined by ill-thinking, no right ‘beta’ testers (this has to be a fact), and a lack of understanding that their core consultation will NOT be able to read that quick, nor will they know many ‘huge’ words used in the writing. When are you guys going to figure out what kids are capable of reading? Heck, most adults don’t have this sports meeting vocabluary, and the grammer is the worst and most harmful thing you did to this game.
Instead of “Bear see mountain of lost cash. Bear sad game got terrible review on Amazon” – you could’ve just done it right! “The bear sees the mountain of lost cash, and the bear is sad because the game was given a terrible review on Amazon.” Jeez guys, c’mon. Alacrity reading AND terrible writing? Kids WON’T be able to figure this game out without bothering their parents every 2 seconds asking what to do! And when we try to help, there’s no contoller graphic in the menu for us to tell them what to do! (like soooo many adult titles have, go figure). We can read. They can’t. We can’t read that quick. They can’t either.
Don’t dissipate your cash on this, nor even bother to rent it, or buy it used. Just tell your kid when he/she sees it, or questions you about it, exactly what I’ve told my kid many, many times throughout his childhood; “It only got 1 star on Amazon.com. The kids despised it. Let’s get a game with 4 or 5 stars, OK? Trust me.”

I am a huge Banjo Kazooie fan. I could not believe that a new one was finally coming out. When the first one came out it got me interested in playing video sports meeting again. I was so filled with anticipation to play this game. Wow what a let down. This game sucks so terrible! It is NOT a platform game. It has none of the classic fun game play or tale. You have to build cars and guide them. If I wanted a driving game I would have bought one. As driving sports meeting go it is still horrible. There are so many things incorrect with this game. Even the font and size of the text that they used was unreadable and then they went so quick it was impossible to read. I am very mad and frustrated as a fan they really messed this up. Don’t buy it or if you must wait until it ends up in the $5 bin.

First off, I like the first Banjo and Kazooie game. I have played it over and over again. I am playing it agian on my HDTV since, I was able to download it from XBOX Live Arcade. As far as Nuts and Bolts goes, were they nuts making this game. What were they thinking when they came up with this design. Sorry, I have to rate this game with one star. I was hoping for a new adventure not a racing game. If I wanted a racing game, I would stick to Need for Alacrity. If you are looking for the same fun you had in the first two don’t look here. It is a dissipate of cash…..

Hardcore banjo fans if your like me and wanted a right banjo platformer, your incorrect this game the contrary of a banjo game. The whole vehicle thing is frustating, theres is NO PLATFORMING, NO CLASSIC MOVES (egg shoot,..so on) NO TRUE BANJO HUMOR, NO FUN…NOTHING. I have played every banjo 1, tooie even gruntys revenge and banjo pilot. This is a right disgrace to the hardcore banjo kazooie fans..
P.S I’m not a fanboy i own all 3 consoles of this generation
