Banjo-Tooie

"One of the Best N64 Games Ever!"

Banjo Tooie finally hits our shelves after beeing delayed by Mario Tennis..... After a few intense days trying to complete the walkthrough I realized that this game is special....Needless to say I finished the game and walkthrough in five days, although don't think that the game is easy. It is much more challenging than Banjo-Kazooie and packs alot more fun.


Graphics: Very good.....A slight improvement to the graphics that were the first to kick Mario out of the way.

Sound: Sound is also a relativly good improvement. Although Banjo must have reached the age that his voice starts to crack.

Music: The music in Banjo-Kazooie was great and the music in Banjo-Tooie is even better no games music comes anyware close.....(Except mabye for the short music sequences in Myst and Riven....For the PC and MAC.)

Replay Value: A huge number of cool stuff that helped the Replay Value score 10/10.

Play Control: The second best I have ever seen. Must admit though that Goldeneye's Play Control overides it a bit.

Plot: Basically Grunty the old Hag gets out of her rock with the help of her sisters and her servent Kongo and plots to kill Mumbo Jumbo, Banjo and Kazzoie and also Bottles (which she does exceed in the opening movie.)
