Banjo-Tooie Coming to XBLA in April
For all of you out there who are feeling nostalgic, get ready for some more sweet bear-on-bird action coming this April. The sequel to the Nintendo 64 game Banjo-Kazooie is on its way this spring, along with some extra goodies not in the original game. Read on to find out.
We’ve known since the announcement of Banjo-Kazooie that the sequel would be coming, but now we’ve been given a more solid release date. On top of that, this new port of the game will be coming with a “silky-smooth frame rates and super-sharp HD graphics.” And that’s not all.
As with the XBLA release of Banjo-Kazooie, you can expect all the fully-featured fun from the original game. But there’s more – 4J Studios have dredged the Banjo team’s collective memory and implemented the original plan for Stop ‘n’ Swop, for the first time on any platform ever and after many long years of waiting. Without going into too much detail, the Stop ’n’ Swop items collected in Banjo-Kazooie will ‘magically’ appear in Tooie, resulting in… well, you’ll just have to find out. What could be cooler than that? Nothing, that’s what – not even Kazooie turning into a dragon.
Along with this new feature, there will be some more fun additions as well, although the developers haven’t said what yet. Are you looking forward to taking on Gruntilda and her wicked sisters again in HD?

Aww sweet, can’t wait.

Resident Evil 5 demo live on PSN today
Smitty being playing it for a week now on a real console…….anyway Rare should releace KI GOLD
So you got it early on PS3 then? Anyways where’s all the great Xbox news? Seems a little lacking these days.
There’s an Uncharted 2: Among Thieves preview on Game Spy. Just thought you all should know.
The site ain’t posting news much anymore really, nothing to do with there being no news.
But then again why let facts stop you slaver pish? Never stopped you before.
“slaver pish”? That must be fag for something, sorry I don’t speak fag. Lately I’m sure all of you, my fans, especially you Glovner, have noticed I haven’t really bothered responding to your pathetic attempts at cutting me down. I decided that my 2009 new years resolution was to stop wasting my time with you piss ant bed wetter’s. I realized long ago your no competition for me and your sad little comebacks are feeble at best, especially you Glovner. And yes Glovner that thing you did with your dad last night does make you a fag.
Oh great news everyone, only 21 days left until Killzone 2 is out. Got the demo early because I preordered, and let me tell you it is totally sick. I can see why this game is a PS3 exclusive, there’s no way Xbox could handle it graphically. No doubt the best game of 2009. Be sure to get your PS3’s before the stores are wiped out. Yes you to, big gay Glovner.
Slaver Pish = salivating at the mouth and it contains large quantities of urine. IE you’re talking utter piss, bawbag!
Glad to hear though that your single brain cell has finally lit up and smelt the rather large coffee in front of it that you have been wasting your time spouting PS3 propoganda on an XBox web site forum. Welcome to reality.
Happy black hole hunting! Goodbye and good riddance.
Wanna know my new year’s resolution? Finish writing my novel, that’s a fine resolution to make.
The fact that you made a resolution concerning what people say about you on the internet really says some sad things about you. Particularly that we’re not the only site who verbally assrapes you.
Fail troll is failing.
“Lately I’m sure all of you, my fans, especially you Glovner, have noticed I haven’t really bothered responding to your pathetic attempts at cutting me down.

Yet here you are replying? Looks like your new years resolution made it as far as February before you had to cave in and reply with the equivlent humour of a “your mama” jibe.
Pathetic, enjoy life in your fantasy land where your comments are hilarious and everyone wants to be like you while we all live on in reality.
Bizarre. If you look up the word “Imperious” in the dictionary, it’s got a picture of Smitty beside it.
And if you look up ManoDestra, it has a picture of you being bent over by your uncle. Personally, Id much rather be “imperious”, but hey that’s just me.
Great come back. I’m quaking in my boots.
Not.
That was half a step away from a “your mom” joke. If that’s all you’ve got to pass for wit, it’s time you started reading some books and getting yourself some vocabulary…
Well, my patience finally ran out, I just registered at xbox.joystiq.com I’m deleting my bookmark for this site. Bye!
Good riddance. If you’re not willing to help and just going to complain, then gtfo.
the glovner is a big fat british wanking cocksucker
Big fat british wanker cocksucker? Aren’t you scottish? you said once before that you are.
I’m Scottish.
Given his ignorant comments I would assume he is from the south.
OkOkOk… I give… I apologize to everybody for my previous behavior. See, I haven’t gotten any young boys lately in my bed and therefore I’m a little cranky. Please forgive ok?
Also, I realize that I’m very protective about the holy PS3 but it is my compensation tool so naturally I feel protective.
Once again, I’m sorry. I have no friends so I have very little social experience and that makes me very awkward in social situations.
I am going to go cut myself now as that makes me hard sometimes.
Tah Tah!
