Rare have a good deal on offer if you pre-order their new Banjo Kazooie game, Nuts & Bolts.

Pre-order at either Amazon, Play.com, Game or Gamestation and you'll get a code to download the full version of Banjo Kazooie on XBLA.

This is a polished up version of the N64 hit, with smoothed out graphics, it was one of the fan favourites on the N64 and is bound to be popular on XBLA.

Worth noting that GAME stores will pre-order you the game with no obligation to buy, so you don't even have to go and cancel it, just don't pick it up.

Same here, though if they're free I'll preorder anyway.

Unless they do what they did with Fable 2 pub games, pay x-amount for the code and then claim it back off the full game when you buy it?

I'm back working at GAME for the time being, so will find out more!

"UK gamers who pre-order Nut & Bolts from Amazon, Play.com, GAME or Gamestation will receive a token to download Banjo-Kazooie XBLA for free and several weeks prior to its public release (November 26)." From Videogamer.

That is a very good deal - two games for the price of one. I would do it if i had a bigger hard drive on my xbox!
When does the new game come out?? i may have my 20gb hard drive by then and the original was a great game, one ofthe best on the 64!

Wow, I loved the original game. This might be just the news I needed to pursuade me to pre-order...
