This thread has been linked to the game 'SabreWulf'.
So far, I'm not really impressed.
It's an alright game, and it can be fun at times, but it just hasn't got that Rare magic that made Banjo so great, along with many others.
I've only played it for 30 minutes, but already I feel the end creeping up on me, and with each level only lasting around 30 seconds, I can't see it being longer than 10 hours.
It feels like a good game just waiting to be unleashed, so hopefully it will amount of more than it has done already. I've high hopes for this title for a long, long time...
Here's to hoping.

Yes, when Rickoss was telling me about this game I thought it was a whole new game by Rare.
But, a few days later I realised it is just another re-make for the GBA (which is why the GBA sucks Nintendo).
So Rickoss, you do know this isn't an entirely new game by Rare don't you?

I have all 3 Banjo games, so that would be pointless. The thing is, SabreWulf could have been great, the premise itself is very good, yet the execution is less than impressive. It's getting better now, but still not great.
Well, it is a 20-year-old Spectrum game, y'know.
Were you really expecting it to be "revolutionary" or anything?
How could it be be quite like a Banjo game when this from Rare during their Ultimate days...?
If you want Banjo, go buy Banjo-Kazooie! :)
