Banjo-Kazooie Nuts & Bolts: new tools not so good
I remember Banjo-Kazooie being and entertaining platformer that had the interesting game mechanic of you both Banjo the Bear and Kazooie the Bird. Unfortunately Banjo-Kazooie Nuts & Bolts breaks away from that past game mechanic. Banjo-Kazooie first major flaw is the very very long narrative introduction to the game. For the first 30 mins. of the game you have piratically no control of your character and are forced to listen to a very sub par story line. Banjo-Kazooie simply has to much game time when your reading text or listening to pointless dialogue opposed to actually playing the game. Banjo-Kazooie also changes the main game play removing pretty much all of Kazooie's moves and adds a vehicle game mechanic. There is potential for the vehicle game mechanic as building your own forms of transportation can be fun and the ability to share vehicle blue prints online adds to a community. However all and all the Banjo-Kazooie environment and humor is drowned out by a slow pace game that is simply not that entertaining.
