Yeah, I'd be jealous of DKC if I were making Yoshi's Island... oh, wait.

 

[Ghost]

Mario fans crying just makes decapitating him even more hilarious.



ITS A JOKE MORANS.

 

[hiryu]

Its in poor taste and down right disrespectful. I mean, who the fuck do RARE think they are.. pitting Banjo against Mario.. I mean for fucks sake, if there was no Mario 64, you think Banjo Kazooie would exist at all? Everyone knows mario, how many people know Banjo? You'd never catch Miyamoto showing this level of contempt and disrespect towards his industry peers.
Rare are out of order.

Please tell me this is a joke post.

u mad?

Those are a few months old.

Heel is me. GH put them up as new.

 

[plaguis]

It was a joke, quit crying.

Maybe we have different philosophies, but I believe in any industry you have to show a level of respect for your peers, especially someone as prolific and Miyamoto. I mean, seriously - are Rare even in a position to rib Mario.. Banjo, Conker...

Halo Wars

This shot is so bad ass!

 

[MirageDwarf]

Vp2 is all up in this thread, and gamers days is 3 days long apparently.

What? Kind of unusual for a company to host press 3 days for games from only one publisher. Is this official?

[CrunchinJelly]

I wonder what is happening with Halo Wars and Alan Wake.

I was certain we'd see Halo Wars this year. There was even a gameplay trailer on Marketplace last year!

[strikeselect]

Luckily for MS ... Gears 2, Fable 2, NG II and the GTA IV DLC will be enough to satisfy me this holiday.

I'll just try to forget Banjo was transformed into a puzzle kart racing game and Too Human got a gimped co-op.

Conker and Banjo were every bit as good as Mario 64, if not better in places. Some of you all act like you are married to the guy. Its a joke. J o k e. :lol

Having said that, the game looks like crazy fun. Cant see why fellow neogafers are disappointed.

Heres your beloved miyamoto

Nintendo producer Shigeru Miyamoto once criticized Donkey Kong Country, stating that "Donkey Kong Country proves that players will put up with mediocre gameplay as long as the art is good."

Theres a fine line between a joke and disrespect. I see it as disrespect. And no, neither title touched Mario 64.

What? Like jokes much?

 

[itxaka]

So velvet assassin is Sabotage? the one of the french resistance and B&W city? I really got confused by that.

Wow, disrespecting a video game character! Boo hoo! I'll get the UN right on it, this is a TREATY VIOLATION!

yes they didnt only touched it, they raped it, I enjoyed Banjo and conker way more than mario 64

If anything it shows respect, and besides it's a joke. Rare and Nintendo are old friends, and apparently still speak to each other to this day according to an interview late last year. Get over it.

 

[meddow]

im a big rare fan but to say that is just retarded.

:lol at the Nintendo defense force crying foul on the beheading of a 3D recreation of a Mario sprite.

Sounds like a joke poster. Miyamoto can eat my shorts! :lol

 

[scitek]

I thought the intention of a joke was to be funny. I didn't find what they did funny. I didn't find it offensive, either, just stupid.

 

[Error]

Is this just for 1st party games? Any hope for an IU trailer? :/

It's not a damn racing game. You didnt get that? There will be in multiplayer. But the core game is platforming just with vehicles.

You selfish prick, I'm going to commit ritual suicide soon because Ninja Blade isn't appearing and you want a IU trailer? WTF?

Well I found it pretty funny. Lighten up.

You do realize Mario has been recreated in anything with a character customization tool ever and this is just an extension of that, right? The only difference is th developers did it because they're not pricks afraid of stepping out of their legal bounds, and still know how to have fun.

 

[plaguis]

:lol at the Nintendo defense force crying foul on the beheading of a 3D recreation of a Mario sprite.

Yes.. the Nintendo defence force that actually enjoys playing on his 360 and actually likes the look of this game. My quarm was only with Rares disrespect, not the game itself - which I hope does really really well.

Haha right. By the way, your friend Jasper is waiting for you in the "debut trailer" thread.

You should check out some of the impressions. They kind of refute that assessment.

There was never much hope. Only a fool's hope.

You keep talking about rares disrespect(which was just a joke btw) but you said nothing about miyamoto bashing DKC

make a rare/banjo vehicle and destroy it yourself in the game.

happy now?

There's plenty to see even before you get to the workspaces -- a large pond humming with bird life lies adjacent to their winding driveway, a cadre of bonsai trees donated by Mario creator Shigeru Miyamoto dots the parking lot,

I bet Miyamoto is wishing he had those trees back.

 

[BenjaminBirdie]

I bet Miyamoto is wishing he had those trees back.

It's the Statue of Liberty all over again!

 

[Pizza Luigi]

What a lovely day for gamers.

Everyone smashes Rare's wonderful new Banjo idea into the ground and they are bitching on Rare because they disrespect Nintendo (that means, make a funny 8-bit Mario with the game and blow the head of just too show the physics).

 

[Struct09]

Being a huge Mario fan, I don't see the Mario thing as a sign of disrespect. This is Rare, it's all in fun.
