New Look


I'm not really liking BK3's new look. Banjo and Kazooie look kinda blocky and more cartoony as does the glimpse of Spiral Mountain we see. Look at the Jiggies and Notes and Gruntilda's Lair, I dunno, it just kinda strikes me as too cartoony and different. Maybe I just need to adapt...

You were probably looking at old pics and didn't notice or something because the graphics are tons better

I just wish it would come out on PS3

No I agree with him. Im not saying that the graphics are not so much better. And i don't think that that looks very blocky. I want it to look just like the original. That may not be the best animation but I hate the new Banjo and Kazooie. The original is much more comfortable and enjoyable. I liked the old animation of Banjo Kazooie and Tooie

Lets Compare

Banjo 3 : http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://homepage.mac.com/adambetts/forums/banjokazooie.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.gamespot.com/pages/unions/articles.php%3Funion_id%3DTMBDK&h=331&w=471&sz=41&hl=en&start=40&um=1&tbnid=XaB6NrhzxY1baM:&tbnh=91&tbnw=129&prev=/images%3Fq%3DBanjo%2BKazooie%26start%3D20%26ndsp%3D20%26svnum%3D10%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26client%3Dsafari%26rls%3Den%26sa%3DN

Oh i actually do agree on that, you guys are talking about the character drawings
I actually meant during game play
I look for better graphics during game play then the actual little video clips they play

Like for example

I'm pretty sure the game play graphics will look better for Banjo Kazooie 3
but we really cannot compare because the only thing we saw from Banjo Kazooie 3 was a video clip and not a clip of the game play

reply

I agree with all of you everything looks a little Dr. Seussish. But then again this was a video clip as Jose said so maybe things don't look like this. Nothing in the teaser was extracted directly from the game. So there's still hope!

I actually don't mind the new look, I guess it just looks more vibrant and atmospheric.

Speaking of which, I wonder what the new worlds will be like.
