I liked this review. I think my brother might like this game, so thanks for the recommendation. 
Also, the Burj Dubai is bloody huge.

The vehicle building part looks straight out of Kingdom hearts;
not a big deal , it was the best part of all KH , and they improved on it.
It's really too bad they didn't stay more faithfull to what the previous games were; looks like they got carried away with the vehicle part.

The game is fun as far as the demo went, but did they ever get around to fixing the insanely small text for those of us too poor to buy a big screen HD TV? If not, then I say fuck it and fuck rare for leaving me out.
They announced a patch approx a week back stating it will be fixed. Not sure if patch is live yet, but they did do a 180 on their previous stance.super_smash_jesus said:
This is pretty much what I feel too, I wub Rare, I basically grew up with their games, but I need a bloody magnifying glass to read that text :-/super_smash_jesus said:
Anyway, so the gameplay is faulty, but how long is the game? Is it comparable to previous Rare titles?
Good review. I liked the first two banjo kazooie games back when I was an eight-year-old playing on my brand new N64, and I still like them now. This one doesn't count.
It seems to be a case of "what you put in is what you get out" with the gameplay. I've read a few reviews here and there and played the demo, and it seems that people have had very different experiences with it. A lot of opinion, however, seems to be swayed by the gamer's thoughts on the old N64 games.
It'd be interesting to find out whether the game would be received differently had Rare instead made a new franchise using the same mechanics and charm, rather than Banjo Kazooie.

Good review. It's pretty much what I was expecting - the charm and character enjoyment of the first two but without the gameplay. As much as I enjoyed the other games I think I'll have to pass this one up.
