Nintendo knows platformers.  This one from Rare is no exception.  As far as play value goes you will surely get your bang for the buck as this game is long.

Shaped in the mould of Super Mario 64 is this awesome platformer which excels in just about every department. You take control of Banjo and his side kick Kazooie, as they attempt to rescue Banjos little sister from Gruntilda the evil witch.

Even though many people wouldn't really consider "Banjo-Kazooie" a game that will forever be remembered among the hardcore gaming community, I find that a crying shame. To put it bluntly, "Banjo-Kazooie" is an absolute joy from start to finish. ...    [ Read The Full Review... ]

Banjo-Kazooie is simply an outstanding 3D platformer. Imagine the depth and immersion of Super Mario 64, with the emphasis on exploration and freedom. Now add better graphics, more interesting levels and characters, a camera that controls WAY...    [ Read The Full Review... ]

Banjo & Kazooie was one of my favorite games on the N64.  I preferred it over Mario 64.  Rare does a really good job with making these characters instant stars.  Dialogue is all just words on the screen with some noise but this can be forgiven...    [ Read The Full Review... ]

Banjo Kazooie...  When I first played this game, it was over my cousins house.  I'm sorry to say this, but I spent most of my time with this game rather then with my cousin. 
 
Now why would I do that? Because it is an excellent title. ...    [ Read The Full Review... ]

Very similar to super Mario 64, Spyro The Dragon, and other 3D Platformers, Banjo Kazooie doesn't add anything spectacular to the genre.  The graphics are very good and the sound is excellent with strange voice-like sounds coming from the speakers...    [ Read The Full Review... ]
