:lol LOG says some funny shit.
"They're all in the pipeline, you know. New Killer Instinct, Battletoads and Jet Force Gemini games. Even Ghoulies 2! Oh, you'll never believe that. I've ruined my own humorous jape!"
Everyone has always wondered who got Blast Corps - Rare or Nintendo - and this is interesting that they mention all the fan-demanded series' except that one here.. perhaps Nintendo owns it.
Also.. yeah. This game is amazing. Soo addicted.

Anyone who thinks this game 'isn't banjo' really needs their heads testing. The gameplay mechanic is different, but it's still so very banjo in every way. Even the gameplay is very very reminsicent of the old games, even if the way you perform 'moves' and tasks is fundamentally different.
Great game. Demo really, really doesn't get the point across, either.

I like knocking over the trees in Nutty acres. In fact I want to build a giant bulldozer that simply tries to knock over as much crap as possible.
I did the first Grunty challenge in like two seconds. :lol
Just drove straight into her with the Cage vehicle.

LOL I just watched the credits from the "game information" tab. SO DAMN FUNNY!
So, I went to get my preorder today from GameStop. No Banjo Kazooie XBLA code.
One of the staffers asked another staffer where they were, and the idiot actually breathed "uhhh... well david took one of them... and I gave one away today..."
To which I responded "wait, you gave them both away? what?"
Breathed back "yeah.... let me check the computer to see if we have any more... -minute goes by-... uhh oh! we have 2 according to the computer!"
Then the other staffer glared at him and said "Yes... the two you gave away".
Breather: "Oooohhhhhhh!"
Ugh fuck.

Are patches on the 360 something you need a hard drive for, or can they be used from a memory card? I might be getting a 360 for this game and a few others, and I don't really plan on doing Live or XBLA or anything outside of saving games, so the Arcade seems to suit both my needs and budget. But it would suck if I needed to go the extra $100 just so I could read the text in this game.

You can apply for a memory upgrade.

Someone mentioned in the other thread that patches are limited to 2MB. I dunno if that's true or not, but all the patches I've seen have been really quick downloads, so I think you'd be fine with a memory card.KevinCow said:

Does anyone have any tips for defending Clanker's eyes? Im really having trouble with that one.

if you're standing between his eyes looking forward, the enemies come from the left. What I did was take my vehicle to the bottom of clanker and kept the vehicle still (facing towards the wall, but far from it). As they began rolling towards him, I just kept kept blasting them with the little gunner attached to the vehicle. It's the fastest and easiest way to do it (I've only played the demo so far)

Ugh I HATED that one from the demo (my copy hasn't shipped from Amazon yet
).I think it will be easier to do if you can build an agile helicopter with guns, or get some sticky tires to avoid the shitstorm of the curved surface so you don't slide all over.
I had some CRAZY ideas for that challenge :lol
At first, I didn't realize what the challenge was and thought things were going to be flying straight at his eyes, so I built a wall that moves side to side. It didn't turn out well once I realized they came from all over :lol
I just ended up building a tank and trying my best to whoop their asses. I got the jiggy, but definitely not the trophy.

Theres enough platforming and collecting in shodown town to keep you busy for hours, I love finding new parts and seeing what I get. Ive already made some crazyass vehicles and I hardly unlocked a lot of parts. I seriously didnt care for the demo but loving the retail version. For $40 its a no brainer, and I think its the best looking 360 game, I cant believe some of the really low review scores its getting

Crystal Dynamics
LOGBOX 720
I also love the tips in this game; "As you can tell, tips are always helpful. Sadly, this one isn't. Sorry about that." :lol
And I did a jiggy quest in
Nutty Acres
"Bear go cry about lack of platforming in game now"
This game is too awesome.

Oh god I played all night long. I got 5th place on the "Ice to See You" challenge leaderboard! My replay is up there and everything! This game is really, really fun. Addictive as sin. The game just keeps rewarding you with more and more cool stuff. New parts are just flying at you constantly.
i'm sure it's already been said here, but, man, some of the racing missions are so far from fun. not only are the mechanics frustrating, but LOG likes to force you to use shitty fucking vehicles too. the
race feels like your racing around on a magnetized grocery cart. not fun.

Add to the fact we have to pay nearly double for the game in the first place.:lol

As said in the demo thread, the instructions for this challenge suck.
You win by killing a set number of gruntbots before the eyes are destroyed, you don't actually have to "defend" the eyes.
Imo when you read what you have to do it really looks like you have to keep Clanker's eyes alive for a certain period of time, but that's not the case.
This might be your problem

Haven't played the game yet, but when I realised by playing the demo that the LOG could force vehicles upon you I immediatly imagined that there would be some missions where you have to control an absolutely uncontrolable vehicle, the challenge being in, you know, controlling it.
But if all the other racers are racing around like there's no problem at all I understand where the frustration comes into play.

Note: the spoiler posted below contains what many of you might consider an irresistible cheat. You will regret doing it if you want to progress through the game as intended.
It's somewhat disappointing that the
is still in the game. I couldn't resist exploring the areas of Showdown Town I don't belong in. I probably have much nicer parts than someone who hasn't even entered world 1 should have.

Multiply it by two and you've got me. Rent gutted my wallet this/last month so it'll probably be a week or two before I can get this so I'm dying to hear more play impressions.

very enjoyable game overall, and a refreshing "relax" from all the massacre shooters in the market.
ps
I'd love to see some more difficult/complex challenges though.
maybe they are already present and will find them later,
or maybe rare should do it as free dlc/update ;p
