Wow. The horse was talking about a September release for the TV show meaning that we'll probably get the game before thme. Knowing Rare, they'll want to delay it but because of the TV show, they'll probably have to release it before September.

You know, I had my doubts but this really looks like a good game. I'd rather have another Banjo-Kazooie game but, you know, maybe next time. (For those of you who don't know, Viva Pinata has been in production ever since Microsoft bought out Rare, about the same time that Conker: Live & Reloaded was started, and the sub-faction of Rare working on it is the Banjo Team so this means no Banjo-Kazooie 3 for a loooong time crying.gif Oh well...there's always the future...)

There is going to be a second Rareware release confirmed at E3 this year although we are not quite sure what that is going to be yet. We, the fans of Rareware, are expecting it to be a refurbished version of the Donkey Kong Racing game Rare was planning for the GameCube set in the Sabreman universe entitled Stampede. Personally, I hope it's not, I hope it's a sequel to another great game, but anything from Rare will be great.

Banjo-Kazooie is a series of video games also produced by Rare during its time with Nintendo. It follows the adventures of a bear (Banjo) and a bird (Kazooie) as they try to save their sister from the evil and jealous Gruntilda. It, and its sequel, are masterpieces and were undoubtedly the best games produced for the N64.
