  • Abstract:  My experience with Banjo Kazooie and its sequel, Banjo Tooie, was never an extended affair, which is a fact I both regret and plan to eventually resolve. I was a proud Nintendo 64 owner, but never played either game for long, only messing around with ...

  • Abstract:  At first glance this Banjo-Kazooie title has a distinctly childish look to it. The game is bright and colorful with beautiful looking characters throughout. Look past this though and you will see that the game’s depth in design is stunningly impressive...

  • Abstract:  Rare is a developer that I desperately want to see flourish again. I know they have it in them to make great games, but these days, they always seem to get something wrong. When they announced that they were changing the new Banjo-Kazooie's formula to...

  Published: 2008-11-24, review by: gamezone.com

  • Abstract:  Joyous and hellish. Delightful and disgraceful. Too frequently annoying yet capable of compelling the player to see it through, Nuts & Bolts is more of a disappointment than it is a reward for an eight-year wait. But its a disappointment that, for all...

  • Vehicular creation tool is robust and easy to use, Missions can be tackled in a variety of creative ways, Visuals are distinct and inviting, Soundtrack provides a great backdrop, Lots of replay value and a cool multiplayer mode.
  • Control for land vehicles is touchy, Framerate drops are infrequent but still punishing.
  • An excellent vehicle creator and a variety of fun missions make Banjos return to gaming a blast. ...

  Published: 2008-11-14, review by: strategyinformer.com

  • Abstract:  Players begin their quest to collect 131 Jiggies within Nuts & Bolts with the use of vehicles – a strange departure for the series that focuses on platforming. If you’re a love addict of the original two Banjo titles due to their platforming aspects, y...

  • Abstract:  Though the bear (Banjo) and bird (Kazooie) developed a reputation of starring in collect-a-thons Nuts & Bolts meanders away from this to a large extent. On the N64, the platformer instalments of Banjo-Kazooie practically forced players to ...

  • Presentation, level and detail of customization are all well-constructed and tightly bolted.
  • Choppy framerate; convoluted tutorial; awkward vehicle handling will drive gamers nuts.
  • Its been nearly a decade since the odd couple of Banjo and Kazooie graced a major platform. Rares platformers were a highlight of the Nintendo 64 era and were instrumental in catapulting the British development studio into household name status. Sinc...
