Tie between the classic Simpsons episodes (up until around Season 13) and Futurama for me. Family Guy got old, and the gags on the Simpsons started going downhill, personally. King of the Hill I never found funny, to be honest. Same with American Dad. South Park can be alright on occasions, but I've...

Just letting peeps know that I'll be taking quite a bit off time off the site in the upcoming months. (mid year) Examination results came back, and failing 2 out of 6 isn't such a good thing; rather a wake up call that I need to pull my head in for a while. I might pop my nose in here every now and ...

Oh, I thought you meant some sort of beer game to play with friends, lol. No thanks; no sports, fighters or party spinoffs for me, please. Can't stand the way they've milked Mario for all his money with these rubbishy titles coming out each year. Hey, I admit every now and then a good game comes alo...

My username's Kowbrainz, seeing as nobody takes that name before me, ever (wonder why that is... :P) but the videos on there are quite subpar; basically me attempting to run through a level or something as fast as I can and doing it pretty miserably. Most of them are a tad old, though; I guess that ...

Lol, this is a quite common topic I've seen at a Banjo-Kazooie board I go to as well; people who are able to have these dreams about games every now and then; for some it's just about every month. I admit that sometimes I've had a dream which has been twisted in some way or form to contain elements ...

The only problem with that is that people tend to lose interest over a long period of time. Only four people actually finished the marathon today; 3 of which in under 3 hours 10 minutes, the other guy kept playing for another 5 hours when most people had already left. You could do the subsequent tit...

Lol, I don't suppose anybody got to watch it. Ah well. I ended up placing second, but it was weird: I beat the guy who I was fearing of losing to, but some random guy came up and beat us both by almost 10 minutes. It was really scary, lol. It was a great success, though; I reckon Qyz should contact ...

Hmm, I think you may have put the timer up wrong, Qyz; it's on Saturday for us Aussies.... 10am for me (perth time); 1130 for Adelaide and 12 for eastern states. EDIT: No, my mistake. I mucked up the times in the first post; sorry guys... :cry: I won't post about this anywhere else for fear of Coolb...

Lol, I'm definitely capable; it's just very unlikely. My best time at the moment is 3.23 which is over 15 minutes behind his time of 3:07. He's been slowly improving his individual level times at the same time I have been, so the only way I can really beat him is if he loses on the Mr Vile game seve...

For any of the overly avid Banjo-Kazooie fans out there, this weekend is for you. Even if you were a bit disappointed by the big reveal from Rare last month, you shouldn't be so sad this time. Marathongamer.com is holding a Banjo-Kazooie face off on Saturday, 7th of June at 3 am Grenwich Mean Time (...

I'm glad the characters and humour are returning, at least. I think that's really what gave BK its soul, and is probably why I like having Banjo in this game instead of it being a totally new IP, since I wouldn't really be able to relate to or bond with the new characters.

I WON THE SECRET SCRIBES CONTEST!!! The prize was a gloriously-made wallpaper depicting heads of various characters, including some secret ones. I'm not going to tell you guys who though... If you really want to know, I'm sure it's somewhere else on the internet. But this is one turtle ...

Anyway, I have the same thing Cody and Qyzbud have with girls. I usually talk more to girls than boys, I have 2 best friends, one is a boy, one is a girl. One Guy friend and one Female friend, eh? Well then, you could have your own Disney channel sitcom! XD Lol, I hate that stereotype with shows th...

er, what's awesome? (apart from Jomingo's story... which I starred in)

Oh, uh... at first I thought I was referring to your pic, but now I'm not quite sure...

Awesome stuff, Qyz.

I think they may have already done that; apparently the game went through three cycles of development - the BK you see now is the result of two ideas being scrapped. I believe one of the first two was to combine past levels from BK and BT into some sort of new world in a platforming style, but it di...

I find your lack of faith disturbing Kowbrainz. I have no doubt in my mind that Rare could've made an amazing and memorable platformer. The thing is, they are probably bored of making platformers. That could be why they took this direction, they just didn't feel like making BK3. Lol, don't give me ...

I wouldn't say disappointed yet. I know I can't call this a true sequel to the previous two games (at least, not yet) but it is certainly interesting to see what's going on... can't wait to try it out. Yeah, the only real question you can pose is as to why they decided to go this direction with Banj...

Classic Banjo fans are embracing it for the most part; it's only about 5% or less who aren't liking it too much. Whereas if you go to the gameFAQs boards you'll just find people trolling on about how it's not banjo, how it's ruined their nostalgia, how it's going to fail, how it's stupid that it's a...

She's very Kameo-esque... :P Lol, you have no idea how hard it is to keep a site up-to-date with all the new info as it flies in, another review, trailer or batch of screenshots in every few minutes. Especially with the server lag with all the visitors. Eh, I'm impressed, really. Sure, a platformer ...

Apparently the name is finalised now; Banjo Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts if you hadn't realised already. Gameinformer says: - RARE says they didn't want to make a hi res version of the old Banjo platformer. - You create vehicles with parts you find around the levels. - GI says their first vehicles was ...

Haha, very nice.

Eh, the graphics don't really please me as much as the classic Banjo did either, but I'm pretty excited to play it either way. I just read up on the Kotaku story you were referring to, Jomingo... seems pretty weird, dunno how you could hope for it being true. I don't get why, if this was the case, t...

Lol, he looked worse in the trailer. Kazooie looks better now, too.

Lol... >.> Rare's already stated that the game is not being ported to the PC just like the other Banjo games weren't because Banjo generally doesn't play well on a computer using the controls it currently has. Look, yes, there was a rumour about a wiimote controller, but any statements about Banjo u...

No, Banjo is not using some weird remote, and he is not being ported to PC either. Anyway... ahem.

Maybe I can start to allow the use of signatures for top contributors, just for starters... Ah! That's an idea. Awarding sigs or special ranks etc to people who continue to service the site sounds cool. There needs to be some sort of small award for people as an incentive for helping on the occasio...

Oh yeah, Hilrod ftw...

Alright, bumping this back up again and stickying it for the good of everyone. Asking everyone to get some screens for three levels. 12 screenshots are needed at least, more if we can get them... we'll see if they can go up with Qyz's next level update. So, 4 screenshots for Bouncy Bonanza , Stop 'n...

Bumping this back up again... not because I have new art, but because I'd like to take another approach with this topic. At the moment... I have study. For midyear exams and all that rubbish. So it's very unlikely that I'll be able to post much artwork, definitely not as much as before. I was thinki...

Moving this to the DKC discussion forum. Whilst it is a project in most senses, I think it would be better (and would attract more attention) if it was there.

I think I may have asked this before, but when were you planning on adding the maps up for levels?
From what I recall you said you had finished most if not all of the maps from DKC, so just intrigued as to when you felt the public would be ready to view said stuff.

Eh?

Was the photo simply from a texture hack, or was it an actual texture in the game?

Qyzbud wrote:Sorry, but I just don't buy the whole 'they just thought it sounded good' suggestion for their level-naming philosophy. This is Rare.

No, I think you're being a fanboy.

Qyzbud wrote:So you think I should show all the ranks in a list, rather than having them be a surprise? I don't know about that.

Lol no....

Lol, I tried to do this for a few hours on end when I tried it a few years ago. I gave up after a while, though. Really frustrating stuff.

We had a LOTE fest today (Languages other than english) at school, and I got to see that preparation wasn't quite as I had assumed: Peel a banana, put a skewer through it, then put it in a plastic bag and into the freezer. Try that way instead.

Yesh.

Hugs please?

Now all I need is somebody to remix it, or arrange it at least. Eh, this will keep me happy for the next few years I think; no need to plug in the Game Boy and sit it on my desk on pause anymore.

Yeah, the only reason Gold, Silver and Crystal die more easily is because of the in-game clocks and the batteries for them. Serebii.net had a few ways to fix it up, namely sending it to nintendo or opening it all up to solder a new battery in yourself.

I disagree. Everyone should be treated equally here, so I think everyone can be moderators. ...it's just some of us can ban the other moderators because we're... more equal than the others. :P Jokes aside, in my experience moderating other forums, if you elect a lot of people during the early stages...

For all of my gaming on the computer, I use an old Wingman Rumblepad controller. The control sticks aren't too good if you need to use them, but the control pad is excellent and there are several buttons there for you to map the controls of consoles however you like.

Ah! When I bought my new copy of DKC3 (old copy ceased working) this was a lot like what I found when I beat the game - several glitched up names on the rankings with weird percentages and mine down the bottom even when I'd beaten a few of the times. I used the ERASE code to delete the times and tha...

New thread for new glitches pls; don't worry if they're minor - if they're completely different glitches, they deserve completely different threads.

Jungle Jinx. Played through the level so many times, lol... the music and atmosphere is fantastic. Klobber Karnage was another favourite... then it'd be a tie between Black Ice Battle and Animal Antics.

Also: Why Black Ice Battle? What kind of misguiding name is that? :/

Well I finally got a hands-on Brawl experience... it was great fun, but it felt pretty much just like melee with a generous handful of extras sprinkled on top. :? I love playing as Diddy, though... He's such the awesome. Mm... nothing will beat my first experiences with melee, honestly (apart from ...

Chose Jungle and Mineshaft... reckon the music and visuals in those levels give off a really good vibe; the jungle's sort of spooky when you start hearing these tribal sounds in the background, and it all fits in with the spikes and skulls all over the place; you know it's going to be dangerous.

Hehe, I remember seeing this somewhere a while back. I think the same mag made a few comics for Banjo-Kazooie too.
