You could be forgiven for not recognizing the Banjo-Kazooie name; the last time this charismatic bear-bird duo were unleashed on home consoles was back in the days of the Nintendo 64. But they're back, and hitting the Xbox 360 in a platformer with a twist: most of the gameplay takes place in vehicles you design yourself.
Why It's Hot:
You can design and build your own vehicles. How cool is that? Plus, the game's next-gen physics system means that Banjo and Kazooie will really put your creations to the test.
Why It's Not:
Since being bought by Microsoft, once-proud developer Rare is a shadow of its former self. If they're going to make Banjo-Kazooie work, they're going to need to get some of that old magic back again. Can they pull it off?
