I love the Bubblegloop Swamp music. :wub:

Tiptup :lol: :wub:

I've 100%'d every level so far apart from Freezeezy Peak where there's one jiggy that's eluding me :x and Rusty Bucket which I've only just started.

Anyone else watch the intro all the way through each time they play? :slol:

Yep. Both times :datass:.

It sounds like you're rockin' it with the 100% level clear-up, Lotus!

It's gotta be done with a game of this quality (plus I hate seeing all the level totals at anything other than 10/10, 100/100 etc. :slol: )

That's worse then everything I've never done in Nintendo games. A *lot* worse.

Same. If I can skip an intro or cut scene I will.

I don't trust people like you.

Might play this in the near future, but not right now. Too busy with Far Cry, Destiny and Binding of Isaac, plus my Wii U. One day I won't have a backlog. Shame I won't be alive to do anything about it.

So some initial thoughts.

1. I wish the N64 had better video output. It's a shame how shitty N64 games look on HDTV's :(

2. Despite the above I think Banjo has aged much better than a lot of games from the N64 era. Might be my childhood Nostalgia creeping through but this game looks and plays great.

3. The Music :wub:

4. The camera isn't as shitty as I half remembered/ feared it would be. In many ways it feels like a refined Mario 64 actually (the game in general I mean).

5. I blitzed through Mumbos Mountain and Treasure Trove cove pretty quick. Thought I'd be more terrible. Clankers Cavern is the worst level so far though. Is nowhere near as memorable as the first two.

Got all the notes on Treasure Trove Cove. All the Jingo's too, but had to bail before getting all the jiggies. That Shark is piss annoying.

Keep doing the double jump gliding move. It's much easier to stay away from him like that.
