Banjo-Kazooie

released on Jun 29, 1998

In this 3D platformer, the heroic but naive bear Banjo enlists his cowardly bird buddy Kazooie to help rescue his younger sister from a vain, beauty-stealing witch. The player is tasked with exploring the witch's lair and the nine large, open levels within it, looking for tasks and challenges to complete. Along the way they meet a variety of characters who teach them new moves and transform them into different animals. Modeled after Super Mario 64, Banjo-Kazooie is distinguished by its cheeky and sarcastic sense of humor and by a large, varied, and novel moveset.

Pas un très grand fan, honnêtement. Par contre l'OST est une merveille, même encore à ce jour

The fact that there was a time when you could make a game about a bear that carries a bird in a backpack and make it one of the greatest games of all time keeps me going

I can see why people love it so much, it’s oozing charm and creativity and is super memorable. That being said I would not have been able to remotely enjoy that without save states. There’s so many frustrating parts and the camara is somehow worse the Mario 64.

Mad monster mansion was peak.

The 30 something Nintendo Youtubers were sadly onto something with this one

Games like this one hit different when you play them in their respective consoles, they are timeless clasic that will never die. Spent all friday and saturday playing it on my Nintendo 64, and had the time of my life. Truly a masterpiece.
