In what kind of way does these post amaze you. I see nothing different from the rest of the site.

I just want to see what this is going to unfold to. If it's a joke, I'll laugh my ass off.

That was probably why George was browsing this thread. Just to laugh his ass off.

afj, I'm not believeing this for a second lol...

I don't quite believe but i still have this doubt in the back of my mind such as everyone else probably does too.

If this is a rare site I doubt it's a joke because, really, why waste time and money on a stupid joke? I beleive this until proven false.

Ha, this is gonna be fun to see.

whatever the outcome is.

I'm not to sure on this, but i think it has been done before. Thats why.

The key animation is incredibly smooth though, but when the teeth point to the right it pauses for a sec.

I installed silverlight on schools computer, go me, and look at this
If it were offical, Jiggy would be capital. It isn't. afj. hahaha

That is understandable, it is a wmv afterall. It loops, just like on banjo site

The missing of a capital letter isn't that big a deal...maybe if they misspelled it or something

So banjo-kazooie.com isn't official either? o-O

loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool.

So fake. I'm hoping that something like this happens: "April fools! However, check out banjo-kazooie.com to see the first screenshots and video gameplay of the new game!"

I reckon Luke Morgan (Spiral Mountain co-founder)'s icekey was done better than Rare's.... :p

I cant wait to see what will happen

Thats a pro ice key...

Oh, cool... found out how to extract the icekey animation from the silverlight page.

I would put most of my money into this being an AF joke
(I say "most" because last year I put all my money behind CoolBoyMan's NOT being a joke and I got screwed :D)

Ill take you up on that... How much is most?

Not much, I'd assume; whatever he has left after going broke last year. :p

...all you people posting the metaname tags...you know that they're basically just to help get the page higher up on search pages and stuff, right?

I'm sorry what?

This piece of HTML:
Is just used to get the site higher up on search engines. So, people searching for stuff about Bottles Revenge or something would come across this easier. Big sites always use them, it's a sort of hidden advertising, in a way.
As far as I know anyway, I'm not brilliant at HTML.

Ah right

This is a fair statement, however I don't know why people would be trying to search for "Ice Kazooie" in the first place; there's no such thing as Ice Kazooie in any of the games, so unless it's something connected with Stop 'n' Swop's solution and something that hasn't been revealed just yet, then it shouldn't be there.

Of course, on the other hand, Rare could have put the tag in there to pull a bluff on sites like RWP, Spiral Mountain, BT Hive etc etc just to get people worked up about the game and Stop 'n' Swop, which would also lead to more activity on the site and, as you said, let it get higher on search engines etc.

I think we'll have to wait until April first, to be honest. Not too long, now.

Yeah you are right. But i wish all that stuff does make its way into the site somehow.

Yeah, its the same on pretty much every licensed game site. They are like TAgs fora thread.

Still, its pretty interesting. And, upon zooming in on the Ice Key, it seems to be of very high quality, and made with proper 360 graphics. Don't doubt the 'Key!

It's just been done with a 3D image program... I don't really see anything about it that makes it look like it was done for the 360.

I will lol if someone discovers SnS today and the site is useless...

Look closely at the texturing of the SM one, and then the (official) one. By comparison, the (official) one is extremely well textured, and the animation is very smooth.

They will, tomarrow

You cant be sure that we will find out tommrow.

No we can't be sure if we will find out tomorrow, but we can hope to find out.

how long until april 1st?
