Cogs and gears...?

Looks like they opted for something in between the cute and ugly styles.
And just to make it known that you can't please everyone, I actually like Banjo's ugly look better.

I doubt it. It's not really an unveiling for anything, so I wouldn't say it's an official title yet. It would be strange if they just put the title up there with no information. I think they just wanted to put in the franchise name.

Oh god.


It won't happen will it?
The fact that it's professional means nothing. I could do that. The fact that it has a different look to Banjo means nothing. I could do that. The fact that it says Xbox 360 and Rare and all that stuff means nothing. Anyone could do that... but the fact that the domain name is Banjo-Kazooie.com means A LOT. I'm pretty sure only Rare would have that domain name taken, not to mention there'd be no reason to trick us. If anything, there's reason to hype this sucker before E3 starts. If they're releasing this at Christmas time, this is the perfect time to launch the website.

..or maybe it's just to convey that the site's under construction, making this speculation null and void.

My take on this is that it could be either way. It could just mean the site's under construction. Then again, it could not. I could definitely see Banjo having blueprints to put his "devices" together in which he'd have to search around the worlds for them. Then, perhaps, you'd have a side-to-side comparison of the blueprints and your parts trying to put them in the order you see on the blueprints.

I'm... having Deja Vu... Impossible.

Who wants to bet this gets updated on April 1st and is ACTUALLY authentic? That'd be a new twist on the April Fools gag. That'd actually be nice.

Holy crapsticks!

And thus starts more idle speculation

Also, the only thing that I think looks really wrong on new design Banjo - the teeth. The rest is fine, the teeth just look...weird.
EDIT: Ok, maybe the eyes are too far apart as well

I don't think it is, plus only the RWP has April fools start so early. The rest of the world usually wait until April the 1st

Hopefully it isn't a AFJ, guess we'll have to wait.

You're Appreciated! INFECTED - B1K1 
Even if this launched months ago I bet you would all still think it's an April Fools Joke. I don't see how launching a teaser site for an upcoming game on the official domain would be a joke anyway.

Also, Rare has commented on the site.

Quote:
Speaking to VideoGamer.com today a Rare representative told us that "gamers can expect updates to the teaser site in the near or immediate future"
Quote:
Rare has contacted CVG to inform us that, while the teaser site is currently thin on content, it will be updated soon. Rare community manager, George Kelion, told CVG: "Like the game, the teaser site is still under construction and you can expect updates relatively soon."

Banjo Teaser Site Thread No. 2

While poking around in the other thread, I realized that A)the RWP will keep people who can't install Microsoft Silverlight well informed, but B)that they will have to search the forums manually until they find their information.

When the teaser website is updated, if you are one of the lucky ones who has installed the program,please post any information you can, from screenshots to videos to typed descriptions, anything will help.

I myself have not been able to install Silverlight, so the forum will be completely dependent on the RWP community. Thanks!
