Thank you. I think exploring spiral mountain and maybe a little bit of the lair is cool and all but entire levels remade? What's the point? If anything, it'll ruin the nostalgic value you have with your old games.

I think this post is gonna be legendary now... I agree, where else better for the Stop & Swop gig to take place, with connecting BK on the XBLA to BK:N&B?

Not to mention the lair has been completely remodelled. Why would they remodel an entire lair (or overworld) and have it just sit there and exist? And there have been a lot of Stop & Swop references shown in videos and screenshots, so I'm slightly becoming more hopeful that Stop & Swop is going to be performed or at least seen.

its worthless to remake everysingle old level. Keep in mind Rare has made a level 16 times bigger than anything else. Also the entrence seems to be blocked by boulders. I don't know if you'll be able to blast them away or not but I can guarantee that you cant go past the first room (like tooie)

I'm pretty sure none of us actually stated that we expected or even wanted all the old levels to be remade, we just want to explore the Lair again 8 years on [in game time] and stuff

Im just saying. Trust me I'd love to explore all the updated nostalgic stuff. I've ben a banjo fan since the day it came out in 1998.

I highly doubt we'll be able to enter the Lair again, and if we can, it will most likely only be the first part of it and nothing more.

[teh_banjofan]

just what I said

More than anything, I'd just love to hear a new recording of the Gruntilda's Lair theme.

im not sure you can beat the classics

who cares now, they're putting B-K and B-T on XBLA, with updated visuals, and knowing rare, they'll probably redo everything. Stop N Swap will work as well, so i'm satisfied wether we get to explore it or not!

I doubt they'll redo everything, if anything at all. They said slightly updated visuals, so expect some more polygons here and there and have it look good in HD, I doubt we'll be getting Banjo Live and Reloaded or anything.
