Since Banjo XBLA's release three weeks ago, several bugs have been reported -and now fixed- by this port's developer 4J Studios. Users without the BKXBLA bonus code may have noticed a game update popping up after pressing start on the last Xbox Live Arcade title.
[...] A glitch that affected to some weird leaderboards entries has been fixed now, but Rare's George Kelion states that "two of the leaderboards will need to be reset to make everything fair and square again. Resetting the Bubblegloop Swamp [level] and Game Totals leaderboards is an essential but unavoidable bit of backroom maintenance."
[...] Following the release of Banjo-Kazooie XBLA we must also make reference to the new BK classic theme available on the Marketplace for 250 MS Points.
Rare has had an astonishing journey since being founded in 1985. But of the 125 titles released to date, which are the 7 best Rare games?

Dave writes, "Banjo-Kazooie is a perfect franchise to bring back. Re-jigging it for modern consoles or creating a sequel will breathe life into a beloved series that has brought joy to millions of gamers for the last 25 years."
A new Conker would be nice too, and a new Diddy Kong Racing would make a nice change as well over the standard racers like Mario Kart.
I’ve been waiting my whole life for another banjo kazooie sequel! Imagine a new entry with all of the ingenuity and new ideas they would have after modern platformers like Mario Odyssey
We had one with Yooka Laylee and it was trash and hardly anyone bought it. Let the nostalgia die, as much as I like platformers, we don't need another Banjo Kazooie, the game was mid at best.
Just give up, leave Banjo-Kazooie in the past. They will never be able to recreate what made it and Banjo-Tooie good on N64 today, especially not by being owned by Microsoft.
Man this is the 1st Arcade full version of a game I've purchased. I remember playing this game such a long time ago. It's good to be able to play it again. Though it doesn't hold a candle to todays platformers, its nice for the nostalgia.
