Yooka-Laylee (Banjo-Kazooie Successor)

Anyone else seen this pop up on Kickstarter?

Yooka-Laylee is an all-new 3D platformer from the creative talent behind the Banjo-Kazooie and Donkey Kong Country games. We’ve come together to form Playtonic Games and create a spiritual successor to our most cherished work from the past!

It's already smashed it's goal and still has 45 days left.

Banjo-Kazooie

****ing Sold.

Which one did you go for Dave?

Edit - I hate it when they have so many choices, makes my head spin and puts me of.

Pledged a tenner for steam version.

 

[Sega Mega Dave]

Not sure which i'm going for yet.

Spotted it on PC Gamer and thought there would be quite a bit of interest. The money is raking in at the moment and being as its mainly made up of the original team then I have high hopes.

This is why Kickstarter is a good thing, this would never get made otherwise!

Aha, hopefully Microsoft are finally understanding RARE's worth

Is this not self published or are MS studios behind this?

 

[Sega Mega Dave]

Self published, it's a handful of ex Rare members who have started their own studio.

I think they said they had a combined 100 years of experience between them with Rare.

Forogot about this. Can't even remember if I backed it or not as I received no email but judging by my previous response it seems I did, maybe I forgot to back
