First Banjo Kazooie story details
Er, but we're not quite sure what they are
UK developer Rare has revealed the first story details of its upcoming Xbox 360 only adventure, Banjo Kazooie. The only problem is, the cheeky monkeys have buried it amongst a load of hoax plotline untruths and we've no idea which one be the real deal.
There are five Banjo 3 'rumours' in total and you can check them out at Rare's'Disinformation Central'or simply cast your eyes down the page. We're going out on a slippery, stumpy shaped limb and saying that Rumour Five is bona fide. We think gamers are ready for an RTS platformer. What do you think?
Rumour One: Banjo and Grunty team up against a new threat, falling in love in the process.
Sexy post-transformation Grunty makes a return and proves irresistible to our heroic bear, much to Kazooie's disgust. Can the mismatched trio defeat their fire-breathing foe?
Rumour Two: Kazooie is abducted by aliens and Banjo heads out to search the cosmos.
Partway through his low-gravity exploits, he discovers who's taken her... and it's a familiar face from the Rare archives who has been 'turned to the green side' by Grunty.
Rumour Three: Banjo and Kazooie travel back through time in pursuit of the witch's giant T.I.T.
Grunty drives her Time Interfering Truck back to before the bear and bird met. The duo must reintroduce themselves and relearn everything they know in a completely new way!
Rumour Four: Banjo comes out of retirement to stop his home being redeveloped into tower blocks and malls.
To end the struggle, a capricious higher power engineers a bear/witch showdown through worlds of the imagination – with Spiral Mountain's ownership deeds going to the victor.
