Got some Banjo in my Sega Racing.

I played Banjo once. Couldn't get into it. So, I don't really know how to feel about this.

Makes absolutely ZERO sense other than the blatant marketing ploy Microsoft/Rare are DESPERATELY trying to make to get their character out there.

Connection? What connection? the only time Banjo did anything significant he was solely Nintendo when SEGA still made consoles. Can't be a rivalry since Banjo and Sonic have no relation or common ground in the slightest.

So yea, cheap marketing ploy by Microsoft to leech off of a more popular character...

Well, there's only one way to express my reaction.

Another great joke being shoved into the ground. *Sigh*

well I suppose he has experience with cars

...seriously though, that came out of nowhere.

The only way this will make any kind of sense is if the other two platforms do the same thing. Nintendo obviously won't use Mario, as this is direct competition to their brand. And what does Sony have? Sly Cooper?

It's rather sad if you ask me. Although, say both companies did add in characters...who would Nintendo feesibly add in? Diddy?

Sony could add Ratchet/Clank. Although Kratos driving a go kart against Sonic would be intercourse ing hilarious.

Why couldn't Mario ride alongside Sonic? Makes more sense than the two competing for the Olympics (when Sonic should blatantly win every event outside of swimming between the two of them)

Mario Kart is the kart series. I honestly can't imagine even acknowledging another with Mario.

Wii has Miis

Well, since Xbox gets avatars, Wii (No pun intended) should honestly get someone else as well.

...Not that I care since I won't be buying this.

Macawmoses · January 06, 2010, 05:37:42 PM

Yeah. I think someone like Diddy would be badass.

Diddy Kong Racing fan; hell yeah, but it needs conker to truly be DKR.
...which won't happen

As for someone to add, If It wasn't mario, I'm pretty sure It'd be one of there other top characters. For some reason, I see kirby in my eyes.

Diddy Kong Racing

This made the thing seem somewhat reasonable since Banjo was in a racing game, but it's still weird.

It'd be a great homage to Diddy and Banjo formerly being from the same company. What with Diddy basically being Rare's.

One of the Kongs sounds to be in place alongside Banjo. As for Sony... yeah, Ratchet/Clank sounds most likely. If Sony still owned the souls of Square Enix, we could probably see a Final Fantasy character (Moogle), but nope, not anymore.
