I agree their current gen stuff isn't A+ and a bit lacking, although I did enjoy Kameo and Viva Pinata. But from what I've seen from BK3, I like a lot. And come on, it's 40 bucks for the game and the XBLA original in HD. Even if the game is decent it'll still be worth it lol.

I believe BK3 is the first game Rare has developed from the ground up on the 360. Kameo/PDZ were originally designed for the gamecube and probably rushed.

The new banjo and kazooie character design is just plain ugly. It's so boxy :/

I was able to pickup my code to get kratos from gamestop, was unable to snag any extra ones ;/

Just like last year I'm probably the only one that cares about this, but the new NHL 09 looks amazing. They have be a pro mode this year, but more importantly is you can do the be a pro mode online where you join a team and play 6v6 online with your character. You can level him up and there is an actual trophy they are going to give away for the team that wins the ladder. Seems like EA always tests out there new innovations on the NHL franchise.

You're definitely not the only one. Cannot wait for this game anymore.


Just hope they get the correct Pittsburgh goal horn this year, lolz.

Kazooie actually looks fine to me, but yea, Banjo and most of the other cast I saw looks fucking terrible, and I am completely on the fence about the emphasis on car/plane/whatever building (something that I have never liked in any game). I'll (possibly) forgive them if the game gets decent reviews, but I find it a shame that even with the $40 tag and preorder bonus that I can't be bothered to buy it yet until I KNOW I won't be dissapointed.

Are you kidding me? I buy the NHL series EVERY year, and 09 looks like it isn't going to disappoint. What system are you getting it for?

I got my code and the guy just handed it to me and didn't really care. I'll do my best to get a few more codes from them during other people's shifts.

I wanna know if NHL 09 has the vintage Buffalo Sabres jersies.

This ought to help explain things. http://www.1up.com/do/previewPage?cId=3169463

It sounds pretty promising, and looks beautiful. It's the same company that made Farenheight/Indigo Prophecy back on PS2/Xbox/PC. It was ap retty innovative game with the way it played and told the story. Until the story took all sorts of crazy directions anyway. And playing as a kid in flashbacks. That was awful. Pretty good game overall though. Check it out if you can. I'm somewhat excited for another PS3 game finally.

I'd assume they do, they have a lot of extra jerseys for each team this year. Colorado, Phoenix, and Carolina even have the old Quebec, Winnipeg, and Hartford jerseys.
