All these Banjo announcements are giving me the warm 'n' fuzzies for Banjo Kazooie on the N64. Oh wait, I meant to say that they're awakening repressed memories of collecting warm things, fuzzy objects, whosits, whatsits, musical notes, honey combs, and numerous other tiny, brightly colored items. Obsessive Compulsive Disorder met its match in Rare's game about birds, bees, and witches. Thus, it's with a sigh of relief and a sloppy hand wiping sweat from my brow that I point to a comment by Rare's head of design, Gregg Mayles.

"Furries? So hot right now. Also hot: videos! We've seen Banjo Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts excel in stills, but in video, it's quite moving. In this gameplay clip, Banjo and Kazooie collect coconuts, traverse bright green terrain and pilot various vehicles to the constant din of sproing-y and boing-y sound effects. The eyes? Googly. the characters? Fuzzy. The game? So Rare."

"It's not just simply adding objects to pre-defined chassis to create the desired effect, although the game does have some pre-built ones for you to add on to if you like. Every block can be placed individually including all the superstructure, and then the game's physics goes to work and, voila, a vehicle.

But the screenshots are only going to tell part of the story. This is a complete Lego experience, and you can keep on clicking those blocks together. During the demo, a towering statue of Mario, which one of the testers made, was shown off -- and you can apparently drive it, though we're just treated to seeing his head cheekily blown off to demonstrate how the vehicles are made of individual objects.

This is only the start. A tester tells me about that during an internal competition to see what was possible, he constructed a functioning space shuttle, complete with ejectable boosters. When they were sent spinning into the ether, a pair of wings slid into place, allowing you to fly the titan."
