Microsoft will be holding a Gamers’ Day event this week where a number of games will be unveiled, but thanks to a PR screw up, the internet is on fire this morning with, among other things, the first screenshots of Banjo-Kazooie 3.
You can click on the thumbnails below to get a look at them, or head to NeoGAF, whose members you can thank for tracking down all of these wonderful things.
It’s important to note, though, that even while the screenshots might make Banjo 3 appear to be a racing game, Rare has clarified that the game is most certainly not a racing game.
We haven’t revealed the gameplay mechanic yet,” George Kelion, Rare community manager, told Eurogamer. “It’s not a racing game, and people are honestly better off waiting until tomorrow when we are going to be talking about it extensively before drawing their own conclusions.
“The honest truth is that people don’t know the half of it yet. The game is not just a graphical showcase.”
It certainly could be; the game looks absolutely gorgeous. I’m excited to hear exactly what Rare’s got in store, but these are good enough for now.
LittleBigPlanets better
You’ve played it, have you?
@ Chris
I agree, it is a bit dumb to say one is better when neither have been released
This looks like a worse looking version of Ratchet & Clank

That looks like an Xbox game, not 360, Ratchet and Clank pwns this game in the graphics department.
Parts of it do look a bit like Ratchet, but Sk8man I think that’s an unfair assessment from having seen less than a dozen screenshots a half year away from release. Let’s just wait till we can get a video of the game, which will hopefully be tomorrow.
The screenshots look great. What I would really like to see would be either a remake or a completely new game for both Battletoads and Double Dragon from Rare on a next-gen console. That would be outstanding….
And Norbit your link is broken…..FYI.
Go Marlins!!!!
@ Chris, true that, true that, I’ll hold my breath.
But we did have screenshots and video of Ratchet long before 6 months before the release.
The point I was making with the “xbox” comment I made was in relation to the square character models.(seriously? wtf?)
