Banjo-Kazooie 3 gets release date as my wallet gets emptier photo

I really can't afford all of this win. Fable 2 and Dead Space both hit the UK this Friday, I have Saint's Row 2 in my bag, and there are even more killer games on the horizon that I need off the store shelf and onto mine. Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts is just one of these games, and we now know when it's coming too. 

The magic date is November 11 in the US and November 14 in Europe, meaning you'll be able to build your own bouncing helicopter car in time for the holidays. Rare has also confirmed that a demo is finished and in certification, so hopefully we can get some practice in beforehand.

Who's looking to pick this one up? I need to know who to pester online.

I know what you mean, there are way too many games to get in such a short period of time. But I think I'm going to pass on this one, unless I hear great things about it. Low priority for me compared to what is and will be released this year.

I read somewhere that the retail price would be 45 quid/60 euro? Wasn't it supposed to be $40 in the States? :(

I'm one of those idiots who still resents the fact Rare are fucking Microsoft instead of Nintendo now, and kinda think Banjo 3 on the 360 just feels wrong. But hey, it looks good and I shall get it :)

I pre-ordered mine already on amazon. Sadly, I chose the free shipping option, so I'll be getting mine some time around christmas. Feel free to pester me though.

I could swear I commented...

I preordered it on Amazon and got the slow shipping like ChunkyB. It'll be with me the following week I'm sure. That being said it's becoming the game low on the totem pole. So much gaming joy around and not enough time to enjoy them.

I'm considering getting it, but I really can't afford/ need to play the demo first to actually be willing to spring the money for it.

Pre-ordered online for the free Banjo Kazooie, which I may play casually before I actually get stuck into Banjo 3. Partly because I hear there's some extras for doing so, but also because I don't need more games to rush headfirst into anytime soon. It seems like a great game to play around christmas time, and god knows I have a crapload to get through before then.

@ XanderSan

Ditto to basically every word you just said. Let the pestering commence!

I'm not sure if I want this game to be good.
Dead Space, LBP, Resistance 2, Far Cry 2, Fable 2, Gears 2, Fallout 3, Mirror's Edge, Persona 4, Naruto PS3, Valkyria Chronicles, and Animal Crossing: CF. Fucking A! TOO MANY GOOD GAMES!

I want this game!! I've been waiting for this since I beat Banjo-Tooie all that time ago.
Thankfully I work in a video game store, so I can get it right away on Nov. 11!
