Microsoft and Rare have finally let the bird out of the bag, announcing that Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts is the newest game in the BK franchise, scheduled for a 2008 holiday release on Xbox 360. Though the game will retain some of its traditional platforming elements, the game’s primary focus is on vehicles — the [...]
