==Speed-Run 2/7/09==
On 2/7/09 I did a complete 100% Banjo-Kazooie Speed-run. Here's a few numbers:


#Gruntilda's Lair - I didn't really record it :/
#Spiral Mountain - 3:10
#Mumbo's Mountain - 10:45
#Treasure Trove Cove - 23:08
#Clanker's Cavern - 27:53
#Bubblegloop Swamp - 32:02
#Gobi's Valley - 30:16
#Mad Monster Mansion - 29:44
#Freezeezy Peak - 31:52
#Rusty Bucket Bay - 45:12
#Click Clock Woods - 61:22


#Total: 4 Hours 49 Minutes 40 Seconds though my math may be off.

I don't have anything to compare times to, so I'm not sure if it's that good or not, but any comments on the run would be deeply appreciated (Even criticism, but make sure it's constructive). Aside from that I only have a few notes to say about my 5 hour experience:
==JollyDodger Bio==
Hey there folks! I be JollyDodger! I edit most major gaming Wiki's, but am more active on Nintendo ones. To make a long story short, because I'm sure y'all don't really care much for my personal life, I've played video games to unwind for almost 18 years now. My first system was a SNES when I was 6 years old. I prefer RPG's, Platformers, and Action/Adventure although I'll play pretty much any genre, the one exception to that is FPS's. I hate them. If you really want to know why? Ask me, because my problems with them shouldn't tarnish my beautiful Bio.


*I missed a few notes in Treasure Trove, Bubblegloop, Mad Monster and Click Clock, that utterly destroyed my time.
==Reviews==
*I hate the Engine Room.
*It took me awhile to remember where EVERYTHING was in Click Clock as it's so large, and I spent a good 10 minutes finding the last Eyrie worm.
*Grunty said she was fat, then 3 minutes later she said she was skinny.
*I hate the Engine Room.
*I talon-trotted most of the time after I got it, but there were times when I forgot to.


Yup that's about it. My final comment is that the game ages really well, the colors, the music, the levels, it all is so well done and yet was able to run on the N64 without any lag. Again, any comments on how I could improve my time would be great. As for another speed-run, I might go for Banjo-Tooie in a few weeks. But that's for another time.
'''Banjo-Kazooie:''' Extremely well-done. I always liked Tooie better, but this turned me into the fan-boy you see here. The level size, graphics, music and sheer amount of things you could do/get in the game we're unheard of at the time. Aside from the that, I have to say, I've played over 200 games since the SNES came out and very few boss fights even come close up to the climactic fight on the top of Grunty's tower (Ganondorf's battle in Zelda: Ocarina of Time is one of the very few.) The final fight's music is amazing. I remember being pretty frustrated with Grunty's shield when I first battled her but I laughed really hard when the Jinjos appeared to help me and said something like "Quickly brothers! Our new friends need our aid!" All in all, one of Rare's best games.


==JollyDodger Bio==
Before I begin, let me say I edit pretty much any Nintendo or classic gaming wiki there is, under different names. I enjoy anything involving video games really. The one exception to that is FPS's, I personally think they're all too similar. Also, I'm very big on the mind-set that music makes or breaks the game.Aside from that, my favorite company will always be Nintendo and the characters that we're born from them (and Rare!)they simply make characters that appeal to all ages. While I do own all 3 of the new-gen systems, I believe that Nintendo's Wii isn't all that it's hyped up to be, and we aren't experiencing the gaming renaissance that we're being told we are, though provided, we do have a few diamonds in the rough. The classics are still the best, and always will be, because you couldn't hide behind graphics to make a good game *coughGearsofWarcough*, and Mario, Link, Banjo and Kazooie and all our favorite characters from the past are perfect examples of that. I own BK, BT, and Nuts&Bolts. And yes, I enjoy Nuts and Bolts very much, it isn't on the same level as the previous titles, but it deserves recognition.
==Gaming Status==


'''Banjo-Kazooie:''' While I haven't played it in a few years, I beat it twice, once at around 80% when I first played it, then at 100% a few years later. One of my favorite games of all-time. And honestly, it has to be the BEST final boss fight I've ever played. EVER. the music, the witch, the fight strategy was all amazingly done.
'''Banjo-Tooie:''' My favorite in the series. simply because I felt it at least doubled the content in Kazooie. The levels were even better in this one, you couldn't get all 10 jiggies in one play-through of a level, making you backtrack and letting only the determined get all 100%. Not a fan of the final boss battle however. A sad shake of the head towards [[Breegull Blaster]], turning BK into an FPS is just... wrong...


'''Banjo-Tooie:''' The best of the bunch IMO, it polished up some of the very few things '''Banjo-Kazooie''' had wrong with it, and expanded the worlds 2-fold. 3 100% runs later and I still have an itch to kick Grunty's bony arse.
'''Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts:''' I have 3 major points to say about N&B and one of them may irk some people. (1) I LOVE it, it isn't on the same level as the first 2, but it's so much fun to play with. (2) I really want to stress this, as many of you have looked past this. BK: N&B is a good thing whether you liked the game or not, it shows Rare REMEMBERS BANJO AND KAZOOIE, it means we still have hope for Banjo-Fourie! (3) Platforming > Vehicle gameplay, but that doesn't mean it's any less fun! It's at least worth a rent if your a true BK fan.


'''Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts:''' Interesting the say the least, I just completed an almost complete run-through of the game (I don't have the stop 'n' swop crates). I for one think that Rare did a commendable job of the game, it was pretty fun, but I felt the characters weren't given enough personality. The vehicle creation mode is a blast, I've already made [[Weldar]], [[The Mighty Jinjonator]], and a few other fun little vehicles, so major props on that. All-in-all, it was very well done, and great to see my favorite old characters but, I won't be replaying it very soon. And Rare, if your reading this, I'm begging you, make a Action/Adventure Platformer like the old days! It'll sell like hotcakes!

To explain the more interesting choices I made in the above lists, I made this section. Jolly Roger may seem like a strange choice, but when I first got Banjo-Tooie, I was young enough to look over the sexual innuendo he made in the tavern, playing it a few years later, I had a "WTF?" moment talking to him every couple seconds, seeing the way he acts in N&B makes me always laugh, and the "slightly" homosexual pirate earns a spot on the list. Trophy Thomas is an arrogant punk, Mingy and Blobby made Grunty stop rhyming (one of the most memorable parts of Banjo-Kazooie, Mr. Fit never stood out to me in Tooie, so it always made me wonder why they put him in N&B. Oh, and Banjoland is my favorite world of all time, it was like riding through my childhood.
