No motion control for Banjo Kazooie 3 News

Xbox 360 News by Ellie Gibson

10 July, 2008

Rare told Eurogamer there is no truth to rumours there will be motion control functionality in Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts.

"While we are usually loathe to comment on rumour and speculation," the spokesperson said, "This is a red herring. The game does not feature motion control."

"It's good enough as it is, to be honest," he added.

The Internet got all excited after a video appeared on IGN. In it, Microsoft's Ken Lobb mentioned Kazooie's wrench is used for turning devices, adding, "You twist the controller around and it'll move different things in the game."

Turns out he was talking about twisting the left analog stick, not the whole controller. Ah.

Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts is out this Christmas.

Thank goodness for that!!!

I want to play Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts using a conventional contoller, not some gimmicky motion-controller that will only ever be used for three games at most.
