Rare decided to take quite the unique little spin on April’s Fools today. Instead of filling our head with utter total nonsense, they filled out head with 1 truth and 4 other lies. Today’s reveal was about the storyline about upcoming Banjo and Kazooie Three. There are 5 possibilities suggestions, 4 are wrong and only one is the true answer.

Rumour One: Banjo and Grunty team up against a new threat, falling in love in the process.
Sexy post-transformation Grunty makes a return and proves irresistible to our heroic bear, much to Kazooie’s disgust. Can the mismatched trio defeat their fire-breathing foe?

Rumour Two: Kazooie is abducted by aliens and Banjo heads out to search the cosmos.
Partway through his low-gravity exploits, he discovers who’s taken her… and it’s a familiar face from the Rare archives who has been ‘turned to the green side’ by Grunty.

Rumour Three: Banjo and Kazooie travel back through time in pursuit of the witch’s giant T.I.T.
Grunty drives her Time Interfering Truck back to before the bear and bird met. The duo must reintroduce themselves and relearn everything they know in a completely new way!

Rumour Four: Banjo comes out of retirement to stop his home being redeveloped into tower blocks and malls.
To end the struggle, a capricious higher power engineers a bear/witch showdown through worlds of the imagination – with Spiral Mountain’s ownership deeds going to the victor.

Rumour Five: War comes to Spiral Mountain, and Banjo becomes a reluctant leader.
Ever seen a Jinjo Tank? Or Grunty’s Grappling Grenadier Grunts? You will when you take on our innovative RTS-platformer hybrid campaign.

So what are my thoughts on it? 3 is most certainly out. Rare is not going to be pushing up their ratings on this title, especially since its one of Microsoft’s big family friendly pushes. 1 seems over the top, and 5 seems to be making fun of people’s fears of them dramatically ruining the game. Two seems a jab at Mario Galaxy, although it certainly would be a good idea?

I’d probably go with number 4, although with Rare anything really is possible. What do you think?
