    I know... I was really hoping for Killer Instinct Live! (a downloadable reimagining of the original, redone 100% in 3D @ 1080p, and with online match making heaven) :)

    I expected SOMETHING from Rare...  I don't see why they'd hold off until tomorrow either.

    They're working on several somethings for Natal, also Bungie, Lionhead, and Epic are looking into it and messing with it.


    And Microsoft has been shipping dev kits for it out, so we might actually see a lot of support for it.

    Well, they're bringing the N64 Perfect Dark to Xbox Live this winter, so that's pretty cool. Also, working on stuff for Natal, so I'm down with that. Still though, I hope they announce something else sometime soon.

    Weren't they being restructured after the poor sales of BK:N&B? Perhaps that's stopped them from getting anything far enough along in development to show off at E3.

    Apparently they had started work on a new Banjo game before but they've canceled that now... :/
    Looks like another ten years before a new sequel.

    They just released Banjo Kazooie Nuts and Bolts, and Avatars in 2008. I'm not expecting any news from them until next year.

    I want a Natal-capable Viva Pinata, with sexual references as a warning on the label.

    Yeah either just a port of the old arcade game, or an actual full fledged game. Guess we have to keep dreaming about that.
