Banjo-Kazooie Using Only Regular 360 Controller, No Motion Controller

We have received official confirmation that Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts will not be the flagship title of the rumored Xbox 360 motion controller. Quite the contrary, in fact, Banjo-Kazooie will only be using the traditional Xbox 360 gaming pad. Speculation grew that Microsoft was working with Rare to create a title that would take advantage of a new motion controller and that the title would be latest entry in the Banjo-Kazooie franchise. Despite all the recent rumors, the facts remain that Banjo-Kazooie will not be using any form of motion control.

We’ll have our full hands-on impressions later tonight. Stay tuned.
