I'm looking forward to it, but I'm a little cautious. Not buying it straight away regardless.
Banana Mania was a great step in the right direction, but it wasn't as good as the originals? In terms of gameplay and visuals it was worse, but it was an enjoyable experience.
I'll wait for reviews and gameplay. The multiplayer doesn't interest me so I'll see what else there is
I'm really hoping this is a good one. I love the first 2 games, I bought (but have yet to play) Banana Mania, but Banana Blitz was only ok outside of the music (and had genuinely unplayable minigames), 3D was overly mediocre, the last good one was stuck on the Vita so no one played it. So I really want this one to be good.
To me, it honestly looks really promising, from what I've seen of the courses they look like they can get quite challenging which is really good to see, as well as them looking unique and themed compared to generic feeling obstacle courses that could feature in previous games. Plus, I personally loved banana mania and thought it was brilliant fan service, so I've got a feeling they're starting to get what makes the games click.
(Also personally I've never been a fan of monkey target and think its massively overrated, some people are massively downgrading banana mania for monkey target and its really really not fair)
My main 'concern' (I'm not losing sleep or anything) is hoping they have tightened the engine up since Mania. The ball rolling physics felt disconnected to the momentum (if you get me.)
I never drive faster than I can see. Besides, it's all in the reflexes.
Yeah that's fair. As someone who originally played the deluxe version on ps2 as a kid (oh gosh), mania's controls weren't much of a problem for me, but I can definitely see how they feel different and probably slightly worse to the gamecube titles
I haven’t played banana mania yet (curse you backlog!!!) and honestly banana rumble does look fun.
Although I’m not a big fan of the redesign’s though honestly that’s a minor nitpick for me.

You can contact me just to say hi.
I'm disappointed the reviews say the multiplayer is bad; I was looking forward to that. I may wait on the game for a while, but if anyone here gets it this week, it would be interesting to hear thoughts.
