Donkey Kong vs. Banjo-Kazooie

well DK does have 2 more things...A Coconut gun and a leap kick...as for Cinematic's they can be quite misleading...like Halo...chief in cinematic easily kills guys in a gameplay would normally rip you apart at close range there numbers...just one of many examples

That's my point. If Chief falls from orbit and get right back up a couple of hours later with no damage, no one should be able to beat him to death. Gameplay inconsistency applied for the sake of balance.

but what about Cinematic inconsistancy?

Cinema portrays the character as they really are. Gameplay is obligated to balance the experience, inconsistency or not. Otherwise, video games would be no fun because they would provide no challenge to these otherwise unstoppable peaople. Compare and contrast FF7 (the game) to Advent Children (the movie), or the DMC games to the anime. See the difference?

i didn't like Advent Children...and that RPG characters usually got some funny controdiction during plot vs the battle parts but i digress this is a fruitless arguement

Agreed. We're kinda just restating the same point. Yet again, you basically agreed with me on contradictory showings.

well i think Cinematics make the Battle unbalanced...as game Characters i like to pretend they are fighting like in the game...in Cinematic's your Character could be whipping a normally dangerous foe or minutes later the opposite...like in San Andreas...you can Max your Muscle all you want but officer Tenpenny's gut punch will knock you down...or you beat the boss ingame but cinema defeats you

That's what I've been saying. Characters like Dante and Link would otherwise obliterate the world around them without effort. That's just how it is. The possibility of death is programed for the player's sake, so if a made, it's the player's fault, not the character's. Sometimes CIS and PIS are kind of a convoluting issue though.

Plus Banjo beat Conga in the first world who is a gorilla ten times the size of Donkey Kong.

I'm not taking sides here because I haven't yet fully refreshed my memory on Banjo, but Conga doesn't have jack shit on DK. DK's striking power is at least within the pentajoule class as opposed to the featless Conga.

well Congo may of been Bigger but...he's had nobody to compete with like DK has...Congo is a boss character with predictable moves and because he's early on weak...DK however is a player that also has upgradable health bar...who has on record the most health? don't know...but DK does got a Super move and Banjo well...doesn't and as there behaviors DK is more aggresive and trains to stay King of the Jungle...Banjo is laid back and Adventures only in emergency

What are Banjo's greatest feats again?

Banjo defeated a witch who oblierated a mole. Banjo wins in the WEIRD department. But still we need to factor Kazooie. Who when coupled with banjo makes a Bear with a bird gun that shoots egg shaped grenades. I say in terms of weaponry Banjo wins, in terms of strength DK.

scientifically Gorillas rape Bears. Ever seen gorillas fight at the zoo? I have. Banjo dies

Bytch get the **** out of here.

Gorilla fights are tame as phuck. All bluff, and some extremely slow pushing and shoving with some teeth glaring that's more threat display than anything practical in defense.

Whereas Bears will take out chunks of each other and knock down mid-sized trees.

Gorillas are the weakest animals of all time. I have personally slayed thousands of them.

Errr.... How?

CosmicComet likes to pick on gorillas to feel superior, because they are one of the few creatures with a penis smaller than his.

So in other words this becomes a battle of Speed and Distance but lets keep in mind all these battles are on the games fields...Coconut gun vs Kazooie's eggs? if DK hides behind something or takes a lookout point how can he use that?

I guess that's somewhat ecologically enlightening and all, but that pertains to real life and is completely unrelated to the matter at hand. Bears > Gorillas =/= Banjo > DK, which are the specific two under examination.

BINGO! And I see Dk wrecking Bango hand to hand. And I see the Banjo Kazzooie combo destroying DK by range. Plus Banjo's backpack has supernatural powers or something... it can withstand molten lava...
