Who do you think should win and why?

Banjo can apparently effortlessly shove a speeding car out of his way.

He wins.

Banjo Kazooie = cheap rip-off of CB

CB for the auto-win

If by cheap rip-off you meant more entertaining, cooler, funner, and with much more satisfying gameplay, I agree.

Doesn't matter.
Once a rip-off, always a rip-off.

You can put clothes and make-up on a monkey, but it's still a monkey.

Seriously, in what way is Banjo a rip-off?

Different characters, different appearances, different gameplay, different story...Is it just cause Banjo is an anthromorphic animal?

I really can't see how Banjo is such a rip off. His games are awesome and calling him a rip off of CB is just plain insulting.

i was under the impression that banjo came first
and if he wasnt, how could he possibly be a ripoff?
the gameplay was taken directly from mario 64 - the non-linear overworld style that was also used for DK 64 and conkers BFD, and was never used by a crash bandicoot game until crash 3 (possibly 2), both of which i know for a fact came out after banjo..
crash 1 had and overworld, sure, but it was completely linear, and totally different from the gameplay style that was used in mario 64
not only is the gameplay different, but the story and characters are too..
dont get me wrong..crash had great games, and i had a lot of fun playing them back in the day, but saying that banjo is a ripoff is going way over the top, escpecially when banjo's real gameplay inspiration was mario..

Crash Bandicoot came out about 2 years first.

But yeah, there are absolutely no relevant similarities to suggest Banjo being a rip-off.

And he wins the fight too.

Crash also dies in one hit from anything.

Not if he has Aku-Aku nub.

Then it takes 2-3 hits. 131

Crash Bandicoot: Warped is a classic for me.
