His Banjo-Kazooie LPs are still on LP Archive, but he had been working on going through Nuts & Bolts when he stopped.That vehicle is glorious and I want 1000.
I find myself really bummed out about it, because it was a really good LP. A lot of people give that game flak but, as it was noted somewhere on TVTropes I think, it's one of those games that is more fun the more you put into it. Making crazy designs and thinking outside the box to beat all the monotonous missions. Where most of the LPs I see of it now just harp on how "This isn't Banjo-Kazooie" without end, Roo got mountains of suggestions for vehicle designs and presented all sorts of goofy ways to overcome the challenges (and even did some hilarious multiplayer with other SA folk).
I think what I missed most was the Jump mission in the Jiggoseum. He literally went through every vehicle he had gotten and had them try the jump, including boats that he just tossed over the edge. It was great, and it only got better when he busted out SA forum-user Lorak's kinetikos.h and completely abused the physics engine in the most hilarious ways. While the original video is gone, one person managed to recreate the kinetikos and has a video on YT.
Please watch. It's amazing.
