Rare says many of its fans suspected a recent teaser site for the 360 version of Banjo Kazooie was actually just an elaborate April Fools' Day prank (it wasn't). But, to placate the legion, the company offered up some 4-1 plots for their game, all but one of which may be a complete fabrication.
The red herrings include B & K hunting the "witch's giant T.I.T", Banjo and Grunty falling in love (our personal favorite) but we'd be more likely to believe Kazooie being abducted by aliens. Which on the list are you leaning towards?

The first one leaves me colder than a witch's ... never mind.

Rumour One: Highly Unlikely
Rumour Two: Sounds way too much like Mario Galaxy. If they do it, I won't be buying it.
Rumour Three: Rare does use silly abbreviations, so it sounds somewhat likely. Somewhat. However, sounds too much like the plot of the GBA game.
Rumour Four: Spiral Mountain being turned into a mall? Sounds silly.
Rumour Five: It would be awesome.
I'm leaning towards 5. Maybe just because I like it. >_>

If they decide to leave the cutesey shit behind like they did with conker then i could see some of this stuff really happening. but i really do heop that they would input some actual dialogue cause that shit in the first 2 games sounded like a group of retards being forced to read the presidents speeches

They're still using babble speech from the first two games, Rare execs have confirmed it.
Sorry to dissapoint you.

Personally, I think four.
If you look at the original teaser trailer it shows pencils drawing blueprints and a jackhamemr and such.
Plus, the site right now shows a blueprint.
Aren't all of those necessary in building anything? Especially a mall? :)
I have no other reason to believe, but I think it's just hinted based on what we've seen so far.

Four: I see as highly unlikely, this ain't a simulation game, and if it were then it would be a total failure.
Two: Is a convincing Mario Galaxy spoof I strongly assume.
Three: T.I.T. funny but not too convincing, I know Banjo Kazooie for it's subtle dirty humor. Mainly though the story seems dubious from a gameplay point of view, the people want action not talk.
Five: This was the one I speculated be correct at first, but then I remembed Conker.... and I doubt it.
One: Ok, stay with me, I think One is the real plot because it has the most 'fiction useable plot' [if Rare keeps gameplay like last two games]. Also it reveals so much yet is kept so vague, so much speculation and interpretation.
'their fire-breathing foe?' what's that?
[From that line I speculate there is a new bad boss in town and Grunty, desperate, needs and tricks Banjo to take him down so she can take his/her/it's place again.]
Also remember, this is POST transformation Grunty, she is hot, not the ugly warts and bone version so don't be thinking he fell in love with that.
