Marketplace just pinged us, you can grab yourself a demo of the longest naming title of 2010! 

The guys over at Rare headed up the Xbox Live Marketplace lettings us know that you’ll be able to take to the wheel with Banjo in the demo.

Yes, not only are Banjo and Kazooie set to appear in the final Xbox 360 version of the game, as of today you’ll be able to get an early feel for the spin of their wheels by downloading the free demo. It’s the first incidence of playable Banjo and Kazooie since Nuts & Bolts (or Banjo-Tooie on XBLA if you want to be picky) so it’s definitely worth franchise fans seizing this opportunity with both hairy paws.

We got our mucky pours on a preview build of the game a couple of months ago and I must say it is rather enjoyable! It’s a free demo of course, so what are you waiting for?

If you haven’t got enough plastic game attachments lying around your house, here is another one for you!

Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing on Wii is to come bundled with some rocking blue F1 style controller attachment, a lot like the one which came with F1 2009 except this once is Sonic Blue. Instant Buy.

Kevin @ SEGAUK just dropped it moments ago – Here.

The upcoming racing title, Sonic & Sega All Stars Racing, has just made an announcement that may be rather shocking to fans of the Sega franchise, as now Banjo-Kazooie has entered the mix!.

Banjo and Kazooie are featured with one of the cars from Banjo & Kazooie Nuts and Bolts with a feature race track  in place for the bear bird combo.

Wait… there is more. You see the useless avatars we have on the Xbox that don’t really do a lot, well now they have some purpose since they are now playable as a character in the game. You will be able to drive around in a custom ‘Avacar’ with your lovely virtual face all over it with your lovely friends as powerups.
