Sorry I'll return to my X-Box worship. This game was garbage when Nintendo was involved but has now been saved by the might green X. This is going to be game of the year 2005. Best looking game on the system. I can't wait for it to release. Thank big Bill for the delay, delay as long as possible this mighty game will be worth it.

Holy shit, Rare is back. I wonder what KI3 would look like.
That "fur shading" is insane. Why can't anyone else do that?

Conker is one of my favorite N64 games, and will probably be the reason I end up getting an XBox (along with Fable, possibly).

The problem is that you keep repeating the same lines over and over again while talking only from your perspective.
I'm not really hyped for the game either, but I wouldn't mind playing it (never played it before)...but you are going off on some tangent about the game not being worthy for a remake. Ya know what? I didn't think Resident Evil deserved a remake either...but obviously a lot of people DID. Just because YOU don't feel something deserves a remake doesn't mean that one should not be made...
I just thought your behavior was inappropriate and unfair to the game.
Save your BS. I can say whatever the hell I want about whatever the hell I want. If your not smart enough to realise that it's my opinion get a clue. I forget at GA your not alowed to say anything other then agree with the masses. If your opinion is not exactly the same as everybody else it somehow wrong to say it. I think this is an odd choice for a remake I think it takes more then graphics in a Rare game. If this has enough content IE. great online I'll buy it.
If my comment have hurt poor Conkers feeling he can bite me.

What kind of barriers are preventing Rare from making a Goldeneye re-make, besides the obvious JB license they'd have to get? That would be a sweet remake.
I just realized that the multiplayer for Conker could be just as addicting and polished as Goldeneye...I really hope it turns out that way!

As far as I'm aware, the whole point of making the game was for the Live multiplayer (which is completely new, not just the N64 multiplayer online). The sinlge player is just along for the ride because, well, it'll sell better with it and they might as well.
darscot said:
No, you can't. But you can say this stuff. (As a side point, I love the argument of "Shut up, you can't say that to me 'cos I'm allowed to say whatever I want." It's so deliciously hypocritical.)
You have been on the internet before right? There are a hell of a lot worst places the GAF for that sort of thing.
darscot said:
There is the problem right there...
You seriously overstate things to get a point across. It almost isn't even about this specific game, but rather, the way you are handling yourself. Obviously, opinions are opinions...but the entire point of this board is to DISCUSS opinions. Opinions can be presented in a multitude of ways, however...and that's what you seem to be forgetting. You seem as though you are literally yelling at your monitor about this...
Why on earth are you getting so worked up? You were stating things over and over in a rather nasty manner yet you can't seem to understand why people are "attacking" you. Heck, it almost seems as if you didn't want anyone to comment at all...

That's probably his tail. The Ooga-Booga dude had a penis in the original game, although I remember it was blurred out (censored) but someone else assured me that it wasn't, and he said it was the first time he ever saw genitalia in a video game.

In retrospect I probably should have bought the original... I rented the thing 12 times....

I am totally impressed by this game. I never played the original, so I am looking forward to picking this up. This game looks like a moving painting.

Sooooooooooo fuzzy. Its looking really good and im excited to finally play conker.
Looks good, way more promising than Ghoulies or Kameo. Don't see the problem with last gen remakes either, everyone's doing them....
-Resident Evil (GC) Capcom
-Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes (GC) Konami/KCEJ/Silicon Knights
-Sakura Taisen: Atsuki Chishio Ni (PS2) Sega/OverWorks/Red
-WildARMs: Alter Code F (PS2) SCEI/Media Vision
-Pokemon Fire Red/Leaf Green (GBA) Nintendo/Game Freak/Creatures
-Doshin the Giant (GC) Nintendo
-Conker: Live & Uncut (XBox) MGS/Rare
...what's the difference?

To those wondering why Conker was chosen to be remade, here's my theory. Conker: BFD did not do well on the N64 in the eyes of Nintendo and majority of the sales numbers accumulated were after the game hit bargain bins. It bombed and the reason why was because the content didn't fit the N64 market/demographic.
Rare/MS obviously feel the game has what it takes to be a success (and I agree) and has received an extreme makeover in the hopes that a franchise develops from this title.
EDIT: btw, I only skimmed this thread and noticed more than one person pose this question but didn't notice a response (again I only skimmed).

Sure it did, N64 had tons of "mature" high sellers (GoldenEye/TWINE, Turok 1-3, Perfect Dark, Doom 64, Mortal Kombat 4, Resident Evil 2, etc). The real problem was it coming out so late in N64's lifecycle... Conker's failure directly resulted in Sin & Punishment/Custom Robo V2 being cut from western release and Eternal Darkness/Dinosaur Planet being reworked into GameCube releases. It signaled the real end of the N64 market.Mr_Furious said:
The N64 version holds up pretty darn well in those comparison screens considering. But it was one of the best looking N64 games to come out.
I still have an mp3 of the "Great Mighty Poo" song somewhere on my computer, I remember almost nearly passing out from laughing so hard the first time I got there.

Can they get away with putting an Sp in there? I have a feeling Nintendo may make them pull it, despite the free advertising.
Conker was the best platformer that Rare made for the N64. Actually it was one of the few games Rare made for the N64 that I liked mainly because it was the only fast moving game that didn't involve collecting. Conker Reloaded isn't the best looking Xbox game I've seen but it looks very nice. I wish the multiplayer looked as good as the single player though.

Not to mention that RARE are still making GB titles. Just because RARE was picked up by MS, that doesn't mean that the whole relationship between them and Nintendo completely ended.
As for Conker, I definately liking what I see. Ghoulies was disappointing and Kameo has never impressed me. Conker looks like a solid title, however. It should do well.
