I haven't been so impressed with graphics since Ninja Gaiden. :) Seriously these graphics blow anything else I've seen out the water. Textures are Soooo crip! Even close up! Everything is so detailed, character models have a generous polygon allotment and the particle effects are top notch. Fire effects and lighting are the shit. This is the RARE I knew and loved during the N64 days. :) Loved the Demo. I can't believe I passed this Gem up on the N64(but I was to pumped for the Dreamcast at the time). Can't wait to get this baby on Xbox Live.

Conker sales +1

I can get some direct feed video if anyone wants to host?

Also I was pretty impressed with Forza's graphics aswell, didn't like the gameplay though.... Gonna check out that Mech game in a second....
 
Also I'm playing this on my 44 inch HDTV.... and get NONE of the Aliasing that I sometimes get in other games. Is this game running in 480p or 720p?? Cause I've never had a game look so good in high def! :D
 
Conker looks nice, but I don't really like the demo. I don't know, just seemed boring to me. I never did play Conker's though

It's a very pretty demo, but boy what a stinker of a game Conker is. If you people thought zombie closets in Doom 3 was irrititable, play through the Private Ryan corridor crawl. Why toss a relentless stream of enemies that surface inches from Conker, and NOT give us a melee attack?

I'll not forget to mention the laser jump puzzles that are impossible to judge, and a camera that is a nightmare to deal with on the beach.

I remember not liking it on N64, but it was also amazingly easy to forget so soon after that weekend play, this remake is an unnecessary waste of visual polish.

Your gripes are well warrented, but for some reason, regardless of control issues the game was incredibly FUN for me. Sort of like Resident Evil's control's don't detract from how fun the game still was. The controls in conker add a little difficulty to the preceedings that otherwise wouldn't have been there.
 
The demo is great! And it is really impressive graphically. IMO, one of the best looking games this generation. The fur especially looks fantastic in motion.

I am so glad this game is being remade. I loved the N64 version and can't wait to play this one.
 
Conker:)

This game looks so killer. I showed the demo to some non gaming friends, and they freaked when I started to play. They thought the opening cinema was FMV, and then I'm playing!!

And the multi-player video on that disk. DAMN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The explosion effects > all!!
 
I really found no problems at all with the camera or controls. And what was hard about the lasers? I only tripped one my first time through, and I've never played the original.

I do agree that a melee attack is in order.

he was talking about the n64 version, not the revamped xbox one. :)
 
I can honestly say that I'm suprised that MrparisSM is enjoying an Xbox game.

BTW, Conkers kicks ass...the only worthwhile Rare game they made during the N64 days IMO

So why was he only referring to parts from the demo?

I agree with Redbeard, though. I didn't trip a single laser on my first attempt. Don't see the problem. Did have problems with the camera on the beach, though, as it didn't really want to pan where I was pulling the stick. Problem ended once I reached the corridors, though.

Why surprised, the kid loves him some xbox.

Funny how the best kart Game and the best platformer ever still belong to the 32/64bit generation for now....imo. ;)
 
The demo's gameplay is ass. Graphics are above-average but hardly mind-blowing.

I thought the camera was pretty awful on the beach segment. It doesn't really attempt to adjust itself at all or prompt the player in the right direction (as cameras can often do). Until you're really familiar with the area and have died from the gunfire about 20 times, you aren't entirely sure what the best and most proper camera adjustments are.

I really don't remember the N64 game having such an awful camera. If it is going to require constant adjustments, then perhaps this game will just play better with a Smart Joy Frag.
 
If I knew someone with an XBox, I'd force them to buy this, and then play up to the Great Mighty Poo, and then stop...because everything after that I didn't find overly interesting, I'll admit. Stopped around there, my brother finished his file.

But man...the drunk scarecrow, Death and GMP make the game.
 
WTH is that coming out of his head? And if that's Conker where's his tail? That's a tightest a$$ i've ever seen. Tail between his legs?

What the HELL? You claim to wish for Rare back in the day but never got Conker? Come on, man. YOU are the reason Nintendo kicked them out for underperforming games.

that's not the tightest a$$ i've ever see--wtf? YOU SICK AND TWISTED FURRY!!
 
I kind of surprised none of you mentioned that there were at least two worthwhile Rare games on N64. GoldenEye and Conker. Come on, you know GoldenEye was worth it! :D

where tha hell can I get my hands on one of those demos!?

It's in the new Official Xbox Mag.... Try Walmart... they're kinda expensive like $10 and I don't really care for the mag. But the demos make it worth it.

That struck a nerve eh? :) You people should notice a smiley when you see one.
Yeah of course a smiley is enough excuse to troll a topic. Next time I'll go do the same thing on an anticipated Nintendo game (not that there is any except Zelda :) <- whoo smiley, I can troll all I want, this is great).
I guess not !
 
Best looking game? Hardly. We've seen better on all three systems. Good character models, but that's it. Everything else looks pretty standard.
 
OT. but what's so impressive about Ninja Gaiden's graphics? I ran it in widescreen 480p, and the game doesn't look that great. It has major screen tearing problems, and the environments aren't too impressive either.

I had the same problem with Ninja Gaiden in 480p(it really depends on high the native resolution is on your TV though, the higher the resolution the worse it looks.) It looks very Aliased on higher resolution sets(especially Ryu), but everything looks stunning on a regular TV though because the game was made for that resolution. Also when I downloaded the hurricane pack 1, it seemed to clean up the graphics on Ryu's character model in High def, you should check it out.
 
Deepthroat said:
Another OT question.. What is this 480p? Is that widescreen?

Widescreen and 480p are different. 480p is pretty much the resolution on your average tv, but it's a lot clearer because it's Progressive instead of Interlaced. Progressive displays twice the number of lines in a given frame making the image sharper.
