New? Conker video.....

I despise Rare, and I hated the whole N64 platformer overload, but Conker was a really, really good game. Remake looks superb.
 
Wow, looking good. Did Rare add a few new sequences though? I don't remember
Conker reading a magazine while the squirrel fried (which was funny), the firefight with the teddiz before entering the base, or the mutant doctor teddi that broke out of the glass
.
 
Hah I remember this exact level. I also remember playing the original Conker at E3 with all the zip trails and the cute imagery.

My memory is a bit rough but the original Conker didn't have an overarching storyline right? I'm pretty sure it was all a bunch of random events that happened to him, I completely forgot how they were all strung together too. Is Rare trying to tie them all together with a cohesive plotline with this remake? They seem to be focusing a lot on the Tediz or is that simply because of the new multiplayer features.

agreed. conkers was a game that I thought was immature to the point of not even being funny, but it was one of the few N64 platformers (or last gen platformers, period) that i even slightly enjoyed.

When he pulls out that magazine, does it have Master Chief on it or am I just seeing things?

Could very well be. It also seems they are doing a GTA:VC in taking the piss out of Edge magazine, not that I can remember Edge being too hard on Rare lately so it might just be a friendly play on the Edge logo (GTA:VC had a magazine named Erse on the table in the first building you saved in for those that dont know).

And conker looks sweet :) hope the loading times arent too frequent though.

Yeah, those were all added. And the magazine bit is funny as hell. Can't wait for this game.

About the plot: Technically, there IS an overall story, but the game's more about the outrageous situations this poor squirrel gets himself into.
 
Looks great. Unfortunately the multiplayer was a total bore at E3 and incredibly repetitive. The single player will obviously be incredible -- here's to hoping they can iron out the multi.
 
As long as the multiplayer is at least as good as it was on N64 i'll be happy, i'd rather a more polished single player game.

I wish this was on GameCube. :(
