Conkers's the bad fur day

~~electric_sheep~~ · 05-17-2014, 04:08 PM

Anyone else played this?
This game deserves a sequel, which will unfortanetly never happen

I played through this game. It's especially fun, and very well put together. I'd play through it now, and still enjoy it 10 years later. Probably one of my favorite titles for the N64 console. Not to mention, it's kindly a rare game to find for the console these days.

Yeah, Emulator is the best way...

Except N64 emulation is still in it's infancy, the cutscenes don't animate right in emulators.

Love this game back in the day 2 player was the best.

Lol what?

This game is great, but the N64 version is heavily dated. The Xbox remake is the way to play it. Although eve that is getting fairly expensive.

Homie, N64 emulation's been around at least 10 years. We have working Gamecube and Wii emulation now.

TMNT_Guy · 05-18-2014, 10:37 PM

It's been around a long time, yes, but it's not perfect.

Eh, to me Conker's Bad Fur Day was a parody of all the cute 3D platformers at the time like Banjo, Crash, etc so the blocky polygons to me really add to the authenticity of what their parodying. Besides, the Xbox version was heavily censored.

Peanut · 05-18-2014, 11:08 PM

Heavily censored? What the f*ck are you talking about? They censored "sh*t" and "twat" and little else. Did you actually play it, or did you read a Wikipedia page about it? Nothing that matters was removed or changed. They even gave Conker a more brutal weapon in the remake.

The only people who got up in arms over the "censoring" of the game are man-children who think hearing a curse word is funny and/or awesome. That or they were tripping on nostalgia.

Which is exactly what people who don't think Live and Reloaded is the definitive version of the game are doing. It looks, sounds and plays better in every way. It's a better game on Xbox. Hands down.

TMNT_Guy · 05-18-2014, 11:22 PM

Yeah, it's not a bad port, I just prefer the original.

*Cure* · 05-19-2014, 12:31 PM

It's not a port.

~~electric_sheep~~ · 05-19-2014, 12:34 PM

Never played the remake but i heard they took some parts out...

Peanut · 05-19-2014, 01:11 PM

They didn't take out anything that's worth mentioning. The slight changes they made make the game better. For instance they significantly decrease the length and annoyance of the GMP boss fight by requiring you to throw less corn into the sh*t. They also took out a trashy swimming section and replace it with a simple switch, which is both hilarious AND far less obnoxious.

Like I said, the only people who argue the original is better are tripping on nostalgia or hung up on some mad pointless sh*t.

Which swimming section in particular?

Peanut · 05-20-2014, 07:15 AM

I think you needed to get chased by an electric eel or something? I could be wrong. I haven't played either version in a very long time, but I haven't actually played through the N64 one since it came out.

*XERO* · 05-20-2014, 12:47 PM

Ah, I know that part. It's in the "It's War" chapter where you need the eel to turn on the power.

Peanut · 05-20-2014, 12:48 PM

That's exactly it. That's replaced with a simple switch. It's one of the only cuts in the remake.

~~electric_sheep~~ · 05-20-2014, 01:05 PM

Swiming was easily the worst part of the original game, it's dull it's hard to controll, it's boring and it goes forever so not much loss there....

*LeotheLateBloomer* · 05-21-2014, 11:11 AM

I've actually never played this game but in this day in age, does it still hold up well? And is it better to play it on the N64 or Xbox?

With the recent news of Kinect getting slashed from Xbox One, Rare restructuring itself yet again, and the company being hit with layoffs again, who knows if fans will finally get a sequel.
