Biggest joke of E3

These sort of comments by PR and hype piss me off so much.
Conker was great on the N64. The reason why it was good was because he was he was a cuddly character in the mould of other NIntendo characters, injected with a real badass attitude. The bleeping of f**k actually made the game funnier than if there was full swearing. To me, Conker on the Xbox is just another character and mature game. Not that it won't be good, but I think it's more cliched if it was on Xbox. You guys can disagree this if you want.
And Kameo: the video was cool, but I wasn't looking forward to it when it was on Gamecube, and my stance remains with the Xbox version.
The only games I'm interested in are Banjo and Perfect Dark.
Banjo in full FMV-style glory would be a great sight to see. And a cel-shaded Jo is interesting.
Thing is though, it comes down to gameplay. And, if Grabbed by the Ghoulies is anything to go by, Rare's gameplay goodness days may be over.
So, IMO, Rare may have lost their touch.

having the movie uncencored was cool, since it was a movie, but having it that way made it just another movie full of cussing.

I agree with you all the way.
I have never been a diehard fan of Rare but Kameo didn't appeal to me when it was going to be on the GCN and none of the games Rare showed off for the Xbox even interested me. I read about GbtG and the whole premise of having to press button combos to move after being scared by the ghoulies is stupid. At least to me. Conker online is just stupid, the N64 Conker sold terrible but it has a cult following (? does it?) Rare said they were going to have what five games out by the end of 2003 (? or 2004) and it seems to meet this deadline they are going to give the Xbox owners shovelware.

kameo looks alright but nothing too special
rare is going downhill right now- a lot of their staff left and not all of the talent of the n64 days is there anymore
pd0 should be shown- that would get a lot of people excited about rare again but they havent shown anything
same with a new banjo- if there is any
i never did like their collect-a-thons that much but conker i loved
they should have made a completely new game, but unfortunately that is not happening (at least to our knowledge)

rare needs to get away from adventure games, that vid didnt look very impressive, i mean its just a updated version of the old gc screens, it would proberly look that polished on gc by now

I saw some stuff for this, and it looks okay, but not that different from a million other use-monsters-to-help-you-fight games. Except you actually controlling them, but still. Average, at best.

south park is funnier when they bleep things out...
no it isnt
Post by: Termin8Anakin on June 03, 2003, 04:32:44 PM
on TV, it had to be bleeped. On N64, Conker had to be bleeped.
in the movies, South Park was uncut. On Xbox, Conker was uncut.
It's just that Xbox is a much bigger console than N64, and the userbase cries out for stuff like this, so XBox was the *only* platform in which Rare could make Conker uncut.
Or the fact that M$ forced rare to do so to get hype up.
Either way, M$ just sickens me.

Yeah. I really miss the feeling of Banjo.
It's the only game I'm jealous of. Banjo in fumm FMV quality....ugh!
*punches nearest Xbox fan*
I REALLY hope it doesn't sell good on XBox.
Hey, can Rare sell their game licenses?
Like sell Banjo to Nintendo?

I know it's going to widen the XBox range of games, but i don't think it's going to do THAT well.
People who are going to BUY it are die-hard XBox fans looking for a good game BESIDES Halo (assuming Banjo's gameplay and atmosphere is going to be good), and people who STILL hate Nintendo for selling Rare to Microsoft.
I'm not going to buy it (I want Rare to suffer), but I'll give it a go on my friend's XBox (assuming he even buys it), or at the demos that they will have it on a demo.
