This better not get pushed back any further. Looks like I'm soon to have another life bar burned into my big screen... :crying:

This is looking to be really good.

I played a few hours of the N64 Version and really liked it, I can't wait to finish my experience with this version. I think it'll be great.

I also really like this shot. Funny as hell look on his face.

Woohoo... yet ANOTHER 3D platformer from Rare, and this time it's not even an original one.

Yes, Rare is so great... /sarcasm

Conker was the last 3D platformer I played, and I plan to keep it that way. I had an N64, how many more 3D platformers do I need again?

I've already played Conker. I still own it and my N64. I don't really need to play it again to see 5-15 more minutes of potty humor jokes and 4-6 hours of extra frustration at the extra levels or whatever bullshit they want to add to it.

It's a fact that all Rare seems to know how to make these days is platformers and an occasional FPS.

I'm not buying it for the single player.

this game is looking stupid.

Not to mention... whats up with the fur? its a furry blurry lol.

Its funny though.... no wonder Nintendo didn't buy Rare. What has Rare done for Xbox since 2002 (3 years)......? Grabbed by the Ghoulies (or something like that).

I thought this was a "port with some extras"? I thought I read that on some news site... You sure this is 100% new?

Rare has really gone down hilll from 7-8 years ago. They used to kick ass, but now? Not so sure. Star Fox was complete ass on GCN.... btw, that fur effect was used there, too. I don't like it. From the people that brought us Goldeneye, Blast Corps, Banjo Kazooie, and Perfect Dark... you'd think they'd be better than this. It DOES look interesting (as I loved Conker on N64). Hopefull, even if it is just a port, it should still be good. I'm actually excited about picking it up, but where are the original ideas now? Oh well.

Xbox live my friend. I first saw the multiplayer footage on last year's e3 dvd set from gamestop. Gamespot should still have that and more up... I'm sure there has be improvements since last year's showing.

There's helicopters and shit, it looks tight!

PS: To play games over Live on 360 MS is charging $50 per year. :angry:

fair enough. the 1p is just conker 64 remix with a graphics boost and some extra content from what ive heard. the 2p is completely new on the other hand. a big mp fan is me!

wow a game that didn't need a sequel or remake . . . gets one

I never cared for it

it's "controversial" "funny" for what a 13 year old thinks being cool is all about

with that said though, I found the 2p game fun in the original, especially the piss fight

I still won't rush out to buy an Xbox

It's NOT 100% new, it's just a port with extra scenes/bits, and almost better multiplayer (Live, new levels, vehicles and what not). :annoyed:

necro bamp

I just got this game in the mail today and I'm hooked.

I rented the N64 version of BFD back in the day and had a blast with it...the enhanced port presented in L&R doesn't disappoint. While it is unfortunate I don't see how people can froth at the mouth over the bleeped obscenities; FFS you can hear the start of the swear so it's not totally obscured. I think it actually lends to the whole Rare/South Park mashup feel of the game (uncensored South Park bugs me for some reason).

The multiplayer is hectic but cool, gonna give it another go tomorrow now that I kind of get it. Demolisher FTMFW

Who the hell would be still playing the multiplayer on this?

People who like to play Conker's multiplayer online? :spock:

I played the living shit out of splitscreen BFD on the N64 so it's nice to play an updated version that's online to boot.

I logged in on my original Xbox yesterday and jumped right in to a full 16 player game so there's still plenty of people online.

Nice job bumping a 5 year old thread...... I picked this up at my local private game store here in the city about 2 years ago and like it a lot. So stupid they censored it, but the updated visuals more than make up for it. Unfortunately the jokes and movie references are really outdated. I would absolutely love for a sequel, but I know it will not happen.
