A new Conker game.

Seriously. Why the hell do we not have another one of those yet? I thought Rare making the leap to the more adult-friendly Xbox would mean more Conker, not less! And Bad Fur Day was not only for adults, it had heart. It had a point to make. It was funny as hell and made you think outside the box. It's exactly what Microsoft's gaming systems need to stay relevant (they seem to be banking entirely, entirely on fads at the moment, what with Kinect and the nonstop parade of mostly mutually indistinguishable shooters) in the long run. I know Chris Seavor is gone, and that Rare seems to have lost its way, but neither of those things seem like they can't be overcome to me. We need some smart guys working on this pronto.

You know what I want to see in a hypothetical sequel? Conker escaping from jail. I don't mean escaping from a dungeon with a ball and chain attached to his ankle. I mean a jailbreak, man. They put him in an orange jumpsuit and throw him in the slammer. Toss in the expected drop-the-soap jokes and then the fun begins. Conker has to start a prison riot. Mess with a hardassed warden. Let's say Don Weaso is jail too; can't we make something fun out of that? Dammit, I'm salivating just thinking of this.

Oh, and, according to some former Rare guy, Berri was going to come back in a future game... as a Terminatrix who kicked Conker's ass. Wouldn't you have liked to see him deal with that?

...sorry. Sorry. It's late and I'm getting melancholy. But seriously, wouldn't this rule?!

And Bad Fur Day was not only for adults

Pretty sure it was.

Considering that I was no more than nine when Bad Fur Day came out and I had a chance to play it, I'm inclined to agree with Alex on this.

But yeah, a Conker would be nice.

Hmm. Conker. Yes.
Not exactly high on my list of games that I think should get a new title and soon. Make no mistake, its on the list. Its just not high on the list. Maybe the top fifty. Maybe.

No 1, you ask? Well of course you asked. Why wouldn't you?

Back to the furry tailed hedonistic rat. Yeah, he'd be fun to see again. IF he was handled well. Its easy to fuck up something like Conker. We would want to hit South Park levels of funny/terrible rather than Family Guy's more baseline level.

A JSR sequel qould be nice if SEGA could still be trusted with their own games anymore. Maybe if the original team was rounded up.

As for Conker, I'm not terribly eager for him to return. I'm concerned that the developers would focus more on the raunchiness than the gameplay, since the former is what the series has become famous for.

Basically everyone who made Rare games good left long ago. They don't make shitty Kinect games because they want to, it's all their good at anymore.

Remember! Hyperbole is an exaggeration made for comedic effect, and shouldn't be taken literally!

Ironically, the Xbox remake of Conker was censored. The original Nintendo 64 game wasn't.

Alex, you could not have misunderstood me more. I meant, "In addition to being tailored specifically to adult sensibilities, it had..." yadda yadda yadda.

Didn't it become uncensored when you beat the game, or...

It wasn't uncensored when you beat the game. The censoring was done to the actual audio track itself.
