Well f**k me, no bloody swearing. That's a bit s**t.

The ommision of said profanities from Conker, is a startling and unanticpated deviation from it's precursor. And my opinion of this can only be expressed as thus: c**t-flaps.

Perhaps Microsoft had used up all the swear words left in the world, cursing Rare for losing whatever creative spark it once had and spending nearly three years releasing nothing but Grabbed by the Ghoulies and promising a remake of a game that was made for an audience from the last century (Matrix references anybody). Sounds like that was worth close to £200 million.
I'm especially looking forward to playing Kameo - Elements of Unoriginality.

>cursing Rare for losing whatever creative spark it once had

Oh get real now. Rare only started 'sucking' when the news came through that Microsoft was buying them. If they were still a Nintendo company there'd be still heaps of praise for their games.

What games? If they were still a Nintendo company there would actually be some games to praise/criticise, as the developer wouldn't have spent the last couple of years porting all it's work in progress to new hardware. But credit where credit's due - Rare doesn't deserve the amount of abuse it gets these days, and I reckon there's plenty of good stuff to come with the imminent 360.

As for this news story, that's pretty damn stupid - Conker's Bad Fur Day is one of the gaming world's rare (no pun intended) examples of a genuinely funny game, and the swearing plays a big part in this. Because it's a squirrel who's hung over and says c**t and stuff... Well it made me laugh anyway
