Forums - Gaming - Conker Live & Reloaded is the best looking game of the 6th gen!

Okay.  I'm at work so I can't post pics/vids but my kid and I have been re-playing Conker  for the Xbox on my Xbox 360.  I assume the 360 bumps up the resolution a bit but this game never feels like a 6th gen game.  The presentation just makes my jaw drop, time and time again.  This is the Rare that I miss.  I'm gonna go ahead and say it:  If there's a game frrom last gen or even on the Wii that looks as good, I haven't seen it.  If you have a 360, get your hands on this instant classic from last gen (and the gen before on N64)!

Believe me, it doesn't need to be remade with HD graphics.  The 360 bumps it up so that it runs crystal clear on a 1080p HDTV and the textures and details are still impressive.  I wonder how people felt about this game when it dropped back in 2004 or whatever.  It had to be ahead of its time.

But yeah.  This game NEEDS to be available for download on XBL and if they toss in Achievements, I'd buy it again.  I got it for $10 a couple years ago and like I said, anybody that sees this title should snatch it up.



Now I'm posting here!



It was without a doubt among the best looking games of last gen.  I would personally say that F-Zero GX, Ninja Gaiden and Rogue Squadron 3 were it's equals though.

I remember playing this game. It was awesome!



Alright this thread has peaked my interest in the game......care to answer a question

 

I played Conker 64 but other than graphics is there anything else new, for example new side stories e.t.c??

Not really.  There's a little bit in the beginning (where Conker is even told that the developers thought that if they change the beginning, people might believe it's a new game) and a few unexplained switches (like some profanity being edited) but aside from that, it seems almost exactly the same.  I think Rare just took the opportunity to take a great pre-existing game and just give it the best graphics possible at the time. 

Rare used to always have a talent for graphics.  Their N64 titles were among the best looking for the console.  I always felt Starfox Adventures was one of--if not THE best looking Gamecube game.  They brought their talent with them when the updated this game.  I miss the old Rare so much.



I didn't plau on consoles much then, but I remember being really impressed with Silent Hill 3 graphically.  Bit of a different style from Conker, mind, so hard to really compare.



Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...

Of course! You expect differently from Rare?



Sig thanks to Saber! :D
