Within the 20 years since Microsoft acquired Uncommon in 2002, the studio has solely produced one precise recreation within the Conker sequence, which was the 2005 remake of Conker’s Bad Fur Day known as Conker: Stay and Reloaded on the unique Xbox. I don’t understand how nicely a foulmouthed squirrel passing by means of a sequence of film homages and crude, violent humor would play in 2022, however that hasn’t stopped me from remembering how into that unique recreation I used to be as a younger, impressionable pre-teen.
As a result of I had such fond (very possible rose-colored) recollections of these video games, it’s annoying that Microsoft purchased Uncommon and has largely prevented a lot of the studio’s legacy video games, however been prepared to make use of them in noncommittal methods, reminiscent of dropping the 2016 Hololens expertise Younger Conker and placing the character in Project Spark. Effectively, Microsoft and Uncommon have as soon as once more put Conker’s face on one thing that’s not a brand new recreation, and it’s a collaboration with G Fuel for a Mighty Poo-branded energy formula.
God, the place to even start with this? For these not within the know, the Nice Mighty Poo was a boss character in Conker’s Dangerous Fur Day that was a sentient mountain of shit. Only a large boy of defecation. Not solely did it’s important to battle precise dwelling poop, it sang. It had a stunning singing voice offered by Chris Marlow, who nonetheless works on the studio to this present day. But it surely appears G Gasoline is invoking its title for this collaboration, and who amongst us doesn’t need to be enthusiastic about sentient poop whereas we’re making ready our power drinks?
G Gasoline is promoting this by means of a $60 box set, which incorporates each the Mighty Poo method, and a vinyl determine of the titular excrement from Youtooz that I’m positive could be enjoyable to elucidate at events. Nonetheless, the one possibility you could have in the meanwhile is to affix the waitlist earlier than pre-orders are reside. The field set will begin transport in April of subsequent yr.
Whereas Microsoft continues to place Conker in issues that aren’t new video video games, I assume, we are able to all play Conker: Stay and Reloaded as an Xbox backwards compatible game, or play the unique Conker’s Dangerous Fur Day as a part of the Rare Replay assortment.
