Conker's Dead Fur Day: Difference between revisions

 

Nevertheless, I was overcome with feelings of nostalgia as I thought about the cartridge, and eventually decided to plug it into my N64 to give it a try. It took a couple of times to start, as even my best working games do, but when it booted up, it seemed to work alright... if anything, a little glitchy. It appeared to be missing the opening cutscene where Conker walked into the bar, the music seemed to be a little off, and the random characters that were usually in the bar were gone. Minor glitches for a majorly fucked up game, so I thought little of this and started up a new file. Once again, no cutscenes to speak of.

 

I was at the beginning of the game, where Conker was hungover and needed to get the remedy from Birdy the Scarecrow. I had begun to remember what I loved about this game, and I was looking forward to the hilarious conversations with the various characters throughout the world.

 

That truly took me by surprise, as it was incredibly disturbing and I really was not expecting him to die from me not controlling him for a period of time.

 

It started to seem like the only thing that the game would let me do at this point was die. I had quickly run out of my starting lives, which I had about ten of. As soon as I lost my last life, I was transported to the area where Death told you about the Conker tails, and how they counted as lives. I thought this was odd, since as I had not seen a cutscene yet, and usually this happened after you died the first time, not after you ran out of all of your lives.

 

It stayed for a few moments, until an evil laugh was heard and the game restarted.

 

After the Rare icon was displayed, there was blood coming from the chainsaw as Conker cut the N64 logo in two. No sound was heard. Just as before, there were no opening cutscenes, but this time, the Reaper was in the bar.

 

"This is your final chance."

 

Upon respawning, I was in a room that looked similar to the last one. Yet this time, there was a grate over the hole as smoke bellowed out of it. As if the game knew I was fixated on the grate, text appeared.

 

The game reset again.

 

This time when it loaded, Conker was a zombie as he cut through the N64 logo.

 

I played as Zombie Conker for a little while, before realizing that the game was going to make me stay that way for the rest of the time I played. I could no longer start a new game, or I overwrite my current one.

 

I have not played that game since, and it had really changed my opinion on Conker's Bad Fur Day.

 

I suppose, in conclusion, if you happen to find a game cartridge that somebody left behind, sometimes it is better not to know what it holds.
