Conker’s Twelve Tales<\/i>! The story of the little game that nobody took seriously, so it started drinking and cursing and vomiting and now EVERYONE LOVES THE SHIT OUT OF IT<\/b>.<\/p>\n

When you hear about Twelve Tales<\/i>‘ conversion into Conker’s Bad Fur Day<\/i>, one foolishly assumes it was a rather basic conversion process. Drop that jumping puzzle, switch it with some bad language, replace the cyclops with a big-dicked caveman… that sort of thing. But then you watch footage<\/a> of the original game, and it really is<\/em> a completely different game. It’s stunning! There’s all sorts of unique content and scenarios that goes completely unused in the final game, and one can’t help feeling a little conned when you could’ve been visiting a saloon full of cowboy cacti instead of swimming through poo-stained rotary fans a half-dozen times.<\/p>\n

Also, more freakin’ Jest<\/i>. The game that never leaves me alone!<\/p>\n

Never Saw The Shelves Week draws to an unceremonious, if not unexpected close: me bitching about things. The regular schedule resumes on Tuesday, so you can look forward to me bitching about things in a slightly different context!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
