I've just found out that Conker's Big Reunion, a follow up to the N64 classic Conker's Bad Fur Day, was released in 2015 for the XBox One, and was also apparently playable on the PC. But Microsoft then withdrew it from sale, so you can no longer get it.





Oh, and to judge from it's appearance and the comments of people who've played it, it's not good at all. And, amazingly, if you watch this video of it being played through, and compare it to Conker: Live and Reloaded on the original XBox, you'll notice that the game from the original XBox (two console generations ago!) looks better than this game does:

Alright, so this was a game apparently made by a game making program on the XBox One, but how does that excuse the game looking worse than one from more than a decade prior? And the new game seemes distinctly lacking in humour, clever touches, and imagination, especially when you consider how amazing the original game was.

And granted I don't have an XBox One, so I'm mostly ignorant of it's games, but I'm a PC gamer and this can apparently be run on the PC, so I'd have expected to hear about this on PC forums, but no. Did Microsoft not publicise this on the PC websites and forums?






Quote "Conker's Big Reunion was a third person platform game released as a digital add-on for Microsoft's Project Spark. The Game takes place 10 years after the events of Conker's Bad Fur Day. It expands upon the world and features familiar places.

The game was released on April 23, 2015 worldwide and cost $4.99 on its own. It was also released with the Conker Creation Pack, a pack that lets you create your own levels using Conker, for $9.99. However, Project Spark, and therefore Conker's pack, became completely free on October 5, 2015.

On May 13, 2016 Microsoft announced that Project Spark would no longer be available for download and that online services would no longer be available as of August 12, 2016. DLC content is no longer accessible, including all Conker based content (unless previously downloaded), and all further Conker's Big Reunion episodic content has been cancelled. "
