As we approach the date when Conker; Live and Reloaded hits our shelves with a frying-pan, sorry, vengeance, many game-sites are starting to claim that May-1st is when we can relive the classic Boss fight; The Great Mighty Poo, and not March 11th, according to [URL]http://www.amazon.co.uk[/URL]'s Conker page. But, are the game-sites beginning to arm themselves against the tirade of Rareware games, or is it just fatcats like IGN and Electronics-Boutique that are impatient?

What are your views on this; the final stretch?

The joke was that Conker wields a frying-pan.

CBFD-champions will know that.

What i meant was that simply, they (IGN and company) don't want people getting their hopes up and asking for pre-orders, that's all.

And regarding the 'frying-pan' joke, you can thank Bullett. He CLAIMED it wa bad punctuation! >:(

What do you mean by this?

Is it that the Internet Press are going to slate it?


Maybe they will, but in this case it doesn't matter because we know for ourselves what Conker's Bad Fur Day is like.
But I don't think they will because I've heard that there's enough in there to make it worth buying a new game, with all the new multiplayer levels and everything.

The Resi Remake didn't give you that much and that got all round applause.


Where the internet press will come in handy is with Kameo, see if Rare's games really HAVE gone out of favour with the industry...
By the by, what's a tirade?
It can't be a swarm because Rare are only releasing a game once are year or so. What's a tirade? :-S

Point out these 'mistakes', ßulle††.

I think you'll find that i've given a small warning to those who may have already pre-ordered C;L&R.
