I do not care if it is an X-box game but this is the single best announcement (next to Geist) at the E3 games show.

Conker rules and it looks like the superb WAR game... and that really is excellent! I cannot wait to get that... when that is release I will buy an X-box... but just for that and Jet Set Radio... as I can't afford anything else.

I love conker... come home.

Maybe they're giving X-box fans to chance to catch up.

If there is enough change to BFD I WILL buy an X-box for this alone.

When I first heard that a new Conker game had been announced, I was kind of excited, and eager to find out what this game is all about - after the superb platform-adventure swear-fest thing on the N64...

But when I read that it was going to be some boring, old multi-player, on-line, war-type game - just like almost every-other popular PC/X-Box game, I instantly clicked the Back button!


Microsoft are obviously TELLING Rare what to do!
Yes, the multi-player modes were great in Conker's Bad Fur Day, but why can't we have an all-new adventure and follow-up, instead??

It really isn't like that. I've been playing cs for about 6 months now and it's all about team strategy, if u carry on playng it then u'll understand. My 1st try at the game was jst like urs. Has for the controls have u changed any of them??

I'm gonna go try Counter Strike again, I thought from the training thing that it'd be a game i'd enjoy.

Once I got online though it was another story.

You get used to it.. but you have to configure some stuff first but i guess you can't be bothered with that.
I like both my console and use it for 4 player laughs and good all round single player games pc and use my pc for online gaming and shooting games, web browsing, downloading, listening to music and using programs. I'm happy with both but online gaming is rewarding once you set it up the way you like and and get playing for a while its fun nothing like a good old pc shoot em up they virtually last for years.

I've tried to like it, i really have, but PC online gaming is utter balls.

The servers are full of wan-ers and you need a degree in computing to set them up properly.

Oh and I don't care what anyone says, keyboard and mouse controls IMO are stupidly sluggish and just crap to use. Give me a Cube controller over them any day.

Please note : I don't want to start an argument so don't try and defend the gay controls, I'm really not intrested in a discussion, they're just my views.

Erm...
you must be doing something wrong.
Counter strike is good but its not the best Tactical ops forever!
Don't give a damn if it's on X-Box PC online gaming is better.
