If there's anything more sick than a disgusting video game, it's a disgusting video game featuring a corrupted character who used to be nice and decent. Don't think I hate mature games. I do appreciate a few games with such mature stuff. I just don't like the idea of transforming a cute children's character into an obscene psychotic. In fact, doing so is about as sick as the way some programmers created a nefarious version of Elmo on the internet.
So Rare decided to make something that would appeal to demented players. If they want to, they could just create a new critter from scratch. But they made this really bizarre decision they probably should regret or be ashamed of. While Conker's Bad Fur Day garnered some praise from game reviewers as well as some accolades, it was a commercial flop. The way the game flopped was perhaps so bad that Nintendo ended association with Rare. Rare was never the same promising company after that. I guess it would make better sense had they release that family-friendly Twelve Tales: Conker 64. Games catered to all audiences will always market better. Abominations like this one are destined to be forgotten.
