Entertainment/Gaming Consoles

I'm familiar with the concept of the game and have seen the trailer for it (Rare sent out a mini-movie with the "Saving Private Conker" cinema and other skits, and it was hysterical). The sense of humor is great, and the fact that _Rare_ (whose other N64 output was often just short of Teletubby overcuteness) put it out was awesome.

I'm just not much for 3D run-and-jump-and-climb games in general, so while it may be the masterpiece of its genre, it's not on my must-have list. (Sort of like how I can't stop pimping Disgaea: Hour of Darkness, but it's pretty much the antithesis of what a FPS addict would likely be into.)

Not to mention that I have waaaaay too many games that I haven't even started playing yet. Kingdom Hearts has been on standby forever. I may get to Metroid Prime soon, because my wife's having surgery next week and will be on leave for a couple of weeks, so I'll let her use the PS2 for Fatal Frame 2 and Silent Hill 3. I haven't picked up VF4: Evolution yet, but I need to. Fatal Frame 2, Monster Rancher 4 (drool!), Manhunt, and TWO classics packs (Midway Arcade Treasures and Intellivision Lives) are all tentatively scheduled for next week...

Duck's bastard cousin is, of course Kyoshiro of Samurai Shodown fame.
