From Xbox Wire: "The July Games with Gold lineup is here! On the Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S, explore a mysterious, strange world in Planet Alpha, and create your own levels and destroy everyone else’s in Rock of Ages 3: Make & Break. And for our classic lineup via Backward Compatibility, play as everyone’s favorite raunchy squirrel in Conker: Live & Reloaded, and relive the golden age of arcade gaming in Midway Arcade Origins."
Confession time... I never played the original Conker on N64 and I did not play the xbox remake. It wasnt until Rare Replay that i played a Conker game. I do enjoy the Midway arcade series though. And that Planet Alpha looks kind of intriguing.

Will never understand the love that Conker and Banjo Kazooie garners. I had both on N64 back in the day. Both were just inferior versions of Super Mario 64.
Make it 4k retro compatible, I have my original game ready to play again.
I miss the good ol' days when games like Conkers bad fur day took over. You just dont see stiff like that anymore. My favorite part about that game had to be the heist multiplayer mode, of course the story was good too and funny haha
I must have a true successor to Banjo Kazooie!
I think Conker held up well.
It's still better than a few of the more recent platformers. I played it in its heyday, but I seen it recently in hi-res & such & it looked fairly decent.
Not to mention the hilarious story & memorable characters. & I will never forget the mountain of poo...what other game has an mountain made of poo? & the way the stench fumes levitated off the surface, I could swear that I smelled it!
Also, the gameplay was challenging & unforgiving, but it was well worth the grind, just for the story alone.
Haha why are all the best games from the last gen? Seriously, i remember playing Conker: Live and Reloaded back on the original XBOX and that game was just awesome.
