He looks as expressive as a fucking piece of wood.
Hell a piece of wood is more expressive than that.
One of the saddest things for me is hearing that old Rare music, makes me think of the good times. Banjo-Kazooie Nuts&Bolts Spiral Mountain theme makes me both happy and sad at the same time.

I still don't understand how they made that game look so good on the original Xbox hardware.

There were games last-gen that didn't even look that good.
Microsoft, much as I think re-releases can be unnecessary, just give us a 1080p port of Live and Reloaded (without the absurd censoring) and I'd be a happy fella.

edit:

Because, I think you can call this fan boyism but, Rare were masters at their craft. All the games i've played weren't considered bad, and fuck I don't think they had a bad game at all. They shown the way for platformers, and when Rare died, I think most of the platforming genre died with them.
It's a shame what happened to them really. A great developer canned due to some dumbshit reasons.

The fact that the original Bad Fur Day looked as good as it did was nothing short of a marvel while managing to have the full game with voiceovers on a 64 MB cartridge. It was the N64's GTA V.

Keep in mind that it was cancelled before Phil Spencer became head of Xbox. I think we'll see Conker return.

I don't think they can pull it off. All of the old guard who actually worked on those classic games from Rare have left.
Rare is a husk propped up by a throne of cash and past glories.

For an original Xbox game (fucking Xbox One i swear to god) that really does look like something straight off the 360. It's impressive what they were able to really gleam from the hardware back then through some advanced work.

Rare was gonna one-up themselves with Dinosaur Planet. It was to have even more. IIRC it was just missing an ending before it got moved to Gamecube.
Old Rare were fucking bosses and knew their shit arguably better than anybody at the time.
New Rare is living off of Old's past glories. I think that says everything you need to know.
For the model, they could have, should have, ported the Live and Reloaded model and mess with that a bit.
The eyes on the current one [B]BEG FOR DEATH[/B]
[QUOTE=1STrandomman;47358458]failing to animate the eyes has to be one of the worst sins an animator can commit[/QUOTE]
they are animated. take a second look.
just nowhere near expressive enough. that has more to do with the brows than anything.
Why the fuck does Microsoft think that fans of conker will agree with his comments about: explosions, guns and farts? This is just like that game genie in banjo nuts and bolts.
Trying to reach the lowest denominators there is with petty, lame, try-hard jokes?
Try again Microsoft.
This shit will kill their image and they will never make anything like it because they don't want to lose money. I'm fucking pissed. Just do it right for fuck's sake, the script and levels basically writes themselves. Why include a gimmick? FUCK THIS SHIT.

It's mostly because he's literally doing idle talking animations that aren't even lip synced, they didn't even really put any effort in to have his eyes looking or reacting to anything outside the animations.
His facial animations feel so lifeless, there's barely any movement in his eyes. Kinda disappointing.

i'm pretty sure it's because it's all in-game, meaning you could hypothetically recreate this trailer yourself
Man, get a load of those PS2 graphics and PS1 animations. Next gen is finally here!

I thought you were fucking with us
that's actually very grim how it looks better
i think they went in the right direction with removing his fuzzy fur he had in the original xbox version, but this style still feels way off. they just need a basic model with really subtle fur. not these weird stylized swirls all over him

To be fair, I think that's more in part due to the Project Spark art style.
Its the eyes. Compare the screenshots J!NX posted with the eyes in the trailer.
THAT is the big ass main reason why its all fucked up. They made the eyes too big. The teeth and mouth are also a bit oversized, but really when you look at someone, you naturally look at the eyes.
[QUOTE=ProffesorAssHat;47357895]Don't worry guys. Playtonic Games is working hard on Project Ukulele. We don't need to deal with Microsoft's bullshit of ruining Rareware games cause Project Ukulele will make us forget about the bad times. Yes... no more nightmares...

the story that "microsoft ruined rare" really isn't true

[QUOTE]“For me, it was more about [Rare founders] Tim and Chris Stamper leaving,” says Playtonic technical director Jens Restemeier, who worked at Rare handling handheld conversions of key titles. “There was no sense of progression about what the company was going to do from that point on. The story people want to hear is that Microsoft came in and destroyed everything. It wasn’t like that. They gave us freedom, almost more freedom than Nintendo gave us.”[/QUOTE]

The power of the cloud!
It's pretty obvious that he looks different because of a different art style. Not saying it's a good art style but just pointing out that it's not unintended.
his gloves look fucking metallic
