    Conkers is a bad Rare platformer with crap jokes. If you are a fan of Big Bang Theory then you might laugh. If you actually like comedy it will make you weep.

    I Your Humble Opinion.....

    I like it.
    Lots do.
    As people also like Big Bang Theory.

    Not every game or TV show that is worthy has to originate in Japan and come with subtitles.

    Conker is not a bad platformer, there is lots of variety, in terms of level design, enemies and gameplay.
    Not to mention songs about poo.
    Big Bang Theory has this


    Watch it all but around 1:00 it's very well done indeed....

    Plus Amy, Mayim Bialik in real life, has a PHD in neuroscience, which is cool.

    That was two years ago...we could have some kind of game swapping session too.

    C'mond guys it'd be a mad laugh... convince the lads in The Rage to let us camp out there with a beer cooler for hours, lol.

    Big Bang Theory is the anti-funny.

    Now I'm off to guffaw at Curb your Enthusiasm :P


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 34,623 CMod ✭✭✭✭CiDeRmAn


    So, if it's anti-funny, why do I laugh?
    It's funny, that's why and so you are wrong.

    Hmm, not liking mainstream comedy.... stank of hipster off of you Retr0.... you have another hidden life awaiting you in the States?
    Stick to the dresses! Don't start wearing a trilby, mustard coloured tight jeans, stripy jumpers and a jacket.... don't do it!!!

    Check out the big bang theory videos with the laughter tracks removed and tell me it's still funny.

    'Laughter tracks'? La de feckin' da, when did we start using that term?

    Forever 'canned laughter' to me!

    /Edit - just wanted to say, The Big Bang Theory is garbage. That needs to be said as much as possible.

    Could it be, that some of us here are television hipsters? Mainstream/modern tv is fairly repugnant in fairness

    I just don't like crap TV. I'm off to hug my boxsets of Mad Men and Carnivale.

    Whatever about the quality of the comedy in Conkers Bad Fur Day, comparing anything to The Big Bang Theory is just plain mean. It's at the same level of utter sh1teness like Big Brother/I'm Not a Celeb Get me Out of Here type crap. No need for "imo" here, I speak the truth. :cool:

    Not a laughter track, it's filmed in front of a live tv audience.
    Ok, so they're americans, but they still count!

    And it's still funny.

    What a dull shower you lot have become.. :(

    Have to be careful... don't want to seem like I'm a moderator trolling his own forum!

    Fantastic images, especially the lower one.
    I love the fact that now Penny can recite the manifold reasons why Sheldon has to sit just there.

    Also worth mentioning the running joke about Penny stealing the boys Wifi and whether Raj is, in fact, gay....
    The belittling of Howards lack of a Phd is also worthy of a "Bazinga"

    When I first heard the name of the show I thought it was going to be about the actual Big Bang and related to astrophysics i.e. interesting. I could not have been more disappointed when I actually saw some of it.

    @OwaynOTT: Faulty Towers and The Two Ronnies fill two gaping holes in your list. Many more could be added too no doubt. :)

    Back on topic I must have a look about for any recent gets, haven't post anything here in a while.

    Well if anyone here calls themselves a nerd or geek the surely you will think that the Big Bang Theory is the best comedy series of all time because its speaks to you. Certainly that's the way it is for me. And comic references aswell! oh gee whiz!


    http://www.gametrailers.com/video/streets-of-talking-classics/720535 Watch the first section of that, before the intro, I love it

    uber +1, I love the 2R's Mastermind sketch. Hard to mention all the good ones in one post but along with those two ^ some others I like myself - Monty Python's Flying Circus, Seinfeld, Open All Hours, Porridge, One Foot In The Grave are all great as well.

    As far as comedy shows goes Frazier is/always will be my favourite and not just because of the dog :pac: (it's just a bonus)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,056 ✭✭✭Sparks43


    And lets not forget Red Dwarf


    Bunch of smegheads the lot of you:D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,560 ✭✭✭✭OwaynOTT


    Forgot Fraiser and Monty Python and Fawlty Towers. Freakazoid should be there as well and Chicken Boo
