Humorous action-platformer that does away with the tedious item collection found in most games in the genre. Instead, BFD employs a combination of standard jump, run and explore mechanics and context-sensitive gags and actions. For instance, in the beginning of the game, by pressing the B button on the first pad he encounters, Conker drinks some Alka-Seltzer to wipe out his hangover, at which point players can proceed forward. Later on these pads are used to activate a slingshot and throwing knives; to turn Conker into an anvil and drop downward; to shoot automatic, double-handed guns; to activate a The Matrix-inspired slow-motion effect and flip through the air shooting enemies; and much, much more.

I only play in short bursts these days but every single time I load it up I remember why people still talk about this one twenty years later, the humor just hits different than anything else from that era.

pareil, la manette en main ça marche toujours aussi bien pour moi

Pareil en somme, même si Portal 2 propose une maniabilité plus léchée à côté.

Yo también lo he ido dejando y retomando con los años, pero para mí eso no arregla los controles bruscos que siempre tuvo.

Not sure it deserves this spot honestly, when I put it next to Portal 2 the humor holds up way better than the actual level design does, and that gap bothers me more each time I replay it.

Et pourtant même s'il ne grimpe pas des masses, moi je me souviens des soirées entières passées dessus quand j'étais ado, ça vaut plus que n'importe quel classement.

I showed this to my kid expecting a quick laugh session, we ended up sticking with it far longer than planned.

Did your kid actually get the humor or just enjoy the gameplay itself? I'm curious how it lands with someone discovering it fresh.

Et je n'ai jamais eu d'enfant à qui le montrer, mais mon frère cadet a eu la même réaction devant moi il y a quelques années.

Il a un ton complètement différent des autres jeux de plateforme, ça ne plaira pas à tout le monde.

Different tone or not, it keeps winning duels and that says everything about its spot!

A mí me pasó parecido, algunos amigos se reían mucho y otros se quedaban totalmente confundidos.

Ce qui me frappe encore c'est à quel point il ose des trucs que personne ne tentait à l'époque, entre l'humour très adulte et les mécaniques qui changent tout le temps. Il mérite clairement sa place.

Face à des productions plus posées, il garde une identité qu'on ne retrouve nulle part ailleurs, et ça compte dans les duels.
