Now, being a fan of your games, I began to think, "Wait, that doesn't sound like the Rare that hid the word 'arse' in Banjo-Tooie." Sensing tomfoolery and foul play, I raced to your site to find out why Conker was being given the FCC nudge on a system known for its more mature user-base (though I've never given much credit to that statement, given the massive amounts of time I've been called a homosexual in Halo 2).
I promise to withhold from making petitions demanding games where Banjo, Kazooie, and the Battletoads ride Blast Corps vehicles in a race against dinosaur-riding Killer Instinct fighters who are trying to steal cheese from the First National Curd Bank if you will just answer me this: What is the cause behind this? I was looking forward to a prettier version of the N64 game that was, perhaps, even MORE dirty, just to flaunt Rare's newfound console home. And now I see that even Sloprano's song didn't escape the wrath of the censor's pen... blasphemy! This is making me sad, Rare. Very sad.

I'm glad you promised to withhold petitions regarding that particular game formula, because I've just printed it out, scrawled my name on it and submitted it to management. Now here's my Exclusive Insider Source on the Conker team to explain the swearing situation.
"There have been a few *bleeping* censorships made with the new *bleeping* game. But between you and me, shhh… it’s a secret… if you [Dum de dum de dum - sorry, were you saying something? - Ed] multiplayer, you get to unlock the *bleeping* swearing! So, even more of a reason for you to play this *bleeping* game.
"So don’t be sad. You being sad makes me sad... and slightly ANGRY, and you wouldn’t like me when I’m angry."
