Here's a list of some of the Creatures you encounter:- A Giant stack of Hay whole resembles the Terminator - An Imbred and idiotic Pitchfork- A Bulldog Fish- A Shady Weasel- A Scarecrow with a strange Affinity for helium, Booze, etc.and much, MUCH more)Part of what makes Conker so great, is that it Parodys just about everything. But I realize that people have brains, and I woulden't want somebody over the internet telling me how to live my life or whats best for my kids, so it's entirely up to you.The bad. They aren't bad by any means, but they ripped the exact same Voices and animation from Bad Fur Day. The story revolves are Conker, a Party Squirell, who has one to many one night and must venture to find his way home. Check.
Even itself.Saving Private Ryan. Also, why was there no work done on the Voice-work. And the controls get a bit Stiff here and there. Its Class-Based, which is kind of a bummer in some ways, but it means that you can become fluent in one class and still have fun training with another.This is normally the point where I would warn all Parents that the Themes are very Mature, and so on and so forth. All the while, an evil fairy Panther King is looking for a replacement leg for his table, so that he may enjoy is milk. Conker: Live & Reloaded is a game that will have you laughing so hard, you might just put The Joker out of buisness. Conker: L&D is a complete Re-make of the Infamously wonderful "Conker's Bad Fur Day" that came out on the N64.
It doesen't break the game, but it certainly is a dissapointment.If your looking for a little Fun and some good laughs, this is the game for you. The only person who is able to fill this void is Conker, and the King will stop at nothing to have him captured. Well the Camera can get Finicky at certain tight spots. (Don't believe me. Even Van Helsing.When the course of the Storymode is completed (About 6-8 hours Depending on Play-Skill and time spent playing) Your able to hop online and duke it out over Xbox Live, or with Bots.
Check. The whole adventure is just Far-out insanity as Conker encounters a Bevy of Strange and Unbalanced Characters. The Matrix. My biggest issue with it is the Censors.
You pick between Grunts, Demolishers, Longrangers, Sky Jockeys, Sneekers, and Thermophiles. Despite what most people say, mainly the people being killed, I believe that each class is fair and can be stopped by the right kind of teamwork. But I still stand by the fact that though it may not be a better game than CBFD, it is still a great game with really fun multiplayer that will keep you busy until Xbox360 at least. Because Sky Jockeys are the only class that can fly, most people don't allow them in a game.
But most things that are unlockable are for Live and can therefore only be attained by online play. It's all still the same basic melody but with better instruments and overall quality. There are even un-ignorable bads like the soccer-mom-censorship. That's some fine graphical power. I think the score might have been higher if that were the case.8/10-Multiplayer-So much that is different is still so similar and the reason to buy the original is the same reason to buy this one. Each have their own series of weapons, grenades, and specialties. Also, I don't get why they didn't censor the British pronunciation of the S-word, rhymes with "mite." Oh well, it's not too terrible, but it and sometimes too soft music did lower the overall score of what is otherwise terrific sound.
Then during the last part of the game, everything changes and is very different, followed by familiar material only to be replaced with surprising Tediz encounters.To be completely honest, most of the new changes work but parts of the game were made easier, like the cows. That's right, you don't just swing a frying pan by pressing B. But they can easily be taken down by a Demolisher with upgraded guided missiles. This completely changes many things, such as the Great Mighty Poo Song.
I must say that they are very impressive. This means that for a portion of the game, everything is equally as difficult, or easy depending on how you look at it, and then all of a sudden, The Great Mighty Poo doesn't just take one hit. That reason is the multiplayer. I couldn't believe how wonderful, crisp, and clear the voice acting was in comparison to the original.
All the original favorites are not here. Personally, the ability to move the camera with the right analog stick won it all for me. And some things like being able to move while peeing and crosshairs for throwing knives are almost essential changes. No problem, mon frere.
No Weasels and no Cavemen. The Conker Bots are back, called Dumbots. Personally, I think they could have gotten by without changing any of the gameplay and just giving us camera controls and better graphics. I was also more than a little disappointed to find that characters expressions are less frequent than in the first, though the body language is more predominant. It kinda makes Conker's line: "Is this the testing department's day off or something" hit a little too close to home. So that's definitely a problem.However, like I said before, many more monsters roam the land and add new challenges to you mastering your combo attack.
You see, strategy and teamwork are the key.Can't stand the presence of others or don't have Xbox Live. By playing Chapter X, the multiplayer storyline, you can unlock various niceties. The lava-board racing scene has sweet rocking electric guitar music. Keep that in mind, and you'll have a ball playing an above and beyond decent remake of one of your favorite games.8/10Conker: Live & Reloaded They only have three levels of difficulty but their gameplay will seem familiar, that is, Einstein is back. I'm sure this uses the Xbox to its full potential (just like the original did for the N64) as I was able to spot the occasional slow down, never to a horrible extent mind you. Now the cows all only take one hit. Just look at it as a remixed soundtrack.
Though very skeptical about the changes made, my overall view of this game is a good one.-GRAPHICS-Well everyone knows the reason to get this game is the beefed up graphics from the original. These are good changes. Then, not so much is different for a long time. They also have various other differences like vehicles, upgrades, and Special Ordinance devices (like turrents or mines). As someone who played the original CBFD (Conker's Bad Fur Day to those who don't know) until this game was released on Ye-Olde-N64, I have every single line memorized and quite frequently quote the game like a little dork. However, there are some graphical errors like missing explosions or the occasional no splashing when Conker dives into the water. I only had to feed him three sweet corns instead of six.
But you can't deny the beauty of this game despite its downsides.8/10-SOUND-This was the nicest surprise for me. So don't go in with too high of an expectation, CBFD fanboys, because it is not what you will play. Right off the bat of playing, you'll find that there are more monsters around after an extremely modified training level. Even the opera singer for the Great Mighty Poo is different and, oddly enough, more baritone and not able to go as high as the previous one. One brand spankin' new feature is the class system, which I adore. The rest of the game is almost identical to the first. I really didn't have any problems with these basic changes.However, there are quite a few extreme changes to the censorship. Therefore, I was able to make quick judgments about this game right away.
There are now no S-words or TW-words left uncensored. Not only have the voices been fixed and the sound effects re-mastered, but the music has been changed as well. The poo glistens in the sunlight for crying out loud. It is censored with farting noises, which is really cheap and quite stupid. utterly. There's no little ringing in the background and there's no muffling of certain characters.
I will try not to ruin anything when describing the differences. The added voice acting was really apparent and stood out from the original Conker's lines and Gregg's original lines for that matter too.8/10-GAMEPLAY-Just like the original, there are two major parts to this that will earn their own scores.-Single Player-To tell the truth, there are these little bursts of new content that pop up not very frequently. However, there is a very intense and very fun series of battles between the Squirrels and Tediz. I don't why they made these changes but I think it hurt the constant raise of difficulty that you went through in the original. For some odd reason, best known to old Billy the Microsoft King, this game is more censored than the original. Whoa, where did he come from.
I do imagine that Chapter X would get boring more quickly than the original's multiplayer games, so beware if you don't have Xbox Live that multiplayer might be disappointing if you played the original.I love multiplayer and I think it's intense and when you finally get everything straight, it only gets better.10/10-Overall Conclusion-So the changes made are good sometimes and bad other times.
This is my favorite game in the whole world. This is a game like no other game out there, i cant even explain in words how fun this game is. I played this game almost everyday on multi player and never get tired of it, i have gotten so good i can actually go pro. I got this game for the 64 when it came out and i had lots of fun with it, and so when they brought it out for the xbox i had to get an xbox just for this game. This game has a long story mode, and a never ending multi player mode. Defenatly buy this game, you wont be dissapointed, i bet you'll fall in love with it just like i did.
Even when not playing online still fun to play with your friends or by yourself in the single player story mode. Not too long and not too short, the game is not as difficult as the original N64 version but that doesn't make it any less entertaining. Great game remade for the X box with graphics that almost look as tho it was made for X box 360. Some new material has been included into the game, including X box live multiplayer mode. Overall i give it a 7 out of 10.
This game is a classic to have it is fun and worth putting in a collection of games. I have it for my xbox 360 ,and worth the price and it is hard to find.
