All these 1 star reviews here a bull. This game, is by far, not only one of the most comedic games ever made, but it also holds a deeper meaning than just trying to be M rated. The over all message of the story is incredible, and the ending will send chills up your spine. The multiple movie references as well are fresh, especially for a n64 title. And while it takes a bit to get up into the full story, this game is filled to the brim with the best sound, graphics, and overall gameplay. Screw Pocket Tales! This is where Conker is really at.

I never knew that Nintendo will let Rare create Conker's Bad Fur day. It is the most vulgar, sexual, violent, and most funniest game ever made. It has 10-10 graphics, and sweet voices. This game can beat c.ds of Playstation 2 (believe me, I have the Playstation 2). I'll give this game a 1,000 out of 1,000.
when I first brought this game I thought it would be stupid,BUT IT WAS NOT.The voices by Chris and Louise are done perfectly.If anyone is reading this right now get the game,it may sound strange at first,the game,but as you play it more it gets better.My favorite part is the multi player mode.
This is the most disgusting game ever made for an Nintendo system and funnier than most movies out today especially the dumb teen flicks that people already seen dozens of times already. This is original and the jokes are original, not dull and boring. The Matrix level is a classic.
I give this game 10 out of 10

Rated M for Graphic Violence,Language,Crude & Sexual Humor
Conker's Bad Fur Day is a very fun N64 game.The funny thing about this game is, Conker was a kiddie character.He was even in the game Diddy Kong Racing.But Coker's Bad Fur Day is not for kids.There is plenty of blood,violence,sexual humor and swearing(though it is bleeped out).The multiplayer is the best part of this game.You can play as four characters in different stages and just kill the hell out of each other with various different weapons.Its very fun and I still play it.If you like violent video games, then you should play Conker's Bad Fur Day but parents, don't buy this for your kids and then complain about it.

Conker's Bad Fur Day is the best N64 game in the world, screw Mario 64, play Conker's Bad Fur Day, the game follows Conker the Squirrel having a drinking contest, then when he had a horrible hangover, he immediately appeared on a distant planet where he must get back to his girlfriend Berrie. Then he must fight Great Mighty Poo and Panther King.
The best thing about this game is the controls that works fine, good audio and voice acting, pretty graphics and non-stop humor, this game is really the best game in history. The only problem in this game is the camera that doesn't focus probably, but this sexual-violent funny game can make you change you mind,
10/10
Why:BECAUSE IT'S AWESOME!!!

Don't let your kids play it. Actually scratch that. They'll find away. Just take me for example. In some ways clunky and dated, but mostly fun and hysterical.

Conker breaks all the rules in Conker's bad fur day. It's one of the best N64 games of all time.
Conker is a little squirrel who must stop the Panther King before he takes over the world. Conker must find his way home and meet up with Barry. But this isn't just a kiddy game. CBFD is a raunchy adult game with ironic colorful cartoon graphics.
GAMEPLAY
Conker unlike other 3D platformers at the time doesn't rely on collect-a-thons but rather solving riddles and puzzles. This gives SO MUCH to the narrative. Conker will go up to NPC's and perform favors in return for anthropomorphic money. Hijinks will ensue. This being said combat boils down to context rather than attack. This may not be fun as say Banjo but it moves quite a long well.
Conker will fly with his tail to elevate to platforms. Each level will be a reference to a movie. From Matrix, Private Ryan to Clockwork Orange. This game has it all.
Conker gains health and life by tails and chocolate.
Cutscenes cannot be skipped. This is makes some levels unnerving.
GRAPHICS
The Graphics of Conker's Bad Fur Day are insane. The best graphics the console has to offer. Every drop of power the 64 has is spent on this game. The art is cute but is bloody, sexual, and violent.
Every polygon is spent on Conker and every character.
You will see baked lighting textures. They are super sharp and superior.
The animation helps make the Conker come to life. Everything has amazing kinetic animation that gives the game an almost timeless appeal. Visuals that wouldn't look out of place 2001 PS2 game. As a result the resolution and frame rate suffer.
If CBFD was any proof of what George Wood claimed that the N64 could produce Toy Story Quality graphics Conker would be it.
SOUND
The sound in Conker's Bad Fur Day is amazing. You will hear swearing, British voices, and the great mighty poo. This makes the game hilarious.
The music ironically cheerful to.
OVERALL
Conker's Bad fur day is really worth a buy.

Originally, this was meant to be a cutesy kid's game, but the designers at Rare felt that would be too similar to Banjo Kazooie. So, it was redesigned into a shockingly raunchy adult game chock full of profanity, blood, alcohol, and sexual themes, albeit with a deceptively cartoonish and colorful environment.
After suffering a nasty hangover from a night of drinking, you'll guide Conker the Red Squirrel on a long, arduous journey home while avoiding the minions of the Fairy Panther King who seeks to use Conker as a makeshift table leg. But don't let the game's cutesy appearance and humor fool you; the ending was a devastating gut-punch that teaches Conker (and the player) a harsh lesson.
The gameplay was fairly simple, consisting mostly of typical platforming and puzzle solving and Conker only had a handful of moves, like his double jump and tail hover. The only collectibles in the game are wads of cash that are necessary to progress further. But things picked up and became more combat oriented by the third act where you fight a wide variety of enemies like the evil Tediz, Zombies, and Weasel soldiers with an assortment of weapons, like a shotgun, duel submachine guns, and a bazooka.
The game has a strong cinematic feel to it, thanks to the fantastic cutscenes. There are film references everywhere: the intro takes after "A Clockwork Orange", "It's War" was a gritty and bloody take on Saving Private Ryan, and "Heist" parodied the slow-motion action of "The Matrix". The final boss was even a Xenomorph from "Alien". The British humor was brilliant and side-splittingly funny; very few games made me laugh as hard as this one did.
The music was great and dynamic. The oldies style music of the hub world Windy was very catchy and spritely, then there was ancient tribal theme of Uga Buga, the low and eerie theme of Spooky, and the (in)famous Sloprano opera accompanied by the Great Mighty Poo's surprisingly beautiful singing voice provided by Chris Marlow. The sounds and voice acting were excellent, considering director Chris Seavor performed 90% of it.
The game pushed the N64 to its absolute limits, and it shows because the graphics and sounds were gorgeous for the system. The levels had beautiful coloring and strong textures like the glowing lava pits in Uga Buga, and the blood-dyed water on the shores of Tediz Island. Other visual effects like sparks from bullet impacts, explosions and smoke clouds, and water dripping off Conker after swimming looked great too. Conker even conveyed full facial emotions and eye movement, and he had full lips sync, as did most of the characters.
Downer ending aside and the disappointing fact that no true sequel will be made, Conker's Bad Fur Day was a marvelous game created late in N64's life and one of the funniest I've ever played. Even today, it remains a cult classic that's still enjoyable.

This game is a whole lot of fun for fans of platforming games like Mario 64 or Banjo-Kazooie.
The tone of the games is usually "mature" (re: fart jokes, drunkenness [which is very different, you must admit, for a game found on a Nintendo system]), so some might see it as purile, but it's always entertaining - simply because they always commit wholeheartedly.
The games is broken up into seemingly unrelated parts that can sometimes confuse as to their purpose, but, in the end, the whole is more than the sum. This is achieved by the legendary Rare with consistently varied and exciting gameplay.
If you're still looking for a good time for your good old Nintendo 64, you're sure to find it in Conker's Bad Fur Day. It truly is a technical marvel for the aging system, and it's a always a zippy little ride.

While it certainly has it's flaws, the attention to detail Rareware has given Conker's Bad Fur Day is anything but second rate. Even more remarkable is that it was all done on an N64 cartridge.
The gameplay is not only simple and attractive, it actually achieves some of the symphonic dignity (and cross-referencing) that other N64 titles simulated so tediously.
With its technological mastery and its subversive humor, this is a kitsch masterpiece, taken too seriously by definition, but not without charm.
I may have grown tired of playing video games as I've gotten older, but Conker's Bad Fur Day holds up as one the best N64 titles, and video games in general.
The one thing I think that hold's it back is the limitations of the N64, which made the game feel sort of lacking in ways. Modders need to find a way to add more levels and multiplayer features to the game to extend it's life.
To bad we never got a proper sequel. Unless you count Live & Reloaded, "(Which of course it isn't.)"
So in conclusion, if you haven't played it, find a way to play it, and experience what this foul mouth Squirrel and his friends have to offer.
As Conker would say, "Marvelous."

He was a character who probably showed potential during his debut. I even thought he was destined for super stardom. But following a fatal mistake applied to him by Rare, we may never know.
Some games are aimed at kids, while others are aimed at mature gamers. But in Conker's case, he first two games are targeted at children before the game makers made the unorthodox decision in going to the other direction for the next two.
Apparently, Conker didn't score well in those mature games, judging by the disappointing sales of Conker's Bad Fur Day. And because Rare did not give the character a sequel or even fixed his personality, the bushy-tailed rodent was just about forgotten. Perhaps Conker would have sold way better had he stayed being in kids' games.
By contrast, other Rare characters like Banjo and Kazooie were never altered. Because of that, those two continue to make games with good sales, therefore keeping their popularity up. I guess this goes to show that it's best never to alter characters, especially if their previous games have a good or at least fair reception. Also, games appear to sell better when marketed to kids or all ages.
Games aimed at mature audiences can be marketable too, that is if the characters are designed for that nature from the start.
In light of the events that occurred, Banjo and Kazooie will remain being Rare's most famous characters, and Conker will likely end up in the video game wasteland.

After they made Banjo-kazooie and Donkey Kong 64 I remember them saying they were going to make another game with one of the characters from Diddy kong racing, with a squirell named Conker. Now basically I had heard nothing of the content of the new game until I saw the rating on the box and the picture of Conker with a beer. And people that did know told me to steer clear of this one. Immediately I convinced my parents to rent the game, Conkers BFD. I was thinking, "How far would Nintendo and Rare go to make a mature audience game". Sure enough this was the funniest crudest game I have played since Clayfighter 63 1/3. Nowhere else can I play a game where you get drunk and p**s on people or fight an opera singing boss made entirely out of S**t. Unlike Banjo-Kazooie, not only does it have strong language, bathroom humor, and even a bit of sexual themes, but you also don't spend endless searches for items and stuff to get what you need to defeat the boss. Instead it consists of context sensitive zones that just gives you what you need.
Also lots of scenes from different movies in the game that will make most adults laugh as well. I highly recommend you play this game. Great graphics for a game that doesn't use the expansion pack and cut scenes as well with good voice overs (hence the british accents). And the best multiplayer Rare has given in a while. Even if some of the gross humor might come as silly and ignorant you will like it nonetheless. Overall you should go and get the total experince that is Conker, who has come a long way from a boring racing game.

This game will go down to be one of the most memorable games for the N64. The most unique thing about the game is how well it parodies certain movies like Saving Private Ryan, The Exorcist, The Untouchables, etc. So if you got the system and you like MATURE-RATED games you'll love this one!

Yep, it's about time Nintendo made a quality game. It's catered too much towards little kids by making about one adult game a year (i.e. Turok, Perfect Dark, etc.) But enjoyment is not reached entirely through Conker's violence, but it has great graphics, challenging levels, a wide variety of multi-player games, and hilarious situations. Some of the toilet humor in Conker is stuff that hasn't been seen before! And it spoofs some of the most classic and favorite movies of all time, including Terminator, Aliens, Dracula, and The Matrix. It's a definite must-have for people who don't mind offensive humor. I've heard there's a sequel coming out and I can't wait!
I started playing Conker's Bad Fur Day for the first time on Microsoft Xbox One as Rare Replay in August 2018. I finished it in October/November same year so I took a break from playing it about few times I think. It's kinda crude and violent but it's a great game
This game may look cartoonish and funny but it's definitely NOT for kids because it has lots of coarse language, violence, alcohol, tobacco and naughty stuff as we know.
In 2001, I hadn't realised why the British video game developer Rare decided to make an adult video game featuring Conker for the N64. I even thought Conker was a family-friendly franchise like Conker's Pocket Tales which was released for Nintendo Game Boy Color in 1999.
Anyway it's probably one of the best adult video games of all time and it's probably one of the funniest video games of all time as well.

Young gamers probably adored that squirrel when he debuted in Diddy Kong Racing, and appearing in his first solo game in Conker's Pocket Tales. When it was announced that Conker would appear again in what could have been Conker 64, the young gamers were perhaps looking forward to it. But when Rare suddenly came up with the bizarre decision of changing Conker 64 into the unspeakably crude Conker's Bad Fur Day, those gaming kids were probably quite disappointed either because of the replacement game's obscenities, or their parents discouraged them from playing or even looking at it. To make matter's worse, Rare never again bothered to make a Conker game that's family friendly, thus alienating the young gamers who make up much of the character's fan base.
Why did Rare turned a nice child's character into such a demented fellow indulged in vices? A convincing answer has yet to be given. But what Rare did to poor Conky is like turning a sweet kid into a hideous and vicious monster. If they need a character for audiences who enjoy such crudities, it's best to make another one.
One may claim that crude game is one of the greatest Nintendo games. I guess that maybe true, although I don't see the game's name on the list of great Nintendo games in Wikipedia.

After two promising decent games in Diddy Kong Racing and Conker's Pocket Tales, Conker was to appear again in Twelve Tales: Conker 64 which is also decent. But before the third game could ever be released, the game developers were already getting vicious taunts from hecklers regarding them and the game. Apparently, the game developers listened to the hecklers, and therefore fell into what later turned into a trap. They changed the really nice Twelve Tales: Conker 64 into the utterly dirty Conker's Bad Fur Day. I have seen a number dirty games in the past but none are as dirty this one.
Why was listening to the hecklers such a trap? When the dirty game was released, sure it was given some thumbs up. But all those positive responses would be meaningless as the number of buyers are less than inadequate. True, there are a handful of likers who embrace it in such an obsessed manner but that doesn't imply that the game is popular which it may never be. Nintendo might have taken a lost, considering how much it costs to make the game's cartridges.
But what if Twelve Tales: Conker 64 was released instead of its disgusting replacement? Needless to say that one might have been a super hit because it's suitable for all ages. Perhaps that explains the successes of nice games like Diddy Kong Racing and Banjo-Kazooie. Also, Conker might have stood on top of Nintendo's mountain alongside Mario and Donkey Kong. Sadly, that never happened.

When the game Diddy Kong Racing was released for the Nintendo 64, it was a big hit as it sold millions of copies. Following the game's release, characters there like Banjo, Kazooie, and Conker would go on to appear in separate games. While Banjo and Kazooie would experienced big sales over the years, Conker would fade away.
What's wrong with Conker? After the character appeared in two decent games, Rare made a really strange move in presenting Conker in a game involving dirty humor. While the dirty game would get some positive reviews, it was a bomb in the market.
Some sources state that Rare's decision to corrupt Conker was a response to the way certain game fanatics ridiculed them for making games that are cutesy or childish. I don't think the ridiculing they got should matter to them because family-friendly games continue to be very marketable. Characters like Mario and Sonic have enjoyed seemingly endless fame because they are aimed at all ages.
Also, I don't think presenting Conker in mature games would be beneficial to the character. I mean a remake of this game was release for the Xbox. Unfortunately, the remake wasn't a best seller, and didn't even achieve platinum hit status.
Well unless Rare cleans Conker up, it'll be the end of the road for that squirrel. Cute but corrupted. Disgustingness and pervertedness are destined to be shunned.

When a creator creates a media for children, that's how everything related to it is going to be all the way. This was not the case for Rare as they corrupted a nice cute character who was initially applied in children's games. How can they do this? No one would do something that deranged. The little gamers who adored that squirrel through his first and second games may have lost their love for him because of the ugly change Rare put upon him and this game.
Sure the squirrel still looks the same. But deep down, he a very different fellow with a twisted mind. Rare thought this strange change would help the game commercially but it didn't. The commercial fiasco also indicates that Conker's star power may never improve.
I wish they bring the nice Conker back. Perhaps that would sell better and even help regain Conker's lost popularity. Why is this a good idea? Banjo and Kazooie have always been presented with such decency. Because of that, those two have three games that are best sellers.

If there's anything more sick than a disgusting video game, it's a disgusting video game featuring a corrupted character who used to be nice and decent. Don't think I hate mature games. I do appreciate a few games with such mature stuff. I just don't like the idea of transforming a cute children's character into an obscene psychotic. In fact, doing so is about as sick as the way some programmers created a nefarious version of Elmo on the internet.
So Rare decided to make something that would appeal to demented players. If they want to, they could just create a new critter from scratch. But they made this really bizarre decision they probably should regret or be ashamed of. While Conker's Bad Fur Day garnered some praise from game reviewers as well as some accolades, it was a commercial flop. The way the game flopped was perhaps so bad that Nintendo ended association with Rare. Rare was never the same promising company after that. I guess it would make better sense had they release that family-friendly Twelve Tales: Conker 64. Games catered to all audiences will always market better. Abominations like this one are destined to be forgotten.

What kind of game developers would turn a nice decent character into a deranged freak? That's the case of the poor squirrel who was once adored by young audiences prior to being corrupted. The developers made that bizarre decision just to fare well with critics. But was the "new" character a commercial success and did it improve his popularity? No.
If you want your game to make great sales, it should be aimed at audiences at all ages. A media featuring a deranged character as well as various obscene themes is certain to flop at the market 80% of the time. Never mind what detractors say on what you do for a long time. If what you been doing is selling fairly, then it's best to maintain that trend.
Poor Conky. Kids certainly missed the clean cute critter you once were. I can only hope those developers reconsider.
