Conker's Bad Fur Day

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.

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.

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.

I know this is an old game (Three years old to be exact),but I've finally been able to play it,and I want to give my opinions.

Conker's Bad Fur Day was one of the last games for the dying N64,and one of the greatest. The story is rather simple:After drinking the night away at a bar,Conker wanders around with a nasty hang-over,and now has to find his way home. Along the way,he meets some of the craziest characters in the history of gaming.

Now,keep in mind that this game is definitely not for everyone. It may look cute,but it's also very naughty. The gore and sick humor earned this game a mature rating. Some of the most insane and disgusting things in game history are here. Still,there's a deeply satisfying,challenging,and hilarious game lying within it's mature exterior. Part of the humor is the several film parodies in the game,including the Terminator,the Matrix,and Saving Private Ryan. The humor in the game is unequaled. Not since Armed & Dangerous have I laughed so hard while playing a game.

Graphics:Unrivaled on the N64. The colors and landscaping fit the tone of each world,showing the true graphical strength of the N64. The environments are enormous and varied,from an Omaha Beach-style level,to a haunted castle. Conker is animated with a lot of detail,as well as the other critters he meets.

Sound:The audio is handled with the same care as the graphics,with top notch sound effects,and the voice acting has a lot of unique,British style humor. The music is very well done as well,it's real music,in mp3 form.

Gameplay:The controls are responsive and simple to master. The only issue here is the camera. Rare could've addressed and fixed it. However,you can rotate the camera.

Lastability:The single-player mode is strikingly short,but who wouldn't want to go back and play it over and over again? The multi-player is also greatly entertaining,and adds a lot of longevity,with several modes based off of moments in the game. The best modes are Beach,Total War,and Heist.

Final Words:The N64 is long gone,but Conker is one of the many reminders of that lost era of gaming. Despite the rather "adult" content,this game earns its place among the greatest of the N64,alongside Legend of Zelda:TOOT,and Super Mario 64. If you're 17 and over,or if you have parental approval,buy this game,play it,and love it.

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.
