    Considered a controversial remake, but I prefer this version because the graphics, sound, and moment to moment gameplay is much better in this version even if the character and animations of the original were superior.

Menudas bolingas se pilla el cabrón, y nosotros con él y es muy divertido, es imposible no reírse durante las aventuras de Conker, de vuelta a su casa tras una noche de desenfrenos con los colegas.

    Conker: Bad fur day, fue un juego que Rare desarrolló para la ya legendaria nintendo 64. Es uno de esos juegos originales y de gran calidad que el estudio británico hizo para la consola de la gran N en exclusiva. Con el tiempo ya sabéis que Rare fue comprado por Microsoft y lo que tenemos aquí es un remake de aquel juego con el nombre de Live & Reloaded, cuyo título hace referencia doble, primero al añadido en forma de modo shooter multijugador (caducado y que no le pega mucho) y segundo al lavado de cara gráfico del original para la primera Xbox, que es el verdadero fuerte del juego.

    Conker es una aventura de plataformas a la vieja usanza en 3D. La principal diferencia sobre otros títulos del género es la inclusión de un humor negro muy adulto que contrasta con su aspecto de película de animación con animalitos inocentes. Nuestro objetivo es volver a casa después de habernos emborrachado en una taberna, hemos ‘perdido’ el dinero y no sabemos donde estamos. Para encontrar el dinero debemos explorar los escenarios que contendrán diversos desafíos en forma de puzzles, algunos muy ingeniosos, o bien derrotando a espectaculares jefes, cuyo diseño es toda una muestra de imaginación y cachondeo. También tenemos el problema de que somos el objetivo del Rey, un León al que se le ha roto la pata de la mesa que tiene al lado del trono y le impide poner los vasos de leche encima, lo cual es inaceptable. Su mejor científico indica que la solución al problema es encontrar una ardilla roja, por lo que por los escenarios habrá montones de secuaces del rey intentando acabar con nosotros.

    Conker: Live & Reloaded es un juego muy divertido. Que luce bien hoy en día en Xbox One pese a tener los años que tiene. Jugablemente tiene la imprecisión propia de los plataformas en 3D de la época dorada de Rare, pero es un juego muy disfrutable y que merece la pena revisitar en 2023.    … Expand

    One of the most underrated games of all time. It made one of the greatest N64 games of all time even better by updating the graphics and adding a few extra scenes.

    Eu amei tudo que a Microsoft fez nesse jogo de TUDO as cutscenes, as quebras da 4° parede, os pelos do conker, em relação aos gráficos: tudo é bonito sério, parece que eu tô vendo o jogo original de N64 com uma placa RTX 360 de mas de R$ 119,87 na moral que Jogo foda.

    Conker: LIve & Reloaded is basically Bad Fur Day, but with better graphics and multiplayer mode. I played Bad Fur Day a lot, so I can say, the campaign is just funny and entertaining. The multiplayer mode was a highlight in original Xbox Live days.

    Although this remake is ten times more playable and looks a lot better than the N64 original, unfortunately, a lot of the general clunkiness and jankiness of the original's mechanics have still made their way into this version.

Censorship is honestly not that big of a problem since it only concerns very few words. Also, the game of course suffers from the same structural problem as the original where it suddenly turns from a platformer to a mediocre third-person shooter half-way in.

    Some things, though, are WORSE than they were in the original. Remember the green guys in the sea mines (maybe not since they played a very minor role in the N64 version)? They are now walking around pretty much EVERYWHERE, blocking your path. And each of them takes SIX!!!! hits to kill. So, walk up, attack, step back to avoid their attack, attack, step back, attack, step back etc. Repeat that six times for EVERY one of those guys. Sometimes there are honestly four or five in a straight row! The fights with them never get more interesting than this. Wtf was the point of adding them?? It serves no gameplay or story purpose, other than maybe meaningless and annoying padding.

    Also, the height from which you take fall damage is still straight-up RIDICULOUS! This is a PLATFORMER! In any other game in the genre, you a) don't take fall damage from such low heights and b) always have access to a move that completely negates fall damage, like Mario's ground pound. Neither is the case here and it is annoying as all hell. Losing a third of your health because you "fell" from a platform three times Conker's height is just bulls***.

    All that being said, the humor and cutscenes are pretty much 100% intact here and the game still looks and controls much better than the original, so I would still recommend this version over the clunky original, at least when it comes to the Single-Player mode.    … Expand

    Es un gran juego, en definitiva no tan espectacular como el de Nintendo 64 pero viendole individualmente como si mismo es un gran juego. Revisitar la historia que hizo a Conker un grande es un placer, aunque sin embargo la censura le resta unos pequeños puntos. Me parece fue u gran juego en su época

    Il s'agit d'un jeu multi-joueurs avant tout avec des écureuils vénères qui s'en vont en guerre... Or je suppose qu'à l'époque de la Xbox (la toute première), le jeu pouvait sans doute s'avérer relativement amusant dans cette optique. Mais actuellement, que ce soit sur la Xbox ou la Xbox 360 via l'émulateur ou bien sur la Xbox One via la rétrocompatibilité, le multi n'est plus disponible.Il s'agit d'un jeu multi-joueurs avant tout avec des écureuils vénères qui s'en vont en guerre...

    Il reste les bots pour faire quelques matchs sur quelques cartes... et on se rend vite compte que de toute façon, la jouabilité est à la fois hasardeuse, bancale et très imprécise. Sur la Xbox One, la résolution est singulièrement augmentée (Dieu merci) mais le jeu reste globalement très flou et blafard, ce qui rajoute à la confusion ambiante.

    Il peine d'ailleurs à maintenir ses 30 im/s... En dehors du multi (désactivé), aucun solo pour se sustenter, aucun scénario, rien : juste les bots à la con. Conker est donc une coquille vide à la jouabilité foireuse, un truc qui ne sert à rien : une merde.    … Expand

    Sinceramente, esperaba algo mejor, desde que anunciaron su salida me puse muy contento (A pesar de que era un Remake) pero cuando gaste lo que quedaba de mis ahorros, me llego la gran decepción, el juego tenia muchísimas censuras lo que vuelve aburrido el juego, y que hallan removido el modo multijugador que solía divertirme mucho con mi hermano. no recomiendo mucho el juego.

    (This is a post review past the time XBL has expired, so I will leave that out and rate it based on how much you can pick this game up for, I also have not completed the game as the disc will not let me continue the game, (more on that later))

    I played a few levels of the N64 game, Conker's Bad Fur Day, I bought the game because I got it for a good price considering how much it went for    (This is a post review past the time XBL has expired, so I will leave that out and rate it based on how much you can pick this game up for, I also have not completed the game as the disc will not let me continue the game, (more on that later))

    I played a few levels of the N64 game, Conker's Bad Fur Day, I bought the game because I got it for a good price considering how much it went for on Ebay (around 60 USD) I picked it for about 50 and it was good, really enjoyable in some areas but I could see some age in it.

    Conker: Live & Reloaded still has some of that lingering "age" in it, certain parts of the game may require a quick look at a walkthrough online as it might not be clear what to do at some parts or where to go for certain objectives. The gameplay is pretty good, and the humor is great, The main thing about this at the time of release was the Multiplayer (and by the way, there is no original multiplayer from the n64 game if you were interested) but the singleplayer included a whole new chapter that featured Normandy style battles mixed with sci fi. There are some huge complaints about the controls, let me explain: you use a melee weapon for most of a game, now rather then just pressing a button to swing, you instead need to pull it out and go into a mode where you strafe, let's call it "Strafe Mode", when your in this strafe mode you use the trigger to attack and you attack more frequently then you could in the original game, you also can't turn around, you are locked into a strafing mode. There are also more enemies this time around, so it can work to some extent, but I hear later on you get a gun so it might change, also when I tried offline live and reloaded, you know what button jumps? Clicking the stick... Enough said. But the part I really didn't like, was when you would jump into a deep body of water, the camera just freaks out, it's really terrible trying to move around right in water. The reason why I haven't beaten the game is that when I got past the caveman/bar area, I got to this point where I needed to race these caveman who stole my money, well I get on the board and I could loop around the track forever but the cavemen-racers won't spawn. The graphics in this game are amazing, everything looks beautiful, it's fun to play out the story and see what jokes are coming next tied in with some good platforming. To recap: questionable controls, frustrating level design moments, great humor, hours of campaign, fantastic visuals. Today you can pick up Live for about 35 USD average on EBay. It's worth it but bear in mind that the Xbox 360 has freezing issues with this game (there's a list of problems certain xbox games have when ran on a 360) when I tried this on xbox 360, it froze within the first minute, I just went out and bought an original xbox. Unless your gonna get an xbox to play a bunch of originals along with this game, don't buy an xbox over this game, test to see how often the game might freeze and decide whether you want to put up with it or not.    … Expand

    Well If you would see my review of the N64 version you would say "Oh well it'll be the same as this one!" Then your wrong,this game was not even worth being a re-make of a good game...ON A OLDER SYSTEM! I mean the graphics were bumped a bit and oh that makes a great game.....NO! The multi-Player was slightly **** if you didn't have Xbox LIVE.

The are very slight changes within the single player mode, but the only way I noticed them was because the game makes a point of telling you (I'm assuming because not many people would notice on their own). Now onto multiplayer, control is somewhat clunky and you'll find yourself frustrated by being bounced around uncontrollably after getting hit, this can be taken advantage of by pilots who realize this and wait until just before you come to and repeat the process until you've kicked the bucket. In other words, unless one of your teamates comes to the rescue or you're being attacked by a pilot who doesn't know better, one hit will seal your fate. Still, it is neat gaining points to unlock new avatars. More games should have features like that. However, in an attempt to get everyone and their mother on X-Box Live, Microsoft and Rare have made this game only 1 player per system in system link (Lan). Note to Microsoft, I have X-Box Live, I prefer to play games with my friends, in the same house. Give me my 4 player split-screen Lan! I do not have 16 tvs, 16 X-Boxes and 16 copies of the game at my house, and even if I did I'm sure I would blow the fuses! Conclusion: This game was delayed for over a year, I'm not sure what Rare did during all that time, but it definitely wasn't making improvements to this game. If you've never played the first one, the single player might be worth it to you, some good laughs await inside. But, if you have, pass on it, or rent if you're really curious.… Expand

    Rating such a schizophrenic beast is tough. But one thing's for sure: If you're in the mood for a retro-styled, light-hearted platform game, you'll love Conker. Equally, if you're looking for high-adrenaline Xbox Live thrills, it'll be right up your street.

    As a complete game package Conker: Live & Reloaded is tremendously good value. Significantly, it also shows a company finally back on form. [Aug 2005, p.93]
