What parents need to know

Parents need to know that, cute cartoon characters aside, this game is clearly not for kids. Crude humor abounds -- from fighting an enemy known as the Great Mighty Poo to frequent references to being hung-over and excessive alcohol consumption. There is graphic violence, especially in the multi-player first-person shooter mode, including blood splattering on the screen and close-ups of carcasses. This game is also online enabled.

Educational value: Not applicable.
Positive messages: Conker ends up helping many people along the way; however, his motives are usually far from altruistic -- cash is often the driving motivator.
Violence: Both the single and multi-player portions of the game contain a good deal of violence; the multi-player segment is exclusively a first-person-shooter with plenty of blood and guts.
Sex: The king bee hires Conker to get a scantily clad "big-breasted" daisy to "open up" so he can "pollinate" her. Conker's girlfriend, along with other female dancers, is dressed provocatively. Numerous sexual innuendos. The size of male genitalia is an important part of one level.
Language: Frequent use of profanity. The more vulgar language is usually bleeped out -- but is still possible to understand most of what the characters are saying.
Consumerism: Not applicable.
Drinking, drugs, & smoking: Multiple references to alcohol, being drunk, and being hung-over. Some characters are portrayed smoking.

What to talk about

Talk to your kids
Families can talk about the game's sense of humor. Is gross-out humor just a way to get laughs, or is it disrespectful? Where do you draw the line? How does it impact our society?

What's the story?

What's the story?
CONKER: LIVE AND RELOADED is a remake of CONKERS BAD FUR DAY -- one of the last games to be developed for the Nintendo 64. It features the same irreverent content with refreshed graphics and a new multiplayer mode. Conker: Live and Reloaded has two modes of play -- the remade version of the single-player Conker's Bad Fur Day, and a first-person shooter multi-player mode.

In the single-player version, the player takes the role of Conker, a squirrel with a bad attitude and a drinking problem. The zany game starts with Conker waking up lost and with a severe hangover after a night of heavy drinking. His goal is to find his way home and back to his girl Berri. First, however, he has to make it through a series of strange events and even stranger characters.

Is it any good?

Is it any good?
 
There are many reasons why this game is not a good one for kids. One reason becomes quickly apparent: The developers clearly have fetish with basic bodily functions, and derive most of the game's humor from it. Conker also has plenty of graphic violence. Some is in the single-player story mode, but present in full-force during the multiplayer FPS mode. Blood splatters on the screen during combat, close-ups of carcasses are shown and characters can be started on fire.

Moreover, alcohol is mentioned frequently and characters are shown getting drunk. Finally, vulgar language has a constant presence in the single-player story. All in all, it is not surprising that this game is not recommended for children. Even the packaging itself carries an extra warning that the game is not intended for anyone under 17.

i seriously think this game is more funny than filthy
conker, is really not that bad of a game rather than language and sexual content, i mean what is funnier than a shooting squirrel and movie parodies.

Great game, extremely funny
Okay, first things first, I dont understand what is going on with some of the reviews here but I can say this is really good. It sis hard and there is a lot of bloodshed, murder, profanity, sex and drug use.(the whole game is a bad hangover!) This is for SOME kids. let me repeat, SOME kids. people constantly assume the worst of games insult them when realisticly, I think many kids could play this and other M games and not be socially malajusted. You have to know your kid. if he cant go a week with out a incident, then the anwser is no. hell, some adults woulden't be able to handle this game. Just know your kid. thats all you need to know for every game out there.

ONLY get, if you're a fan of the original game...
This game is incredible, it will enlighten dozens of hours of your life, and you will never get bored with it. The only problem is that its exactly like the original. I mean they both have the same story line. Only specific difference is the multiplayer, which is amazing! You get to play on either side of the raging war between the heroic squirrels and the infamous tediz.

I love the first!
When I saw the reviews, I thought, how dare you insult Conker??!! Even though it IS very innapropriate, I played "Conker's Bad Fur Day" when I was 5!(maybe even 4!)and LOVED it. Sadly, my Nintendo 64 was sold and I made room for my N-Gamecube 2 cristmas' ago. When I heard about the sequel, I was so excited! Sadly, It was only on X box and so I was pleading for one. Now, I want a N-DS so I can get N-dogs.

Original version was one of the best ever. This is an above average remake
The graphics are highly improved upon, but man, they screwed with so many cutscenes, too many to go into. I really don't care about the censoring of swears, it's the digital stuff they editted. Some edits seem like they were made by 4kids. (Not a whole lot, but you get my drift) It's still fun, but the multiplayer is where it's really at.

a ok remake. The N64 version is better.
This game is vulgar. But this remake censors S**T and F**K and some of the violence. In the N64 version they uncensor S**T and it is 10X more vulgar.

Conker..
I've been playing the original since I was 4, I would definatly not give this game to anyone under 12, but otherwise your kids should be fine if you keep you conversations about the content open. The worse thing is the Spooky chapter with the zombies and junk, it would easily scare a young child; otherwise I love this game. <3 Conker forever!

makes me laugh while i play it
this game contains crude and sexual humor. contains a scene where you hear a bee "pollinate" a flower with big breasts. there's a level made out of poo, and you fight a big poo monster. the f and s word are bleeped out, but you know what they were about to say.

its a rental
This game is very frusterating with its camera problems,and at times it is funny,multiplayer is good,but, the maine story mode stinks.I dont think that this games graphics are "Some of the best X-BOX graphics to date." The game has many problems. But if you and your friends want to go online and blow some stuff up, rent this game. ITS ALL ABOUT THE MULTIPLAYER!
