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.
What's it about?
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?
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.
What families can talk about
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?

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!

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.

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.

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.
