Conker: Live and Reloaded (BC) |OT| Fur-k Bullshot Simulator

What's wrong with the controls? I wonder how many realize that you could actually walk and aim at the same time in the N64 version? Lol
Well, at least in multiplayer, but it's probably the same for single player too.

Was battling through the rare replay version but quit because of the controls and blurry visuals. This is perfect! Im in!
Every thread is the thread for that kind of thing apparently.
I hope some day MS will release a full proper port for XboxOne with achievements etc like Vodoo Vince.
While Conker is one of my all-time favorites, I disagree.
It's not really a plattformer, very diverse gameplaywise though.
I'm really happy that they made this BC and available digital as well, however I would have preferred a remaster. This game was/is so freaking gorgeous, we really need it in full widescreen.
and it still amuses me that this game was censored more than the N64 version.
Either way, super excited to pop in my disc and check it out with the enhancements!

The N64 version was not censored by the way.
Only thing Nintendo vetoed was the Pikachu joke.
The f-word beeping was on purpose, other swear words are intact.
Read some interviews with Chris Seavor.
The game was also published by THQ, not Nintendo like all the other Rare games.
Also the N64 version is the only true version, for the uncensored great mighty poo alone.

Well technically it's the second :P
There was Conker's Pocket Tales on the GBC in 99, but it was a very different game.
I'm not sure if Nintendo would've allowed for the f-word to be left uncensored anyway. Could you imagine that? Lol!
They only "halfbeeped" the f-word.
You still hear the capital F haha.

And I don't know if the Great Mighty Poo song is worse then any F-word usage lol.

True. There's probably a lot of worse stuff than the f-word that somehow made it into the game anyway. The sunflower "pollination" scene, anyone? Lol
This isn't entire true. N64 developers had to jump through hoops to pass certification, and part of that was a laundry list of subject matter that wasn't allowed. Conker skirted a lot of stuff. Like, Nintendo's guidelines forbade animal cruelty. This mean that (it was either Duke Nukem or Daikatana) couldn't have a sign reading DOG BURGERS, and stuff like that. Nintendo wouldn't let them have a KKK lynching joke in Conker, for instance. (This was replaced by the pot and brush being dressed in black.)

All the swearing is censored, which I think is bonkers, when Microsoft wanted the Xbox to be towards young adults/adults. Takes away the whole feeling and atmosphere of the game. It would be like if they would censor the violence/dread of a good horror movie or censor a standup comedian.
Then keep my name out of your posts. :P
Don't worry though, I'll let you all celebrate in peace. :)

I also love how "shit" is fully audible in some places like the Great Mighty Poo's song and the dung beetle's threats, but then censored in the weasel guard cutscene just because it sounds funnier.
They also changed a lot of small details like Dr. Caroll mentioned here:

I also dislike the new textubbles with the scrolling text.
But the game is a blast no matter the platform and this new patch makes it even more attractive.

The original Xbox cover and format is totally fine and looks great.
Even if I have just a mere X360, I'm glad I'll finally be able to play L&R. Too bad about the censorship, but I still have my N64 (and it's not like I've touched the original in more than 15 years anyway).
Look up the Great Mighty Poo Xbox version and you'll find out.
Spoiler: They censored basically everything
Okay, so pet peeve. In the original N64 version, the opening shot is this:
Which is an overt reference to:
Complete with the tight zoom on Conker's face. One especially nice touch is how the milk in Conker's glass moves around as he drinks.
But the Xbox remake replaces the glass of milk with the goblet he drinks out of at Dracula's castle, and the opening shot is much wider. It's still a homage to Clockwork Orange mixed with Conan the Destroyer, but the overt similarity is gone, not least because he's no longer visibly drinking milk. He doesn't move at all. Literally none of the brooding emotion of the original is conveyed. He looks like a stuffed toy sitting on a throne. The entire plot revolves around milk. It's weird that such a major prop was switched.
I don't understand how/why they messed up that shot so badly. Similarly, they screwed up the shot where Conker begins to realise that he's part of a beach invasion. The door wheel thing spins round and round and Conker slowly turns his head sideways looking at it, increasingly concerned. In the Xbox version, the effect is ruined because they placed a squirrel standing in front of him. There's a level of polish to the cinematography in the N64 version that is missing from the Xbox version. Not that I'm knocking the Xbox version in general. It's fantastic for the most part. Also, in some shots of the Exorcist parody, the little girl has the wrong facial expression. There's a lot of little animation errors and incorrectly framed shots littered through the remake, Maybe it was a little bit rushed or something?
Which version did you play? The Xbox remake is dramatically easier. (Fun fact, the N64 original has hidden Easy Mode cheats. EASY and VERYEASY. Most people don't know about them.)
wow, that sucks.
Seavor has said that some of the bleeping was MS, some of it was him.
I couldn't get into Conker in rare replay, I wonder if I'd like this version more. Hopefully it'll come to gamepass at somepoint!
Yeah.

Picked up the disc version of this a few years ago but never gotten around to it . Maybe I'll finally start it
Awesome!
Correction: The game was self published by Rare in the US and published by THQ elsewhere though thank you for reminding me that this wasn't published by Nintendo. I think that's a fact that many forget.
Also, the Great Mighty Poo song being censored is the only thing that bothers me about the censorship. It's a travesty that it's censored
Yeah, I've been curious why they couldn't make achievements happen with OG Xbox games when Sony could make trophies happen with PS2 Classics
I feel like I played a conker game on rare replay and really didn't like the controlls. Felt very nintendoy
Any chance that's fixed and I can use both thumb sticks ?

This game still looks stunning. Sucks that other Rare games were not remade for the Xbox or moved over to the GameCube. Something like Perfect Dark was practically begging to be on more powerful hardware.
