Summary: Really, this is a surprisingly good game. Whether it be the funny jokes, the really good multiplayer, the imaginative storyline or anything else this game has to offer, you know that the developers must have tried hard.
You play as Conker,a red squirrel who becomes the future king as revealed at the opening cutscene.The game is about how he became king, but that's just a really big understatement.The start of the story is when you wake up at somewhere weird, with a pounding headache courtesy of the drinks you had last night. You go on to fight a giant opera-singing poo, to kill zombies with a shotgun,to get turned into a bat and being sent to kill some villagers, to feed a really annoying mouse cheese until it explodes, to destroy a mechanical hay-bale which, after killing, creates a flood which you have to escape from, to go to war to destroy a teddy stronghold where teddy surgeons try to kill you with their scalpels.You even get to play in a matrix-style level where you steal from a bank with your sqirrel girlfriend.There's even more than this, and the story still seems to work well. Double thumbs up.
Oh, by the way, you may find it that I've put 4 for everything but the overall is 5. It's not a mistake, the story gives it that extra edge.
Summary: Conkers Bad Fur Day is a masterpiece in every single way the word the can interpereted. It is my favorite game of all-time. It came out in the end of the N64's lifecycle, so sales weren't as high as they should have been, but even long after the death of the N64, people are still buying this game. And now people in the current generation have played it too, since it was remade on the Xbox.
In Conkers Bad Fur Day, you play as a squirrel who got drunk and got lost on his way home. From there you play in a whole variety of missions(There aren't actually levels, but the game is broken up very well). There is honestly no time to get bored with this game. It starts out as a wannabe platformer, you get to use a shotgun and take out zombies, you get to relive D-Day, there's even a matrix-type level. There are a lot of movie references thrown in there, some obvious, and some aren't. But everything is thrown together so perfecty.
The game is also one of the few games I've played that are genuinely funny. There's a lot of swearing, but it was censored out. Which a lot of people try to say was a bad idea, but it actually is perfect. It makes the game so much funnier. Any game can throw some swears in there to try to be controversal, but CBFD doesn't try to over do it, and I believe it makes the game better.
But still, just being funny isn't anywhere near enough. But thankfully, everything else is great too. During the game, you do a lot of different things. From regular platforming, to killing zombies, to flying around as a bad, to reliving D-day, and racing cavemen. I really could go on for quite a while, which is why this game never gets boring. And the boss fights are funny too, you actually fight a singing pile of feces, but they're still Rare-worthy battles. And that's the main theme of the game, although its controversal and funny, the gameplay elements are still great, and involve some strategy.
The sound effects are amazing, especially for a cartridge, and the voices are great too. There is different music for each area, so it never gets repetitive. This is the best sound on the N64, and can even rival some of the current gen games.
The multiplayer is also well known for being arguably the best on the N64, although Goldeneyes multiplayer is extremely fun too. I personally like Conkers more though, especially since one of the multiplayer games has a reference to my favorite movie...Reservoir Dogs.
And if that wasn't enough, there's also a very good story, although it probably didn't even need one. It starts out stupid, or funny, however you wanna look at it. But this game has what could arguably be one of the best endings of all time.
Overall, I don't usually have nothing bad to say about a game, but I can't stress enough how great this game is, and that everyone should buy it. But I can't write an entire review without saying something bad, so I'll say this, the first half-hour or so was kind of boring, there, I said it.
But honestly, if you haven't picked this game up yet, then you should. Its good enough that you should pick up an N64 just to play this game in its orginal form.
Summary: This game is awesome! This game is better than most gamecube/playstation 2/xbox games. I have played it longer than i can count. It has a very funny story, and the one player mode great. You go through many different worlds and to beat them you have some pretty stupid yet hillarius stuff. The multiplayer games are great too. there are several different multi games but i like war the most. It is teddy bears (Tediz) vs. Military squirels. you can go any where without here peoples heads being shodt of. pick up a chian saw cut them into pieces, or pick up a bazzoka and blow them away. there are manyweapons in the multiplayer games.
Summary: This is the best platform game that i have ever played. Do you recall the little red squirrel with the high pitched voice from diddy kong racing (which almost inevitably came with your N64)? HE'S BACK, BABY!!!! I bought this game waaayy too late. I was bored, I had some time on my hands, and CBFD kept me busy for almost two weeks straight. Conker is that loveable animal character, but with a darkly humorous and mature twist. He got extremley drunk at his 21st birthday bash, and hes trying to find his way home, and the journey is one he won't forget. Zombies, evil teddie bears, singing mounds of poo, dinosaurs, talking scarecrows, surfing through lava... the list goes on, but it all leads down to one thing -- This game rocks.
Summary: Conkers bad fur day is the best game iv ever played. Its histarical withall the characters and things like that its just an all around great game=)
