Conker's Bad Fur Day was one of the last games for the N64, but also one of the best games of its generation. Starring a foul-mouthed, hedonistic squirrel, Conker's Bad Fur Day didn't sell well at all thanks to the death of the N64 and the sky-high $70 price-tag. That's too bad, because a large number of gamers missed out on a true classic. Now those who missed Conker the first time around have a second chance to enjoy the comic antics with Conker: Live and Reloaded, coming exclusively to Xbox next year in late March.
Live and Reloaded includes the complete Bad Fur Day with revamped graphics and a few new jokes. This sizable adventure would be worth the $50 alone, but the single-player campaign is only half of what Live and Reloaded has to offer. A class-based online multiplayer game is also in the works and is receiving the majority of Rare's attention. Come March, you'll finally be able to experience (or re-discover) Conker's Bad Fur Day and enjoy some promising Xbox Live play.
Rare is being very tight-lipped about Conker, but having played Bad Fur Day when it was released in 2000 and having spent time with multiplayer at E3 2004, we know what's in store for gamers in early 2005.
To help promote what is already one of our favorite games of 2005, we're bringing you our list of the Ten Best Things About Conker: Live and Reloaded. This wasn't an easy list to compile. After all, there's a lot of things we love about Conker himself and about the game. Ultimately, tough choices had to be made. We left off the Great Mighty Poo, for example, because he is so grand that he is beyond any numbering system (and we didn't have any screens or movies of him).
Yep, the foul-mouthed little b*sterd's new adventure will be upon us soon.
Should be great stuff :)

WAS in January.
Rare pushed it back. Probably to put more stuff in it.
Yey! Didn't know this...
Hopefully they'll make it good. It did look appealing. Like most Rare games.
Still.

What date's that copy out?
I can't wait!!!!
Not sure about the weapon sets thing. It should be amazing anyway. I don't think Rare have lost their touch, and I so hope this proves me right.
I was just writing a general message about the one-player being the same, then agreeing with you about Game's comments.
I'll shut up now :S
