I always thought the multiplayer looked pretty guff.
It would have been interesting to see a review/2nd opinion by someone who never played the original to see how they rated it.
The demo I played was a lot of fun - so I'm definitly intending to pick it up
2. IGN are really inconsistant now.
3. Complicated multiplayer? OH NOES!!!111
4. Like most multiplayer it's going to be down to who you play it with.
5. It was originally an N64 title that got something like 9.9, you think a re-approached version getting 8.1 6 years later is BAD!?
Tilt - I agree that the beeping adds to the humour, but they've beeped extra words out over the original - including the Sloprano song. Beeping the words in that just seems to ruin the song a bit for me.
> Therefore 8/10 is way above average.
This is true.
But by the sounds of it all the good bits come from the old N64 game. The only worthwhile bits from the new Rare are the graphics, the multiplayer's dull and over complex and they've also dumbed down a few of the sections in the single player that didn't need to be dumbed down.

The bleeping out of f*** and c*** is all part of the Conker humour though. As far as I'm aware there's not any extra censorship that wasn't featured on the N64 version.
