I always thought the multiplayer looked pretty guff.

5/10 - average
10/10 - Perfect
Therefore 8/10 is way above average.
I'm still getting it - If only for the single player (as I didn't get to play through the N64 version)
Of course swearing doesn't make a game and blah, blah, blah. But its the use of swear words that makes the Conker humour so funny. The Sloprano (singing giant poo) song is really knocked down a few notches because its interrupted by a load of bleeping. :-(
I'm kinda hoping its bleeped out just for the trailers and teaser movies doing the rounds. Probably not though. Dunno why they'd censor it even more with games like San Andreas around that are even worse with the language. Just wait till you guys hear a couple of characters named Paul and Maccer on it !
I'll be gutted if they bleep out everything on it. :-(
EDIT: My bad, its Live and Reloaded. Would still suck to see even more censorship though.

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.

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.
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.
