It’s there that you stand, surveying all the land as your own...being acknowledged now as the new king of this world. However; does this appointment make up for everything that has happened in the past? With a glum look on your face you sit there reflecting on your recent experiences and losses, while having a drink at the same time. So you wanna know the story behind this animals expression, well it’s what many would call a traumatizing experience or in this squirrels native tongue...a bad fur day. Let’s just hope this review won’t suffer through the same fate, let’s see if it too will encounter a bad fur review!


Graphics: 9 out of 10

The graphics in Conker’s Bad Fur Day I believe actually complement the games story and atmosphere, and looks great for the N64 in 2001 so if there was only one game I could compare it to then it would be Donkey Kong 64 but with advanced graphics. One of the best things I feel they did was when Conker is drunk/wasted is the making the game screen move back and forth from left to right and sort of gives you a perspective on what the character is experiencing. This game definitely tops many other well-known N64 games like Mario 64 or Zelda Ocarina of Time to even Banjo-Kazooie although; I’m not sure if I’d say it looks better than Majora’s Mask so I’d say the game at least deserves a 9 out of 10 for these reasons.


Sound: 7 out of 10

I find it severely disappointing that Conker’s Bad Fur Day really has itself lacking in the sound department with only 4 or 5 songs that play through-out the game which make me wonder if Rareware & Nintendo could’ve put a little more effort into the music in this game. Of course I know there’s one thing that no one will forget about this game; yep you know what’s coming...the sweet corn melody sung by our favorite boss the great mighty poo. I kind of wonder what they were doing when they worked on this boss. Most of the themes that you hear though will most likely entertain you for a while, so you can’t discredit the music completely so I’d say a 7 out of 10 rating is what I’m giving the sound.


Addictiveness: 7 out of 10

Now we’re getting into the crux of the matter, as this is the point where you’ll either dislike this game or still find it entertaining to a certain extent. Why will you dislike this game well that’s due to certain problems with the difficulty level in this game to which I shall go into greater detail when we discuss that part of this review. Now let’s move onto the main points of why you’ll find this game interesting and fun to play, one and foremost being the writing for this game with lines such as “oh great a bloody squirrel, you’re one of those special cases” or even “Bloody undead...Unbloody Dead...I mean that’s even worse than bloody CATS! Undead! What’s bloody point!” How was the part I just mentioned funny? Well the person that says it is the grim reaper who is basically dead and he’s calling it pointless, I don’t know maybe I just have a strange sense of humor.  The story and gameplay will certainly leave you entertained even with some of the faults that it has so I’d give the addictiveness a 7 out of 10


Story: 9 out of 10

There comes a time where some of us in our life experience a certain pleasure, a pleasure that is made when reaching the age of 21. For some it’s new-found knowledge, or a state of security and awareness, and finally for others it’s the insatiable lust for a certain alcoholic beverage celebration.  A red-squirrel well known in the video game world celebrates his 21st birthday at a local pub, not bothering to worry about his plans with his girlfriend Berry and instead is planning on downing shots till he flops. Once he’s wasted enough he decides it’s time to quit and go back home having many problems with sight as you can see him stumbling around outside, however; on his return trip he ends up entering a strange forest like area with alternating paths. At the same time the king of this land *I know this is silly but it’s true* is shown a plan on how to balance his table (which has a broken leg stand) so his milk won't fall over and the plan is to use a red squirrel, hmm I wonder what squirrel that could be? Along his adventures in this game you’ll imitate famous scenes known through-out movie history such as: The Matrix, Godfather, and some others. It’s a really strange and I wonder when making this game if the people were in the same condition as Conker, although it is pretty funny at times which will probably lead you to completing the entire game so I’d say Conker gets a 9 out of 10 for this story...very close to a 10 out of 10 but not quite there because of well like I said how strange the story is.


Depth: 10 out of 10

If you’re looking  a game that will be long and keep you entertained at the same time then you’ve certainly just picked up the right cartridge...err...I mean game. Since you’ll be able to progress through I believe 8 main chapters in which you’ll travel through battlefields of deadly enemies, to decapitating heads of zombie squirrels, and inside a mountain of...well there’s no other way to put it...a mountain of crap, plus many other areas which does give this game a lot of not only depth but replay ability as well. You may think that’s all I have to note for depth correct? Well sorry but no dice, as there are a few secrets or easter eggs (whatever you prefer to call them) that you can find inside this game so let’s get those out of the way first, Alright the easter egg I will start out with is one that most people know about and that’s the Banjo & Kazooie cameo which can be found on the file screens and if you scroll to the chapter selection and press A look at what is inside the door...what you don’t see it? Fine...I’ll tell you it’s an umbrella made from Kazooie and if you keep scrolling back and forth between the options menu you should see Banjo’s head perched above the fireplace like a deer head in an office. Second is the flaming butterflies, you’re probably thinking “What? I don’t remember seeing any butterflies on fire?” Very astute you are but have you ever stood by the nice/nasty sign where there are butterflies for a while.  If not then stand there for a few minutes and sooner or later Conker will pull out a flamethrower and catch the butterflies on fire. Lastly this is really just code that you can use to make the game easier on yourself and believe it or not the code is this: Very Easy....basically it makes it so you take less damage when you fall for example, say for instance you fell down 4 feet in normal game play you’d probably lose 1 chunk of chocolate (life) however; if you have this code on you won’t lose any life from that height however extremely high falls will still most likely kill you so you’re not invincible remember that! Ok now I’m about finished with this section so the depth earns a perfect 10 out of 10 in my opinion.


Difficulty: 9 out of 10

As much as I love this game I must say the difficulty can be outrageous at certain times and will usually cause frustration and your sanity to reach a new low. I know you saw what I wrote about the fall damage in this game as it is ridiculous so it’s best to get used to the controls before you go into later chapters as near the final chapters you’ll need fast reflexes in order to get past certain parts along with the fact that you mustn't’t fall down at any cost as it could just result in a quick death or close to it (1-2 pieces of life remaining). So besides fall damage what other problems are there? Well the aiming accuracy isn’t the best inside this game either, where you know that you hit the enemy but in reality they didn’t get injured or die...now I know most games on the N64 don’t have the best controls when it comes to aiming and shooting but this game had worse problems with it than most other games. Of course I do realize that the Xbox remake had better controls due to having dual analog sticks however that port was in many people’s eyes inferior to the N64 version mainly due to the fact that they censored so much more than the original game. We’re getting off-topic here though so let’s finish this up with my score for difficulty which I would have to say sadly is a 9 out of 10.


Well...now you know this squirrel’s tale along with what adventures he had embark on. My people always ask me to continue writing on with this story, but I don’t really want that I just wanna put the bookmark at back of this story. To finish this off I’ll leave you with some words that I agree with by heart... “This review always looks greener from the other side of the monitor, and you really don’t know how great it is until it’s finished....completed.... *looks at viewers* until it’s gone...!
