"It wasn't what I expected. It was better!"
User Rating: 9.1 | Conker: Live & Reloaded XBOX
Conker: Live and Reloaded, was a game that seemed to be a sleeper at first. As I tracked it, I noticed this was going to be a really really good game. It wasn't what I expected. It was better! Graphics: 10/10. After realizing that the campaign mode was really an updated version of the older n64 copy, I came to appreciate the graphics alot more. The developers took the time to revise the graphics totally. Whether it be the fur on Conker, lighting, shadowing, bump mapping, even water dripping off of Conker after a swim. The graphics are truly amazing and make campaign and xbox-live alot better and a better experience for the player. The graphics will surprise you. Gameplay: 9/10. The gameplay in this game was terrific the only downside is that the campaign mode was frustrating, because it required you to think a little...ok alot. Though the missions were really funny and rewarding at the end. On xbox-live the gameplay feels like a real war is going on...in a squirrely sense. Though the realism in the game was frustrating, or maybe I've been playing too many unrealistic games. Anyway, the physics, weapons and whatnot are awesome in the game, despite the fact that you need to practice a bit before you are a worthy adversary on xbox-live. Sound: 10/10. The sound in the game is a blessing. The voices of characters in the campaign mode perfectly fit the characters. The scripts for the cutscenes and whatnot were well done and made the acting alot better. Though the voice I laughed at the most was, Greg the Grim Reaper. He's such a short character, and his voice resembles Foamy's from www.illwillpress.com . Though the weapon sounds, the war ambient is well done also. Also when they swear it bleeps it out which makes it even more humorous.The sound is probably the highlight of the game. Value: 8/10. Honestly, I never pay 50$ for a game and I don't feel that any game is worth 50$. So I suggest waiting for the price to drop, or for you to buy the game used. But if you're really anxious buy it now. In the end this game deserves a 9 out of 10. The game is terrific with very little problems and glitches. Single player will have you laughing all day and will leave memories for you to look back at. Xbox-live and split screen is terrific and a great way to play with your friends and have a great time. This is truly one of the best games on Xbox.
