User Rating: 7.7 | Conker: Live & Reloaded XBOX
Forget the Single player mode of Conker: Live and Reloaded. It is a mere bonus that distracts you from where the real fun is-the multiplayer. The multiplayer is one of the best experiences you can have over Xbox Live. Seriously. Conker's multiplayer is what you would call BRILLIANT! It is class-based, meaning that you will have some training to do to decide which is the right class for you. I personally go for the Sneeker-sword-wielding little things that can go invisible and destroy the enemy within seconds. There truly is a class for everyone. For the gung-ho types, the Grunt. The first to head into battle and usually get most of the action. For the crazy-the Thermophile. Carrying a flamethrower, they light up the batlefield and can really get to your fur. For the cowardly-the Sniper. These are possibly the most skilled class. You can upgrade them to a 3x zoom aswell, just for extra damage. For those who don't like the land too much-the Sky Jockey. The only class that can fly the air mobile units on offer. And, last and probably least, the Demolishers. On paper some would say that these have the biggest advantage on the field. They carry the most badass weapon (the rocket launcher) and seem virtually unstoppable. But this is the opposite. Sneekers or Snipers can EASILY take down Demolishers-the veteran players will never use them. Sure, they can give you cheap kills, but they aren't too much trouble. The noobs will probably use them straight away (i know i did), but then again they won't know what to do with them and will probably spend the next 10 minutes blowing up their own teammates and trying to figure out what the objectives are for the missions. That leads me to another thing-the objectives. Possibly the most annoying thing in the multiplayer. There is only one objective per map. And considering there's only 8 maps this is a problem. Sure, there is an option to play deathmatch style but this is a huge problem when it comes to multiplayer. I was waiting for the content download to come, but it never. This has left me very disappointed and has now ruined my online experience. There is only so many times you can play capture the flag on Fortress Deux, and there is only so many times you can storm the enemy base in Beach Dead. I played this online for many months obsessively, and now I have won every battle there is to be won, killed every class there is to be killed and shot every squirrel there is to be shot, this has now gone back on my shelf, and Halo 2 put back in my disk tray...
