 Conker: Live & Reloaded Review for Xbox - Gaming Age
Conker: Bad Fur Day was a very unique game for the N64 in that it played on tested conventions of platform games but added a shooting element and delivery suited less to children and more to adults - adults with juvenile taste in humor, but adults just the same.
Conker, a cute little orange squirrel, had a few too many drinks while out with the boys last night.

Though Conker's Bad Fur Day did what was considered a masterful job of combining two seemingly incompatible genres back in the day, in 2005, Conker feels like a game with some serious pacing issues.
But if you never played Bad Fur Day, this version of Conker is probably the one to play, if only because the few changes that were made and the few bits that were cut weren't anywhere near the best parts of the game, so you won't be missing any of the good stuff.
In order for Conker to work as a comedic game, the voice acting would have to be at least pretty good, and it most definitely is. Of course, this is pretty much the exact same dialogue from the original game, so if you played the original, you'd already know that.

Conker's Quest, an early Nintendo 64 title featuring a vibrantly animated red squirrel, was put on hiatus a few years ago, resurfacing in April 2000 as Conker's Bad Fur Day.
Conker has some of the finest graphics on the system, and the polygon count on Conker's head is high enough to give him a wide range of appealing facial expressions.
I certainly wouldn't see anything wrong with a 15- or 16-year-old playing Conker, but in the end that is a decision best left to parents.

 Conker's Bad Fur Day Game Designer Interview @ Playcenter.com - Nintendo 64
The original games that Conker has appeared in were never even considered as potential source material, and I think the best way to view Conker with respect to his earlier incarnations is that, like people, he's changed and matured--or become more cynical--with age.
I think it's true to say that had Nintendo been pitched the Conker's concept a year earlier, they'd have shown it the door--and as it was their jaws still hit the floor.
Conker's derives its inspiration more from TV and films than anything else, but, obviously, there will be things in there--particularly specific game mechanics--that owe a debt to the many and varied game genres.

This Microsoft Xbox title is rated "Mature" (for players age 17 and older), and the descriptive warning on the back of the box says it all: blood and gore, mature humor, intense violence, sexual themes, strong language, use of drugs and alcohol.

"Conker" needs a laugh track, if only to fill the dead spaces where you can all but hear the writers congratulating themselves on their wit.
