I bought this game shortly after it came out based on a preview I read in Electronic Gaming Monthly. Until that point I had dismissed the game as more of a gimmick, but after reading about the countless movie and pop-culture references and parodies I decided to give it a shot, and although it may still be a gimmick it is hands down one of the greatest Nintendo 64 games ever released.
The star here is the variety of gameplay. Every level has you doing something completely different, (and often, absolutely hysterical.) The boss fights are memorable, the puzzles are fun and challenging, and the sound and graphics are leagues ahead of most Nintendo 64 games. There's a very good amount of spoken dialogue, and the music is catchy too.
And, as Electronic Gaming Monthly predicted, the movie parodies are spot-on. They're hilarious, they're fun to play, and they fit with the game.
At this point if you're still entertaining the thought of purchasing an N64 game, and you're an adult, (although the humor is rather immature) I strongly reccomend looking into this game. It is a lot of fun.

This is one of the best N64 games I have EVER played. Despite the fact that it does have bad language and even worse situations, this game is VERY impressive. The graphics are excellent, the fact that it has full voice (something I wish donkey Kong had) This was proof to me that the N64 died way to young!
This is an adult game however and I would not recommend it for children
Awesome Game.I would really recommend it!

This is a really fun Game,even for kids.It is pretty tough,but after awhile it is simple.I love this Game,and i am glad i bought it...t is one of the best games ever.
I think even though it says it isnt for kids under the age of 17,They are just basically saying that.They THINK the 12 and 13 year old kids will get bad ideas from it.No,some kids arent that stupid.I am a kid,and i am allowed to play this game.My dad bought it for me,and he thinks it is funny!
Conker's Incredible.

What a great , great game- maybe overlooked a bit as it was released in the very twilight of the N64 days. The multiplayer aspect, which was already incredibly advanced on the N64, is going to fit in very well on the forthcoming Xbox version with Xbox Live. But it's the single player that always makes a game for me. The world that Conker inhabits is a bit like an 'adult' Alice in Wonderland, taking so many great twists and turns without ever seeming disjointed. There is a wonderful compactness to the game - there is never a sense that any space has been wasted- no interminable treks along featureless corridors- unlike Starfox Adventures, Rare's next console game.
Yet the game manages to provide a sense of scale typical of the greatest adventures- at one point you can look down at the great expanse below from the edge of a diving board.
This game was the last of a string of fine platformers on the N64 and my favourite- more so than the unforgiving Mario 64.
An integral part of the game is undoubtedly the humour- regional accents aplenty swearing like troopers long before Ozzy Osbourne made it fashionable. Talking to a Conker character is like putting the world to rights over a pint in the pub- it's very refreshing to see it in a videogame and very British. Some conservative reviewers have failed to grasp that the bawdiness is no shallow gimickry but an integral part of what is a very polished, well put together adventure game. The cutscenes (such as the famous Great Mighty Poo) add an infinite amount to the character of the game. The graphical design of the levels and characters is wonderful- a rich cartoon world has been created. Puking, swearing, busty maidens, beer, singing s***- it's a right rich stew of brilliance. And it is probably the best 'last game ever made for a console' ever. To be honest, it's up there with my favourite games ever.

As a person who plays video games an average of 50 hours a week I feel confident in saying that this is the best game of all time. Mario 64, Legend of Zelda Orcarina, and Metroid Prime are a few of my other favorite video games. But they don't match CBFD, I say this taking into account both the single gameplay and the multi-player mode.
The movie references make the game, the "Saving Private Ryan" level and the "The Matrix" level being my two favorite. The "mountain of Poo" level has one of the funiest cut scenes in any videogame I ever played.
The Multi-player has a bunch of different options with teddy bears vs brown squirrels. Weapons range from flame throwers to chainsaws to sniper rifles and of course my favorite the Katana sword. I can remeber playing the multi-player hour after hour. The only multi-player that I think comes close to matching CBFD is "Goldeneye".
A drug addicted alcohol guzzling scarecrow, foul talking money, and evil teddy bears are just part of the greatness of this game. If they ever make a sequel I hope it lives up to the greatness of this game.

This game is good. I'll just say it. Although I don't actually own it, and only played multiplayer(but have watched single). The graphics are, sound is, and humour is fantastic. You can...on people, you can get..., and the health is chocolate(weird, huh?) and the multiplayer is fantastic! You can play sudden death mode or capture the flag, or steeling bank money, or running the #$@* out of a room that will fill with gas, unless you are wearing a gas mask. Weapons include flame-throwers, crossbows, MP5's, thompson's, and if I'm not mistaken, chainsaws. So, if you still have one of these things, buy it, but it IS rated M!

The guy that rated this 1star obviously only watched the intro video. This game has a plot, Conker gets drunk loses his way, then ends up in a world unlike any other. He only wants to get home. Also the Panther King wants Conker brought to him so he can be used as a table leg. No Plot???? Untrue!!!!!!!!
A great game

Love the various movie paradys (Saving Private Ryan, The Matrix, Aliens, Dracula)
The multiplayer mode is what really makes this game shine

The Bad
The story has no real direction...if it wasnt for the mulitplayer mode, it probably wouldnt be as fun

I'll go ahead and agree with parents and all others who are concerned with this game, but just for a second. It contains extreme violence, strong language, alchohol use, and strong sexuual references. This is the "big thing" really said about this game, but it's really more than that. Through all the carnage, swearing, and drinking there is a really great storyline accompanied by wonderful gameplay that never gets old, not even in 2004. And I said the storyline was accompanied by gameplay, not the other way around, because this storyline goes so deep into the most random places, yet, when you think about it it all fits together. Towards the end of the game things begin to get a little more dramatic, focusing on war and crime, although they are displayed comicly, they still teach a lesson. Another great thing this game has going for it is all of the film parodies including The Terminator, Alien, The Exorcist, The Godfather, The Matrix, Saving Private Ryan, and some others. The most memorable would have to be "The Assault" that replicated D-Day from Saving Private Ryan, although fought with Squirls and evil Tedy Bears. The Matrix takes second place. Fighting weasel guards as a squirl. Putting past the story really lets the gameplay shine, which has the widest varity of any N64 game I've played. It ranges from hitting people or animals with a frying pan, driving a tank, riding a dinosaur, fighting large scale battles, and much more. The storyline takes you from bee hives, to farms, to war torn fortresses. The best thing is that it doesn't get old, ever. Once you beat the final level and see the ending cutscene you finally realize how great a game it was, and you'll want to play it again.
