I remember the day I got this game.

My mother bought it for me because it had "A cute squirrel on the cover" and thought it would be a good game.

She was right about the "good game" part. Thank you mother, for being ignorant. :)

The guys from Rare should make a game where Conker meets Banjo and they team up on one epic platformer bringing it all back with a bang.

I always... When I see the end... I start to cry... I dont know why... Dat ending is just... The best end in all games I've ever played.

I actually wished Rare was bought by Microsoft in 2012 instead of 2002

The first video game I've seen without a happy ending! I love how at the end Conker looks up at the player dissaprovingly and angrily. It's like he just wants to take all his anger out on the player...

Review's pretty good loving the series aswell. Good job, I appreciate the work you put into all these videos.
Thank you.

I don't care what others say. This was the biggest downer ending ever. I mean, it's dark. Conker gets EVERYTHING... except what he really wanted. What he wanted could have been his, but now it's gone forever. Gone... Gone.

this is one of my favourite games thanks so much for the info! i really hope they make another one eventually.

Conker's Bad Fur Day was literally one of the most memorial games I ever played as a kid. Back in the day the game was addicting, the story was amazing, and was highly controversial (especially considering it was on the Nintendo 64). The multiplayer game modes were some of the best I ever played, and my friends and I put MANY MANY hours into the multiplayer modes. I purchased and played the remake of the game on the Xbox, and it was just as good. This would be a series I would love to play on current gen consoles, I don't understand why more conker games were never made!

The ending of Bad Fur Day made me cry when I first played it in 2001.

The fucking Multiplayer was the best. I loved almost every mode. The Xbox version did a disservice to this.

Although I didn't learn anything I already didn't know about Conker's history, you did a very good and professional job at retrospecting and telling the story. The provided video clips also helped make this history telling more enjoyable.

I've watched a good portion of your "The History of" videos, and I'm most impressed with your performance in this one especially since this was your first. You have a lot more energy and passion in your voice in this one than later ones. Keep this energy. It makes learning about these games all the more enjoyable! :)

I loved your review, I still have my own Conker's Bad Fur Day, and I enjoy playing it like the first time I turned on my console.

I had a dream that the sequel was in development by the original team. It felt real to the point when I woke up, I thought it was real for

[ShinnyxAKAvincent]

This game was my best one from my childhood... Played it from the start to the end so many time! Local multiplayer was awesome too, all theses modes were so good when I had few friends coming to my house! Damn, so many memories there :) thanks for your video!

5:53- Is it just me, or does Conker's girlfriend look like Lola Bunny with Bugs Bunny's fur color?

Thanks for sharing this video. Admittedly, for the first in this series, it is pretty rough, but at the very least, it's heartfelt and informative, plus entertaining to watch. Keep up the good work.

I found conker live and reloaded at goodwill for $2. Best luck ever

[DRKWLF]

I'm glad you picked this game for your first retrospective~  It's an amazing game!  Good shows too, keep up the great work.
