On: Xbox - OUT: March 2005
THE PITCH: "Notoriously naughty" squirrel Conker makes his ultra-cheeky debut on Xbox in an all-new Xbox Live friendly team-based shooter. Keeping its tongue firmly in its (butt) cheek, Conker Live and Reloaded aims to deliver frenzied action and gratuitous toilet humour by the bucketload.
KEY FEATURES
Two unique campaigns - Old World and Future War.
Campaign storylines, including a series of multiple missions.
Players can choose from six character classes, including Skyjockey, Long Ranger, Grunt, Demolisher, Thermophile, and Sneaker. Each character class has its own abilities, making team construction a tactical job.
Xbox Live support: team-based modes dominate, though standard deathmatches are also available.
Weapons include camera guided rockets and acid throwers, alongside more convential armarments. Vehicles include the Sky Steed, Mule Bomber, R-Hog, Toad Jeep and Tankus.
Conker's Bad Fur Day, our hero's previous single-player adventure has been ported to Xbox and is included for free.
THE BUZZ: Beyond the potentially lame japery there lurks a team-based shooter of real potential. And the inclusion of Conker's Bad Fur Day makes this an extremely tempting package.
