Conker to be Censored on Xbox

**Shin Johnpv** · 19 Apr 2005, 05:04 PM

Conker: Live & Reloaded is an utterly foul game. There's an unending stream of curse words from Conker and those he meets, though all of these are bleeped. Originally Microsoft had called the remade game, Conker: Live & Uncut, but wisely changed the name because this is not in any way an uncensored version of Bad Fur Day. In fact, the N64 version actually had some un-bleeped swearing. Sure, the F-bomb was always censored, but every now and then a s--- would get through, which made things even funnier. Here, Microsoft has upped the bleeps as almost nothing makes it through safely, not ever "twat," which I didn't even know was considered a curse word by even the most modest of people.

I think this is pretty lame, IMHO, not only is it censored but they've taken out gameplay elements most noticeably when your swimming and you have to have the eel follow you through rings

i always thought that remakes should add content not take it away

I do find it ironic that a game that was on a Nintendo system is less censored than the adult oriented mature fest that is the Xbox

Lame.

Incredibly lame, but I do love the irony. I wouldn't have a problem with it if was just an option.

Maybe an uncut version will come from this?

I could care less. The beeps may well be amusing. I can live without hearing the words "fuck" and "shit" all day. After the second time it's not amusing.

Yeah, but 'beeps' are annoying from the get-go.

Is that supposed to be a joke? You do realize the meat of the game is the multiplayer right?

But yeah, I'm no fan of censorship, if that is in fact what this is...
