Saw this at another site, and had to post it. I'm so looking forward to this game, shooter or not.
Alright, here’s the score. Conker: Live and Reloaded, is simply, amazing... the guys at Rare apparently worked long and hard to bring you this game, and it believe me, it sure did pay off! The Classic N64 game: Conker's Bad Fur Day, updated to Xbox standards with graphics and everything, and the best, the multiplayer, where 16 players can play online in bloody team battles!
Graphics: 10/10
Yep, a perfect 10. Everything, every little pixel, was detailed and had lots of thought put into it to make everything look its greatest. All of the characters are well animated, when you get hurt and blood flies on the camera, you would probably be tempted to wipe it off. I really don't know any possible way they could improve them, awesome job Rare!
Music: 10/10
Another 10. There’s a lot of classic N64 tunes digitally re mastered. When you hear them this way, you wont be able to stand hearing the N64 versions of them. There’s a few new tunes as well that are of course, amazing.
Sound: 10/10
Great voice acting, but a few voices seem a LITTLE off since their N64 days, but it doesn't matter. Great sound effects everywhere you go in the game!
Controls: 9.7/10
Wow, this doesn't get a 10. Still the controls are awesome, even with one flaw. For the Single Player, everything is straight forward, from jumping to moving, or shooting someone, EXCEPT, swimming. I'm sorry, swimming was a big pain in the ass, its just very hard to control. The underwater blenders is most likely the hardest part of the game, if you can pass that on your first go, I will envy you. Multiplayer is pretty straight forward too, Right trigger to shoot, Y to change weapon, X to change special move, and L to change what kind of ammo you use. Seems simple enough, unless your retarded!
Replay Value: 10/10
Well I don't think it would apply to the Single Player, you might want to replay it once or twice, even though its the same as the N64 version, except with a few cool things added here and there, but the online multiplayer, is nothing but addicting fun which you will want to take on new challengers over and over again.
Fun Factor: 9.8/10
This game is fun, no need for collecting (well except you might need to search for a few bucks in order to go further in the game, but it isn't out of control). Items are always there when you need it thanks to context sensitive, just push B on a B pad and you will be given what you need at that time! Nice! In addition, there’s many funny cut scenes, but of course they are M rated, so if you cant take bad words blood and sex then I'd advise you choose a different game, because you will see ALOT of M rated material here! There’s a few points in the game that are very easy and straight forward, and some that will have your teeth grinding into dust, but that shouldn't keep you from playing, I mean, you like challenges right? Multiplayer is 5 times funnier than Single player, blowing and killing everyone. Sounds like every other game in the market, but the multiplayer has a certain "Feel" that many games lack, I'm not sure what that is, but I know one thing for sure, you wont be disappointed.
Final Analysis: 10/10
Well this game has 2 or 3 flaws, and a couple a bugs, but if you forget about them, you got yourself a perfect game. Make sure to get X-box live because most of your source of fun will come from online! Now what are you waiting for, go buy the game right now and play!'

This seems to be somebody's review from playing the game at E3, and it was posted at a Rare fansite, so I imagine we should take this review w/ a grain of salt. I have no doubt it will score in the high 9's, and even get some 'perfect' scores from some reviewers, though.
And to think it comes out just a couple days after my birthday. I guess Rare DOES care.
