trust me when say keep playing the game. Its one of those games that start off slow, but it will get more fun. I just recently played this game last summer on the original xbox and it never fails to make me laugh!

I liked it the first time that I played it. I laughed. It's freekin' funny. However, i find it to be a difficult game to play at times. Sometimes it can be annoying but i like it. Keep playing. You may end up liking it too.

Yeah, I played a bit more and started to like it more. It is not as good as Banjo-Kazzoie, some design aspects are flawed, like lack of flash time after and injury, I hit hit 3 times in a row from one of thous big boxes you have to get past, because it crushed me, I was flat and could not move and it came back down and hit me again, and again. And not having the ability to skip test is annoying, when its Conker slowly telling you how to jump or dive.
I do like how not straight forward it is, stuff like the battle of the big hay stack or the pitchfork. It's not just hit him, you have to get him wet and push a button, or have him destroy the hay stacks.

ja, i knew that there was something very annoying about it but i couldn't remember. Overall, i like the game but it is difficult at times and has several glitches. It's funny but a bit perverted. The sunflower bouncing breasts is both funny and perverted.
interesting game. You know the designers had a few beers before thinking about this one. LOL.
I also like Banjo-Kazooie and -Tooie. Very good games. Some of my favorites. I miss Rare. Rare made good games.
DK64, Conker's BFD, Banjo Kazooie/Tooie, Shadows of the Empire, Beetle Adventure Racing and Jet Force Gemini are my favorite N64 games.

Stubbs the Zombie on original Xbox is another good one that's a little off the beaten path. I really like the 50s theme and bloody humor in this game. Uses the Halo 2 engine so controls similarly but in 3rd person view.

Didn't realize Stubbs was somewhat rare! I picked up a copy for $2 about a year ago. Good investment!

But it just doesn't feel right for me to tear open the game and pop its seal, not yet. I think that some day it should be opened. We'll see.

You could always buy a loose or opened copy to play - shouldn't run you more than $10. Although I don't specifically collect sealed games, I have a few, and unopened games look good in a collection. I recently bough a sealed NHL 2K2 for Dreamcast for $2. It's by no means rare or uncommon, but it's the last Dreamcast game to be released (at least in the U.S.), so I consider it a collectors item in it's sealed state.
