Two: while they're usually slow, they'll pick up the pace upon noticing you, either by being close enough or by missing a shot, which may sometimes not give you enough time to properly take aim before they come for your brains. Three: speaking of shooting, they only go if you <s>shoot them in the head</s> ''split their heads open'' with your [[Evil Dead|boomstick]]. Shooting anywhere else causes gradual dismembering, and you may blow a kinda head-sized hole through their torsos. And the bastards still keep huddling towards you. Add to that the setting they're placed on, and there you have it. |

- Goddamn Bats: In various levels. You even get turned into a Goddamn Bat.
- Hilarious in Hindsight: The Nintendo 64 was often criticized as a "kiddy console" with Conker's Bad Fur Day being the exception that proved the rule.

Cue Executive Meddling, and the game being ominously re-titled Conker: Live & Reloaded. The final product was an even more censored version of the N64 original. Some fans certainly enjoyed the irony.

As for what it kept intact, the main story had no new content added beyond its updated visuals.
