Christ, it really took me five months to make another of these?

Welcome back to Remake or Rebreak at last. The next videos on the review channel will also be ROR episodes, and the next one should be (but likely won't be) a simpler episode to produce.

Remake or Rebreak is a segment where I examine the classics of the past and compare them with subsequent significant rereleases to see whether they hold up today, with a special emphasis on whether and how well those releleases improve upon the original experience.
Today, we're looking at Conker's Bad Fur Day and Conker Live and Reloaded on the Xbox. Based on the beloved classic on N64, the Xbox remake has been largely panned by the gaming community. As always, I offer an in-depth examination of both versions to arrive at an answer.

Also, yes, I do briefly discuss the version of Conker's Bad Fur Day featured in Rare Replay. There's not nearly as much to say about that one.

Remake or Rebreak Scores:
1- Rebreak: Fails to resurrect the same quality standard as the original due to incompetent design, technical failures, etc. A virtually worthless remake/port overall.
2- Re-Meh: Not as good as the original, but a relatively competent recreation that is still very playable. Additionally, a Re-Meh may not address the original's salient issues or fail to add anything meaningful.
3- Remake: As good or even slightly better than the original, but not necessarily worth playing if you already own that version. Typically adds some new content or fixes salient issues with the original.
4- Replace: A remake/port that changes, fixes, and adds so much that it renders the original virtually obsolete. A Replace not only faithfully recreates the original, but fixes most (if not all) of the original's issues and adds a sizable amount of new content.
