Conker's graphics are rather clever in design, making them very convincing in the process. That said, I rarely died, especially on the XBOX version, so I have no idea the loading could be that annoying
Conker really does look as good as Kameo for the most part, aside from not being widescreen. Load times didn't seem too bad, but I'm playing it on 360 BC so I dunno, I do know that I love the games story, voices and everything, but the gameplay itself really isn't that great. Conker is kind of slow and stuff.
I preferred the n64 controls to be honest, although shooting was made easy with the dual sticks. Multi on the XBOX sucked.
