I love Rare and I love Star Fox. While this is not the brightest moment for either of them, SFA does make for a rather interesting game. The difficulty is right on, never challenging me to the point where it felt like a chore to go on. Certain spirit challenges tested my skills as a gamer, but in a way that made me want to try again, even when I failed.

When I play this game, I just like to avoid combat altogether. Fighting with the staff is not poorly conceived, so why do I do it? Maybe because I can. Only the occasional boss cannot be outrun. The puzzles and exploration are truthfully the meat and potatoes of this title. And contrary to popoular opinion, I actually enjoyed the flight sequences and thought that they were well done.

So why the four? Simply because of this: once you finish the game, there is absolutely no reason to touch it again. Side quests can be completed in a under an hour. Never before have I witnessed a game that was so hard to return to after a fun initial fling. Oh well, it was fun while it lasted.

Awesome

This game is an absolute must get, no matter what. This game is really good especially for the fact that Fox is on land with an enchanted staff and not behind his Arwing. The amazing places you get to visit are just beyond words. Especially good are the graphics.WOW! you must get this game. I can't say much because its secrets are for you to find out.

best game ever

I've enjoyed many a Rare game over the years. While this game is enjoyable, it feels like Rare is on autopilot. Great controls, great graphics, fun premise, but not a game I will look back and recall too fondly. This game was meant to be a Nintendo 64 game and perhaps that's the problem. It feels just like all their other 64 titles: DK and Banjo-Tooie in particular. These platformers were a lot of fun to play then but now I feel they need to raise the bar the way Insomniac did with Ratchet and Clank and Naughty Dog did with Jak and Daxter or anything Nintendo does. Maybe the change of scene over at Microsoft will help them reignite the creativity that many have copied (including themselves now) but few have duplicated.

Graphics: 5/5
This game has graphics that are not comparable with any other game. Period.

Fun Factor: 4/5
This game has challenging puzzles and battles. The downside that lost the point would be that sometimes, it would get a little too challenging and force you you throw your controller against the wall. For those who want to buy this game: beware the Test of Strength! It's nearly impossible without a turbo controller.

Replay Value: 1/5
This is the weakest point of the game. The game seems to keep you in a steady flow of the storyline, not allowing you to explore very much. It gets reeeeeeally boring at times.

Great Game

I purchased this game used for $8.00 and have been playing it steady ever since. The story is cool the graphics are awesome and the difficulty is there. I think this is one of my best games yet....

Extremely addictive

Once you start this game you can't stop! It starts off easy but every level is harder and harder. It has a great mix of combat, adventure, and strategy. The only downer is once you finish the game it becomes useless but the pleasure i had before i beat the game was big so I advise you all to buy this game!

Good, but a little slow

It's good and all but when you're fighting SharpClaws you can only use 2 buttons. Also, the game is a little strange. You help all these dinosaurs get freed from the SharpClaws inprisonment. Plus, Prince Tricky (Fox Mclouds' new sidekick) can get really annoying. Saying "wait up" when he's right next to you he's a haunt. I would not recommend this game to first time gamers.

I love STAR FOX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Star fox is the best game ever. The thing that's sad is that Falco left. The game is about Fox saving this planet called Dinosaur planet, a bad guy ( yeah a bad guy) took all four spellstones and caused the planed to tear apart. Fox has to save the planet by getting all four spellstones, but that is not all he has too get all six Krazoa spirits. Along in his journey you will find a staff that Krystal dropped at the beginning of the game it has all sorts of power( a fire blaster, ground quake well you will know) and you will find a little dinosaur called Tricky he is very helpfull and funny. Tricky will get you though all sorts of tight spots, like ice blocking a doorway and digging of all sorts. If he gets lost you can tell him to come back by using his heel command. You will also be helping a lot of dinosaurs who are friendly ( and they all seem to have an Irish accent). Fox also has cool martial arts moves and racing games. Also Andross has RETURNED! He used all the Krazoa spirits to rivive himself and when you fight him Falco he will I don't want to spoil it because I beat it. The graphics are great and the gamplay are great, the stories are funny. I recommend you buy my dude Star fox today because it is out now.
