Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Gamespot says "A must play" I say "Piece of crap"
I would like you to know that gamespot didn't actually say that. And this is the first star fox game I have played. Now that that's straightened out, this game isn't very good. The only thing that saves it from 1 star is graphics and weapons. That is the only "good" thing in this hunk o' junk. The controls take too long to get used to, the missions were to weird(not "unique", weird), and the enemies leave nothing to the imagination. And the HUD is also weird. And if the next person who reveiws also includes a "counter-review" of mine, saying that I have to high standards or no taste, I'll say "My standards arn't high and I have plenty of taste. This game just sucks!"



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Bad Game
This game is only good for the space missions. On the ground the enemies get killed in two hits and some can only be killed if you fully charge your gun. The tank is hard to use and not all that great. Plus the amount of missions (ten) allows you to beat it in about 2 days. I would probably say only play this game if you are a big Star Fox fan. If not, then buy something else.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great Game
My fiance greatly appreciates this game...he has almost beat all of the missions already! Thanks!



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Enjoyable but short
This game is very fun. It has plenty of on-ground action on foot and with the Landmaster, but Arwing action is slightly limited which may disapoint oldie hardcore fans. Learning the controls is pretty easy. It has beautiful graphics and smooth animation.. The characters all have pretty vivid personalities (especially Slippy, hes so cute) except for Fox for a reason I'll mention later. The voice actors are pretty good. Falco sounds like he's a ganster, which is pretty appopriate, and although Krystal's British accent is pretty weird at first it grows on you. They were all pretty top-notch except for Fox himself. The voice acting for Fox pales in comparison to his lively, personality-filled, younger sounding voice in Adventures and often fails to convay any emotion (otherwise it would be pretty good). The missions themselves are pretty fun, especially the on foot missions for fans of Adventures, but the downside is that there are only 10, and they're kind of short. About ten more would have made it a more fulfilling game. On that note, unless you have friends to play multiplayer with, or you get a serious deal on this game, I would only rent it because most likely, especially if you are a veteran fan, you'll finish this the day you buy it and the ending isn't very fulfilling (I haven't beat the last mission yet but I have seen the ending). Being that this game is short, the plot is also rushed and there is not much development of the story, although it had good potential. Star Fox Assault is pretty child-friendly, despite the teen rating. The scene of Pigma being possesed by the Aparoids and his boss-form may scare some younger kids, but from what else I remember its pretty mild except for of course normal shooting violence. There's no blood however, and the enemies do dissapear after you kill them. In short I would reccommend giving this game a rent because the few hours you play it are very enjoyable.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - A good return for the fox.
Good: Fun gameplay ; Great voice acting ; Ability to repeat your missions in different difficulties to beat your score ; Good variety of land and air missions ; Up to 4 players in a multiplay battles ; Unlockable goodies.

Bad: A short game of only 10 missions ; multiplayer won't last that long.
