This mainly exists because I'm an idiot, not because I wanted to start one.

However, it is coming out soon and I'm extremely interested in it.

My opening comment: Falco is too metrosexual.

Krystal is hot.

<Insert requisite followup comment concerning Krystal's tail>

If they polish the ground missions extensively, who knows, this game could actually be pretty good.

it sounds to be a fun experience, and the N64 multiplayer was a blast
if it gets decent ratings im buying it

The on foot stages look too much like jet foce gemini
everything else looks wicked, esp the ammount of ships on screen while in the space stages
its insane

RETURN OF STAR WOLF! I absolutely love Starfox, and I'm positive that this game won't be any different...The only thing I wish for right now is that they've included a lot of multi stages...

MaleficentOgre · « **Reply #6 on:** January 27, 2005, 03:59:41 AM »

as long as the on foot levels turn out better than the ones in SWRSIIIRS I'll be good.

TMW · « **Reply #7 on:** January 27, 2005, 04:45:37 AM »

Yeah...when I saw the art for Falco, my first thought was "They turned Falco into a bishounen?"

I guess it's to offset the exxxtreme Kyrstal joining the ranks.

Yeah...I'm hoping the ground missions are decent...but even if they aren't, the Classic(tm) Starfox action will be worth suffering through them, at the least.

That, and it'll be nice to give Falco a missile facial...other than on SSBM, that is...

Caterkiller · « **Reply #8 on:** January 27, 2005, 06:46:10 AM »

Most likely im going to buy this game no matter what(funny, I said the same thing about SFA) because of the insane amount of fun I use to have with Star Fox 64's multiplayer and main game. The only thing im worried about is the ground missions, and the amount of on rail stages. But does anyone know if the game is 4 player co-op through out the main game?

Hostile Creation · « **Reply #9 on:** January 27, 2005, 07:02:05 AM »

I'm not sure about co-op. I was under the impression that it was two player co-op, but I'm not sure at all.

odifiend · « **Reply #10 on:** January 27, 2005, 07:09:42 AM »

Co-op? I hadn't even heard about that! I'm off the fence now, I'll be picking this up.

TMW · « **Reply #11 on:** January 27, 2005, 07:12:39 AM »

I had heard about the co-op as well.

That wasn't the reason I was getting the game, but it'll be a nice addition.

Ian Sane · « **Reply #12 on:** January 27, 2005, 08:02:03 AM »

My biggest fear for this game is that it ends up like Rebel Strike in that the flying missions are absolutely amazing but the game as a whole is really hurt by poorly made ground missions. It would rather have a cookie cutter Star Fox game that plays amazingly than one that tries to change things up but fails in doing so.

If it turns like Rebel Strike did I'll still buy it but I'll probably wait and get it cheap. Rebel Strike was worth owning but not worth $70 CAN.

The co-op however could really make the game if pulled off well. Sorry to compare to Rebel Strike again but the co-op Rogue Leader missions were one of the parts that that game just NAILED. If they can get the co-op in Star Fox to be anything like that this game is just going to rule.

If the flying missions are outstanding and the walking missions are mediocre, how is leaving the walking missions out better? Either way you still get the outstanding part...and some people may enjoy the walking missions.

vudu · « **Reply #14 on:** January 27, 2005, 09:06:22 AM »

Pale - If you can't get to the next outstanding flying mission without playing a mediocre ground mission first the overall game is hurt.

Ian Sane · « **Reply #15 on:** January 27, 2005, 09:08:29 AM »

"If the flying missions are outstanding and the walking missions are mediocre, how is leaving the walking missions out better?"

Since this is a linear game you have to play all the walking missions to get to all the flying missions. So thus half of the time you're not having fun. In Rebel Strike it was HELL to beat some of the walking missions to get to later flying missions. I spent a fair bit of time with that game bored and frustrated. In game design quantity is not better than quality. This isn't like a CD where you can skip filler songs. If something is really bad you don't want it in there at all.

Needs more submarine.

Also, Bill needs to make a comeback, because he was WAY rad. Also, that funky cat girl that only showed up in that one level could make a cameo, but she is < Bill

joshnickerson · « **Reply #17 on:** January 27, 2005, 10:24:40 AM »

Apparently you can rent the game early at Blockbuster and Hollywood Video starting Feb 1st.

odifiend · « **Reply #18 on:** January 27, 2005, 10:26:32 AM »

heh. I actually didn't enjoy that Sub mission. I think it had to do with not being able to charge my lasers.

Hostile Creation · « **Reply #19 on:** January 27, 2005, 10:28:56 AM »

I'm not sure, but the walking missions (whether they're good or not) do not seem like they're going to be a large part of the game. They showed it in multiplayer, but I haven't seen a big presence in the main game, from the videos I've watched. I think they wanted to stress that it did have walking, particularly in multiplayer, and people felt as if the game automatically did as well.
As I said, I really don't know, but I don't see this having that many walking missions. I can also see missions that will be part walking (Arwing goes down, find the Landmaster, something like that).

odifiend · « **Reply #20 on:** January 27, 2005, 10:41:38 AM »

Walking was ridiculous in Starfox 64. It was pretty fun, since this multiplayer has versatility (jump into crafts), I think this will be pretty awesome- from a multiplayer standpoint anyway.

Hemmorrhoid · « **Reply #21 on:** January 27, 2005, 11:52:10 PM »

oh yeah if they make this one right im buying 2 more controllers

couchmonkey · « **Reply #22 on:** January 28, 2005, 04:42:25 AM »

CO-OP, eh? Well, that makes me think a bit more...
I hope Nintendo can manage to release the Revolution early next year, because this looks like a great year to cap off the GameCube's lifespan. The Super NES and N64 both had that really icky final year where there were about three games worth playing all year, and everyone was basically just waiting for the new system. Well, everyone whose really into games, anyway.

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #23 on:** January 28, 2005, 04:44:45 AM »

Well we've yet to see what surprises Ninty has in store for the rest of the GC's lifespan, so don't write off the last year as weak just yet...
