Hidi Posted August 7, 2012 Report Share Posted August 7, 2012 That's no problem, when I intend to beat the game I do it in 1 time without quitting. It's not a long game. Wel the multiplayer is kinda lame on the 3ds version. The CPU is too hard and there isn't a lot of variety on it. Precisely why it's not a long game; you couldn't save, so the game couldn't be long or people would complain about it length. As for multiplayer, well, it's always been like that with Star Fox. The only real concept is the ability to shoot people in an Arwing or Landmaster (if you've unlocked it). There is multiplayer on the original, but like its remake, it's not great, and it's better to pull out a game like Super Smash Bros. if you want to play with friends. I'm pretty sure there are more multiplayer features and stuff on the 3DS, but you must unlock them by earning achievements in the game (Earning medals, beating the game with both endings...There are two). Multiplayer in Assault wasn't great either if that helps to . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WOLFjr Posted August 9, 2012 Report Share Posted August 9, 2012 It's not that hard finding the original starfox. Just go to eBay, type in 'star fox super Nintendo', and presto. I'll also just throw my opinion out here. Between Starfox 64 and it's 3DS version, I prefer regular Starfox 64. Mainly for one simple reason.

Millionbartek Posted August 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 I received adventurs yesterday and I love it. It's amazing and has beautiful graphics and nice voice acting. I like the gameplay alot and it's adictively fun! I just could not stop playing yesterday. I am glad that Rare's last Nintendo console game was awesome. I don't understand all the hate it get's. If they made a 12 hour long game with arwing missions only, I would be bored after an hour or 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they made a 12 hour long game with arwing missions only, I would be bored after an hour or 2. I picked up a copy of Adventures from the game store a while ago and loved the look of it. I never could figure out how things got so bad in general 10 years later (I mean seriously...we are being sold Mario and Sonic Olympics 2012 for $45...wtf?). I agree that the graphics were pretty stellar and to me they still stand up pretty well to games now. I had forgotten how to play a decent adventure/puzzle type game and unfortunately found myself having to look at a guide once in a while because I was frustrated with my lack of progress....Fortunately its been a few months since I last played it and I for the most part have forgotten much of the game and its about time to start all over! I think the game gets the hate that it does because it really started unraveling the cohesiveness of Star Fox as a whole, but I think also because it created the Krystal pseudo-furry-fandom that put a rift in the fan base. Plot holes everywhere, introduction of a character with no real 'character' to her, the shift from Arwing flying to on-foot missions, etc. I personally found the game to be pretty enjoyable and was happy to find some of the same Banjo Kazooie wit and humor used in Star Fox Adventures. I was also happy that the game felt like it had some length to it and not able to be beaten during one's lunch hour like SF64, Assault, or Command.

Thanks for the comment, btw is Assault as good (or as long) as adventures? it's pretty expensive on ebay and I can't find it anywhere. About plotholes in the game btw. I think they would have been explained if Rare wasn't sold. Rare could make Assault and it could have been better. I saw on Nintendo of Benelux site that starfox assault was being developed by Rare, pretty weird. Probably a mistake? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShutUpNavi Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 Yeah I think that’s a mistake. As for Assault I like it, but it’s the shortest game in the series at only 10 levels. Ground missions are good (that is if you change the default controls) but take up too much of the game. As few as they are though the arwing/space missions are great though and play just like SF64. SFAs’s Multiplayer is the best in the series. If you don’t care about multiplayer or replaying the game I’d say rent it if you possibly can, as it can be beat in only a few days.

I honestly didn't find Assault to be as enjoyable as Adventures, but I am also a fan of games that take a long time to finish and have a lot of little hidden things in it that of actual significant. I completely agree, if Adventures stayed Dinosaur Planet it probably would have been a more solid game. I thought Rare never had their hand in on the Assault game, it was shipped over to Namco from the get go. I would almost worry about the end result of a Star Fox game like Assault had Rare handled it. They make great games and all, but the type of game Assault was doesn't seem up Rare's alley. I would go ahead and purchase Assault if you can find a decent deal on it. I mean if nothing else it is a piece of gaming history (and that to me is part of the fun of simply buying the game, owning that piece of history to look back on in the future).

People say controls suck and it's short, I am interested in it but I can't rent it anywhere. There are no places to rent games in Belgium... Looks like I am going to have to shell out 35 euro for a german version.... But If I don't like the game I won't be able to sell it easely. Hmm maybe you have some suggestions?

sroberson Posted August 17, 2012 Report Share Posted August 17, 2012 Heh, I guess I will wave the American flag and count myself lucky on this one...My copy of Assault set me back $12 - or about 9 euro. I am just about crazy enough to consider buying a copy and sending it your way just for the lulz. The controls were pretty rough for the foot parts, but one of the settings makes it better imo. It was short, I mean maybe a couple hours or so to just roll through the game. There wasn't much of a challenge or urgency in getting as high of a score as possible like in SF64 either so the playback just isn't there for me. Multiplayer always looked fun to me though.

Hidi Posted August 21, 2012 Report Share Posted August 21, 2012 Glad you like Adventures. What people didn't like about Adventures mainly was its plot; it doesn't work well as it was meant for a different game. The gameplay however, is amazing.

Isn't it the primary medals in the game that count? I picked up the game recently too, but nice job on getting a gold on Bolse (I never have the patience to wait that long there). You're not specific on which levels you need help on, so I'm not sure if I can help you. Main tip is to get as many hit combos as you can and just shoot stuff (Or Bomb it if you've got bombs to spare). Hey I received Assault today. It's a good game, but short.
