A game that's difficult to play when you have carpal tunnel! I really enjoyed it. Short, sweet, and full of impressive mechanical design.

One of my favorite games growing up. One of my favorite games to play with my Dad as a kid and all around a great game that had so much more potential. Never completed it as a kid and going for the gold medals is not really fun.

I did not like this one as much as the n64 one. Even though when I was a kid, I thought it was cool that you could run around and blast aliens with gun.

Really solid Star Fox game with some fun multiplayer to boot


I want to love this game but it just doesn't hold a candle to 64. Still has some great moments and very fun battle mode.

Land missions really aren't bad, i mean they are wonky as hell but not really bad, I want to play as the cool characters on the ground, rest of the gameplay no one complains about

anyway its cool to see the universe actually progress and get a new antag and have the old one just be dead, old characters come back and fox and wolf have their rivals to lovers storyline, pigma gets a bigger antagonistic role which is nice since he is a personal antagonist to fox and peppy, so its cool to see things and not just do the same thing as the previous games, also new team star fox is cool.

Better then I remember it being, the true and only sequel to Star Fox 64, wonderful fast paced dog fighting space battles, the on ground missions are mostly fun even if a lil repetitive. The worst parts were probably hanging off of the sides of your crews ships to escape, and also man your entire team is a lil too reliant on Fox for help. But Star Fox Assault has held up as yet another underrated greatest hits GameCube banger.

Amazing multiplayer and really fun singleplayer gameplay, very quick.

I hate the singleplayer for this game, but I had to do it all to unlock levels for multiplayer. My mind corroded with every passing second. Hate.

This game is so fun and it still holds up. The on-foot and flying sections are awesome. The story is good by Star Fox standards -- I realize this is not a high bar -- and the enemies are genuinely unsettling. (That one part? You know that one part, with that one guy? Eughhgghghgh.) Sometimes the combat's a little annoying but hey, nobody's perfect. If you somehow missed this one you should give it a go.

I remember being kinda freaked out by the whole alien menace in this game. Parasites, right? Action felt tight. Multiplayer was a bit weak.

For a game I've heard almost no discussion about, I was surprised by how much I enjoyed it. The arwing sections feel fluid and fun, and the on foot sections are fast paced and exciting. These are somewhat let down by the janky landmaster controls and some annoying enemies, and some later missions ran on too long. But I still enjoyed these. Presentation is good, with sharp visuals (although character animation is noticeably weird.) The orchestrated soundtrack is excellent, and adds a lot of excitement to the main stages. The game did feel a BIT short, but it doesn't overstay it's welcome. It was a fun time.

The best Starfox game.
Starfox fans don't deserve good games.

This game deserves a second chance. It got done dirty despite having a more interesting threat, advance the gameplay and story and the music is legit makes the better each time I play it. Also Star Wolf theme is so perfect

Jesus, this game is fucking bleak. Like half the named characters in this universe die and by the end "they come back" but no they fucking died. I dig this game for being something different, both in story and gameplay. I wish there was a better balance of the two styles, but it's still pretty good.

WHAT THE FUCK WERE THEY THINKING WITH THE LAST 2 LEVELS

Les phases en vaisseau et les boss sont mythiques mais les phases au sol mieux vaut ne pas en parler.

Played on Silver difficulty.

Cool story, great music, great visuals, much better characterization than Adventures, but still a massive step behind the Nintendo 64 classic when it comes to Gameplay and Replayability, and the 4 different, wildly inconsistent types of gameplay styles makes playing this title effectively feel like more effort than it's worth. I can see this being great on mouse and keyboard, but unfortunately, you're stuck with the gamecube controller, making this title range from decent to frustratingly annoying.

I really want to rank this higher but it's just really bad lol.

When you get to pilot an Arwing the game is as good as Starfox 64. Every level were you are on foot just brings the game down so much.

the aparoids invasion was so scary but they were nothing against my unshakeable mental fortitude that gave me more dedication to defeat the on foot levels than parents have to raise their children

The best Starfox game. I can walk on the ground and fly. WHO THOUGHT OF THAT?!?!

Loved the campaign and multiplayer options!


Childhood game for me. Nearly flawless game in my eyes.

Peak Star Fox.

A galaxy-spanning adventure following a great, surprisingly dark storyline, with tons of continuity and some unique gameplay ideas that mostly succeed.

You get a mix on on rails Arwing segments, and mostly open-ended ground missions, where you're either on foot with weapons, or in a Landmaster or Arwing you can go to and from depending on what's most efficient for the mission you're on.

It's a treat, and is such a shame we never got a proper follow-up.
