Game's so underrated it physically hurts me.
The story is pretty sweet, the voice acting is good and it's overall pretty serious and dark which I appreciate, the only real issue I have is that they kinda backed out from a couple big decisions but it's still cool.
The gameplay is great too, the typical Star Fox gameplay is as good as it usually is but the on foot stuff is a good expansion of the gameplay, hunting down enemies in these big maps, and the best part is tha tmost of these stages allow you to hop on a Landmaster or Arwing whenever you want, which just allows for so much freedom. Also, orchestral music. In 2005. It's sick. The only issue is that it's really short, but for how focused the plot is I suppose that makes sense.
The best part of the game though is easily the multiplayer, which honestly is probably some of the best multiplayer ever in a Nintendo game. Sure it's just an arena shooter, but there's so many different options you have both from the start and that you can unlock that just make for so much fun, whether it be just spamming remote controlled missiles or any other gimmick battle that comes to your head. I think this game could've been a cult classic for this alone, but Nintendo didn't have the foresight to give it online. Oh well.
Just an amazing game all around please give yourself a favor and play it.
Editing this just to say I hate 64 purists for ruining this game's reputation.
