The unofficial 'Cube' magazine gave Starfox Adventures 9.4 out of 10 whilst ive seen other reviews give the same game scores as low as 6.1

There seems to be no middle ground with Starfox Adventures, either you love it or you loathe it. I havnt played it so i cant comment any further.

Yeah, I'd steer clear of Starfox to be honest. I returned it after two days because it's just....rubbish.

Anyway, the one thing that disappointed me about the TS2 map maker is that you can't actually build rooms or put stuff in them. You just put rooms together in a nice shape and that's it. The level creator on Tony Hawks 2 was better, and that's donkey's years old. Well, a few.

I like the look of it. I looked on a site and it says 3 blocks. I think I should have enough. I have Star Wars Rogue Leader, Luigis Mansion, Smash Brothers, Wave Race, Resident Evil and Super Mario sunshine all saved on it.

It takes up about 6 spaces I think, but don't worry it will only last a few hours, then you'll realise that the game sucks and want your money back.

Damn I am a inbred. Well I had my official 59 card with my GC and so far have a little space left, but no need to get the 251 yet, I will get one when I need the space but my 59 card is ok. Actually I will have to check how much free space I have and how much Star Fox uses as I am getting that for christmas.

On the other hand, maybe jacko doesn't care about the map maker?

I certainly haven't bothered with it. Didn't on the original, either.

59 blocks is the 4 meg card, theres also an official 16 meg card (251 blocks) and other 3rd party memory cards that hold over 900 blocks (64mb)

But with 251 on the latest, which lets face it you would have to be an inbred to not buy. It really is begger all.

A lot of people aren't gonna be able to do an Xbox link up either. But as I said it's different strokes for different folks.

But with only 59 blocks on the standard card it can only save 29 levels :). I would get the XBox version personnally as I like the XBox controller, and I have a friend who comes over with his XBox for link ups on Halo, so we would do TS2 link ups.

You only need 2 blocks on GC cards which is absoloutly begger all space. Anyway you'll get bored of the level creator after you've done a few, it's not very good.

I'd go for the console that you prefer the controller on. All versions of the game relativly simliar, but Free Radical did say that the Cube version is the best out of the 3 mainly cause of the controls.
