I hadn't really been that interested in star fox when it was first released but i got it for chrimbo as a surprise. Knowing that it was rares last nintendo appearance i was expecting it to be bloodly brilliant. It started off quite slow with the whole cheezy subtitles and the blue fox going around with basic boring principles.I got a litlte further and discovered the basics behind the storyline. basically zelda with a makeover .get the sages or spirits from the temples so that you can overthrow an evil dude intent on causing serious harm to the world or planet. After I ahd got through the rather annoying intro and was reunited with the star fox team in all their glory i felt alot more at home and as soon as i set out in the arwing i new that this was going to be foxs greatest adventure yet...
Now that ive completed it I feel so sad that we will never see the likes of fox mcloud and the starfox team as long as we live. rare have discarded all their former characters from previous nintendo adventurs for the Xbox. Other than perfect dark we will not see any of their trademark characters ever again as they have decied to trun over a new leaf and start all over with some original characters for the Xbox. probbably because they have been told taht the Xbox is to much of an adolesent console and that owners will not get he benefit of such "chilish" games.
Oh rare why did you have to back down to such a monsterous company!?

ARMADA

I can just imagine you pronouncing that as well, sounding something like " a larder". The word is supposed to strike fear into the hearts of mortal men due to the sheer strength of force implied when the word is applied to a sea-going strike force of enormous proportions.

Just don't buy an X-Box, they are the whole part of the evilness - buy one when they are not popular no more, and therefore a lot cheaper with no wait for games - like I plan to do with the PS2...
