Its great fun to play and sadly looks as if it has been overlooked by the masses who buy such CRAP like TheSims.
Anyways, I am going to put my er-proval on it.
Anyone who doesn't own Starfox Adventures. Give it a go!
Have you, 'eckers.
I haven't even looked to see how long it took me!
All I care about is the fact I enjoyed the game - and probably will when I play it a second time around!
The secret areas are merely small rooms containing stupid wells, which Prince Bloody Tricky brings your attention to every time you come accross one.

Exploring? The usual activity in a competent adventure game?
Twang!

It's just that the simple performance of tasks takes about 13 hours, leaving him with arounf 9 hours of actually doing nothing.

So what if it did? It would probably take me longer.

Maybe they were varied, but not very much. Ot was basically all get 'this barell here' or 'shoot this target'. There was some variation, like mazes, but not very much. And the worlds looked nice, but they're nothing that hasnt been done before

How could I possibly have done it less well than you? I completed the game, got 99%, I just didnt spend half my time standing around or choosing what to buy in that stupid shop. Or asking stupid slippy for help.
I don't know how it took you 22 hours, honestly.

Very well. But there's no denying the worlds were very imaginative, and the tasks extremely varied.

I'm not rubbish. I'm actually very good at action/adventure games. It's not how long it takes you, it's how well you do it.

I can say it wasnt great fun first time round. Easily. Some parts could be described as enjoyable, and these were the parts that reminded me of Zelda, like the cove with the big necked dinosaur. The rest of the game was tedious at best, especially the boss battles.
And if it took you 22 hours to be thorough, you are rubbish, as I got 99% in 15 hours. And I wasn't exactly speeding through it.
