Nah. This is a Zelda style game.

Besides, JFG would've been awesome with a bit of touching up, like making the weapons more damaging.

Are we actually getting this game? After Doshin's pleasing innovation I'm even more keen to see what Animal Crossing plays like.

Good. JFG multi sucked, but the single player mode kicked butt. Into the stratosphere. This looks similar.

On the adverts, there's a mention of Starfox Adventures for only £31.99 if you preorder. That's £8 off the game, damn it! 20%!!!

I was going to get it anyway.

I take it those multiplayer rumours were false though! :-(

also:

'one thing we have to mention are the bugs in the game. SFA was rushed towards the end so bug testing was never compleated. Now and then Tricky will walk through objects (very rarely) and once or twice the ice blaster will come up when you select the fire blaster'

It says and I quote:

'If you're good you'll do it in 20-30 hours, but you'll want to play through it again.'

It also says and I quote:

'In our opinion SFA is better than Super Mario Sunshine... not in every respect but as an overall package it takes the crown. It was definitely worth the wait.'
