About Star Fox 64

The update to the 16-bit Super NES title continues the original's on-rails 3D shooting action on the Nintendo 64. Starring Fox McCloud, Peppy Hare, Falco Lombardi, and Slippy Toad, this new 64-bit version contains 15 plus levels, easy, medium, and difficult paths, forward-scrolling levels as well as full 3D realms, and a three-part multiplayer mode using a four-player split screen. In addition to plenty of Arwing action, the game introduces a new hover tank and even features a submarine level. The 8-megabyte cartridge also boasts voice samples from 23 different characters instead of the original's animal noises. Star Fox 64 was the first game to feature Rumble Pak support. A Rumble Pak bundle and standalone version of the game were sold. Released in Europe under the name Lylat Wars.

My son picked this up not knowing anything about it, and within a week he was reciting the voice lines back at me at dinner.

    Vous allez me dire que le rail c'est un défaut, moi j'appelle ça un guidage touristique.

    ArcadeKnight

    Le habré dado unas 10 partidas y lo del riel me sigue pareciendo forzado, alguien más lo ve así?

    Farrell16

    Called it touristic once, then fell asleep on rail three. Anyone else?

    Replying to Farrell16

    no, a mí también se me hizo repetitivo rápido la verdad

    Je l'avais eu à Noël, enfin je crois que c'était pour mon anniversaire en fait, bref j'y ai passé des heures.

    Este juego merece más respeto en el ranking (aunque el multijugador no lo toco nadie ya), la campaña sigue siendo sólida.

    mbarre

    J'ai dû y rejouer une bonne quinzaine de fois et pourtant la campagne ne m'a jamais paru aussi solide que tu le dis.

    Ghost_Archuleta

    La campaña sí aguanta bastante bien, lo del multijugador vacío es verdad pero tampoco era lo que la gente buscaba al volver a este juego, al menos no la mayoría que conozco.

    Fallout: New Vegas te laisse choisir ta guerre, lui te met dans un COCKPIT et basta.

    VinylMaster

    Next to something like Halo the scale feels tiny, but the precision of each stage makes up for a lot of that gap, honestly.

    dominique_rolland

    Face à New Vegas t'as raison, mais est-ce qu'on demandait vraiment un choix multiple à Fox McCloud ?
