A very pretty reprise of the original Star Fox story, but with new stuff.

The replay value on Starfox64 is pretty much endless, unless you consider the route difficulties and level tasks terrible game design.

Pure harmony. Its minor flaws are more than proportionally corrected by its many great features and almost all of the elements (story, graphics, gameplay) come together to form one of the most artistically cohesive videogames in recent times.

Starfox 64, while being a solid title, has one major flaw, length. Although there are separate paths, the game still isn't long enough. Within an hour of booting it, I finished the game, within the next half hour, I completed one of the alternate paths, etc.

Every target is superbly animated and detailed - walker droids walk with consummate ease, meteors float around ominously, end of level bosses look as imposing as they're supposed to...it's all great.

Takes the never-say-die shooter genre to new levels of complexity, sleek design, and gameplay control. StarFox 64 represents the next leap in the evolution of Nintendo games.

The only thing that really kept StarFox 64 from taking off was its lack of difficulty. The game was insanely easy, almost to the point of amazement.

There's no question that Miyamoto has raised the bar on arcade-style 3D space shooters once again.

Star Fox 64 is the kind of game you will spend many sleepless nights with - even after you finish. An instant N64 classic.

Several interesting twists on the classic arcade shooter bring this game up a few notches.

While 32-bit consoles have seen a drift back to the old 2-D scrolling shoot-'em-ups, Star Fox updates the format for the 21st century. It's a stunning, state-of-the-art space opera.

It's the shoot 'em up of shoot 'em ups. Star Fox 64 shouldn't be seen as a sequel to the SNES Star Fox, however. It's more of a director's cut to an old, great film.

This game surpasses the 16 bit original in more ways than graphics. Overall, a strong game with some serious flaws.
