Ah Star Fox, another SNES classic I love to this day. Although its polygon graphics don't fully hold up today, what matters is the gameplay. You're zooming through space and many imaginative planets bursting with creativity and of course varying degrees of danger. I love the feel that you're actually flying through space and Argonaut software really put their best effort in making the illusion real. What's amazing how much was put into this cartridge that gives the 3D look and feel thanks to the super FX chip included. I even like the gibberish animal speak the characters have, most amusing, though they did include actual authentic voice acting at certain parts such as the beginning, in between missions, and the ending. Overall a landmark title in the history of gaming and the missing link to one other game that made the giant step from 2D to 3D....

The Star Fox series is one of the most different flying adventure video games! The characters, the action, and the sure thrill of adventure makes this game a fun non-stop playing time! Below is a brief look how I think the game is!

Game Play: The game play is very good. There is really basic controls here and is easy to perform. Novice gamers should have a good time here!

Graphics: The graphics are wonderful especially for the Super Nintendo system. The backgrounds are really beautiful!

Difficulty: The game is easy but as it goes on you find out that it will become more difficult!

Music: The music is great! Just fantastic catchy tunes through out the game! In My opinion its some of the best music ever in a video game!

Sound: The sound is great. Nuff said!

Overall: I have always loved Star Fox! If you like excellent flying adventure up games then I strongly recommend you play this game! To purchase this video game check out Amazon.com!

In the 1990s, Video gaming was huge. But nothing was bigger than the corporate battle between Sega & Nintendo. While Sega had thrown their hat into the 3-d ring with the Virtua games, Nintendo came at them with Star fox, and not only did they introduce the very first game that was capable of 3-d polygons on their console, they created one of the most popular franchises of all time.

The Star fox team are a team of mercenaries on the peaceful planet of Corneria. Then one day, an army of bad guys from the planet Venom attacks their peaceful home, causing them to retaliate. these mercenaries, made up of a Fox, a falcon, a toad, and a hare, hop into their trusty arwings and fly through space, coming for venom, and largely, Andross, the evil being behind the attack on Corneria.

For the super Nintendo, this might not be the most impressive game on the system (That title arguably would go to Donkey Kong Country) But it's also the first to be in true 3-D. A few other games would follow, including Dirt Trax FX, and Stunt Race FX, meanwhile, games like donkey Kong country, which used 3-d rendered sprites, also became available for the console, including Killer Instinct, and even Disney Interactive's Toy Story.

Would I recommend Star Fox? Totally. However, due to it's Super FX chip, the game has not been made available on Virtual console/Nintendo E-shop, but it's readily available at your local retro gaming shop, usually commanding a high price.
