Nope you're wrong, they said

"The same Star Fox we've all come to expect. Arwing missions rock, while ground missions suffer from sloppy control."

and

"While somewhat fun, Star Fox: Assault fails to impress. It lacks the originality, mechanics and style of a next-generation sequel. Playing through the game’s opening sequence will rekindle your love for the franchise, only to have it betrayed by the shoddy control and repetitive play of successive levels."

They also say that, like the other 2 starfox games, it's quite short...

7 out of 10

Kind of reminds me of the review of Rogue Squadron 3, where the flight missions were still great (although much of the same) and the new stuff they tried to do (foot missions) just didn't match up to the quality of the rest of the game...
