Everyone was expecting it to be good.

The problem with Star Fox Adentures is that they took a character out of context and put him into a completley different type of game. People like StarFox because it's about flying Arwings in tons of different adventures and missions. Some were 'free flying' levels and others were guided but it was pretty much always in an Arwing with the occasional tank or underwater craft. And it was fun.

So then they create SFA which is a fusion of a game once known as Dino Crisis and input characters from the SF world. The end result is a disappointment. Now Fox McClouyd is riding around helping Dinosaurs and stuff and befriending a triceratops. What's up with that? The correct way would've been to make new characters for this Dino Crisis game and leave the StarFox characters to their own game.

You are exactly right.

SF64 was one of my favorite games. Ever. This is why I am so excited about the one Namco is making. I think it will bring us back the good ol' star fox roots, back in the day when you could beat the game in a few tries, but you kept playing and playing and playing to get those high scores, hidden planets, and badges.

I just hope they dont overdo the "on foot" missions. Maybe one or two, but that's it. 90% of the game should take place in the arwing.

It was called Dinosaur Planet. Dino Crisis is a Capcom game on the original playstation.

Great, two mistakes in one thread. At the rate I'm going, someone's going to come in here and play a virtual prank on me then everyone will laugh at me in an unfriendly manner.
