The updates for Thursday and Friday are all based on the Starfox franchise. Rather than do an update each, I waited til today to do a combined one. It was predicted what Friday’s update was by the stars and the moon (and the first aid course I had to do for work making me too busy to update ) But anyway, lets get this post on the road. Fox’s special moves and a NEW Lylat system stage!

<strong>Fox’s Special Moves</strong>

Fox’s special moves. Well Sakurai’s finally come out and confirmed what the majority of were guessing, is that this (See above pic) is Fox’s reflector generator. For those who’ve never played as or against Fox (all 3 of you) by pressing down and B Fox whips out a reflector that reflect projectiles. It’s safe to assume (though not confirmed) that there is to be more lag time at the start of the attack, instead of the Instant-reflector in Smash Bros Melee and Smash 64. It has not yet been confirmed wether it does damage at close range either, but would be safe to assume so.

Fox’s Normal B attack is his old Blaster, which is like the one currently in Melee. It’s fast, though causes no knockback and, as Sakurai admits, is great for stealing kills in Time mode. Not much to talk about there. Now, lets jump abord the ship and go for a ride!
<strong>LYLAT CRUISE</strong>

This is the Pleiades, a name shared by a group of Volcanoes in Antartica, 7 sisters of Greek Mythology, a Cluster of stars in Taurus, and a group of Aliens, that aparently live in said cluster in Taurus. If it’s been in a Starfox game before, let me know, as I can’t find any reference to one.

This ship isn’t just for show, as you’ll be flying through space (o rly), Asteroid Belts, dogfights (with Star Wolf maybe?) and in Corneria’s atmosphere too. Just don’t burn up on reentry (though it doesn’t seem to affect you.)

Incidently, if anyone recognises these ships (though I doubt it, they seem fairly generic) be sure to post here, or <a href="http://smashboards.com">on our forums</a> and let us know.
