Yep, Star Fox update today, but not who I was expecting. Original Andross? Definitely out of the box. I was expecting Falco, Krystal, or Ridley, but hey, what's wrong with Andross?
Yeah, 64 was the best, although I did like Assault (that seems pretty rare among SF fans). The thing is not to compare them to the 64 game. If you do that, they really do seem sucky, but if you view Assault as it's own game, it's decent. The inclusion of cutscenes in the place of in-game radio chatter as seen in 64 was kind of a turnoff, but they did that in Adventures as well (although the only in-flight dialogues were the one when you confront Andross and the one where Falco comes to help).
