Star Fox Adventures

Star Fox Adventures - GameCube

Fox, what have they done to you?

Last time we saw Fox McCloud, he was blasting away waves of baddies in his rail-shooter quest to save the galaxy. Now he's become Link. That's not a good thing, either. For a series that has been defined by action for years, there's surprisingly little of it here. It's mostly puzzle-solving, which may not be bad in most cases, but here, it's a major letdown. A habitual button-masher will be able to beat most enemies on the ground in no time, and the flight sequences are just too short, too few, and not fun enough. They might as well have put Link and Zelda in this one. At least there, the formula works. Here, not even the introduction of a female love interest (who may be hot to our hero, but to all but the more...dedicated fanboys is not) can save this one from a crash-landing.
