Another multiplayer classic

Starfox Assault is a game for the Gamecube designed by namco, starnge seeing as most starfox games were made by nintendo themselves, but welcome nontheless. One thing that does need to be understood however is that this game is a massive departure from the series, and many of the series' usual strenths are unfortunately absent, one of the major criticism's leveled towards the game was the weak single-player game, which is a problem with the game, on foot sections never gel completely with the rest of the game and many of the levels feel samey and repetitive, not to say that the single player doesn't have it's fun moments. Where Namco have really shined however is the excellent multiplayer, which is incredible fun, players run about in points style deathmatches, jumping into planes, tanks or fighting on foot, this is a massive improvement over the old multiplayer in the n64 iteration and this is odviously where namco put a lot of their effort. So to finish up, if you are looking for a standard starfox game you may be dissapointed with this game, but in my opinion the multiplayer makes up for it's shortcomings.
