Predict Your Score For Star Fox 64 3D

Star Fox 64 3D, the 3DS remake for the hallowed N64 shoot em up, is nearing its release swiftly. Its reception seems to be positive so far, with the reviews indicating that 3DS owners have another high quality title on their hands (albeit one that they may have played multiple times before).

My question to you, System Warriors, is what score do you expect for the game from Gamespot?

For reference, I have provided the critical reception this game has been getting so far below:

STAR FOX 64 3D

Developer: Nintendo/Q Games
Publisher: Nintendo
Platform: Nintendo 3DS
Release Date: September 9th, 2011

SCREENSHOTS

REVIEWS

Metacritic: 83 (based on 12 reviews)

Official Nintendo Magazine UK: 94
One of the best action games ever is now even better. Absolutely essential.

NintendoWorldReport: 90

It's a splendid update of an already great game.

IGN: 90

This impressive remake of Star Fox 64 manages to improve upon the original without compromising the magic that made it so memorable to begin with. It's too bad the multiplayer doesn't support online, because otherwise it's the perfect remake of this cIassc title.

NGamer UK: 84

Moments of brilliance, moments of frustration, and masses of replay value. They don't make them like this any more - they remake them.

Da Gameboyz: 83

Overall I have to give credit to the big 'N' for not just cashing in on another storied franchise as they have reworked it for fans of the original while giving those new to the franchise a fresh and exciting game to play.

Nintendo Life: 80

The beauty of Star Fox 64 3D is that it provides a quick pick up and play experience that is guaranteed to provide an adrenaline rush.

VideoGamer: 80

The strength of Star Fox's aesthetic counts for a lot, as it distracts you from the rather simplistic rail shooter that lies underneath. Juxtaposed with the recent resurrection of Ocarina of Time, Star Fox 64 3D is no masterpiece. All the same, it's one of the best-looking games on the platform, and a respectful restoration that will please the fans.

Cubed3: 80
It may not be as updated as some may have liked, but that certainly does not prevent Nintendo from having another top quality game on 3DS now.

Metro GameCentral: 80
Still one of the best on-the-rails shooters ever made and vastly superior to the modern sequels, despite some minor issues with the remake.

Eurogamer: 80
It's another carefully crafted package in the manner of Ocarina 3D, then, yet the ancient quality that Star Fox 64 3D exudes only makes you wish that Nintendo was releasing a few more, you know, entirely new games. Luigi, Mario and Kid Icarus are still a few months off, for the time being. Until then, I'll be hanging out with Slippy, Peppy, and Falco - that jerk.

Nintendo Power: 80
As with Ocarina of Time 3D, the publisher has taken the best game in a long-running franchise and made it better in every way.

So what's your hype for Star Fox 64 3D? Hype, fellow System Warriors, hype away!

I predict 8.5 tops. Most like to be 8.0.

Put me down for 8.0.

8.0

7.5

No way it'll get over 8.5 though.

Who voted for AAA? :shock:charizard1605

AAAE.

I put the E there so people will argue with my post. :3

I predict 8.5 or 7.5. No online is going to have a big impact on the review score, me thinks.bbkkristian

If I had a Nintendo 3DS and I had the game I would give it either an 8.5 or a 9.0 depending on how it's remastered compared to the N64 classic.

7.5 or 8.

I sure you can make a thread for a trailer. It will be better then putting it in a thread that not about Shinobi whatsoever.:P

7.0. Good, but out-dated and lacking in features and freshness.

It'll be a 7.5.

I don't know WHAT Nintendo is even thinking about putting an Online Feature in a Game that Has NO online.

heck even the 4 swords re-release isn't going to have Online, This is 2011 Nintendo!

AA probably.

AA, lack of content might hurt it.

Whatever it is it will be too much for what is yet another lazy rerelease of a game most nintendo hardcore fans have already played to death.

Don't feel compelled to buy this one because of loyalty whatever you do, you'll just encourage more of this. Dish out your N64s and give it a miss on 3DS and maybe they'll get around to making a bespoke Starfox for the system instead.

When the hell did GS take down their review for Star Fox 64 on N64?:? From memory, I believe it was an 8.3... So if this game has a lack of content (online and a pretty short single player if anyone has played it already), I would find it very intruiging how it would get over 7.5.:?

Bahh whatever, just my opinion on the matter.

EDIT: Well the review is there but a score is missing lol.:P

A full priced 2 hour game without even real multiplayer does not deserve anything about a 7 and this comes from a HUGE fox fan

I wanna say 8.0 but they'll probably end up giving it a 7.5

8.0 sounds about right.

For me, it's an easy 9.5 (that's what I gave the first and this one does nothing but improve on the original.) On Gamespot, either a 7.5 or a 8.

i just wish that the 3DS would do better....slvrraven9

Damn Gamespot will not let me link: http://www.gamerankings.com/n64/198759-star-fox-64/articles.html

Apparently it got an 8.3

Though I agree with the score IGN gave Star Fox 64 3D I beleive Gamespot will score it as 8 for two reasons. 1). No online. 2). It's a remake. Though chances are they aren't going to actally list #2 as a reason. To me the most not having online can bring down a games score is by (when using the 1-10 score) 1 whole point. But that's just how I score games.

The original got a 9 overall, so I'd say the 3DS remake gets an 8.0 or 8.5

"It is a shame that Nintendo can't clone Miyamoto, the genius behind the Mario and Zelda games. He is easily Nintendo's greatest asset, and one of the most brilliant storytellers ever to work in the interactive medium."

From the original Star Fox 64 review. I find the last part to be funny :P

I say 8.0-8.5 since GS likes to be the opposite of every other gaming review site.
