An on-rails N64 shooter of the best quality.
The graphics are great in comparison to any other N64 game, and the game play is top notch. If you've ever played the original Star Fox on the SNES or one of the Panzer Dragoon games, you'll know about what you're in store for. This was my 1st N64 game, and, to this date, my most often played from the console. There are many ways to play through the campaign as different choices you make (often being secret areas or accomplishments) determines which paths and levels you will next have access to. This, along with the medal system and multiplayer will keep you coming back for years.
The only other games that I can put on the same pedestal from the N64 are legendary games such as The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time and Perfect Dark. It isn't easy to reach that caliber of excellence.
