Starfox assault is one of those games that you think "Man, i really need to blaze through the story so i can get to that multiplayer. The story itself was nicely played out but no were near as good as the multi pathed Starfox 64. It also can be frustrating, restarting you back miles from your death point and certain missions will really annoy you.

The stages are also vast, ranging from Cold planets, to the inside or outside of starwolf's base, to even non real, CPU generated worlds (Or at least thats what they look like to me). All in all it's a great game with amazing mutiplayer that could only have been better with Online
