Star Fox Zero: The Kotaku Review

Even if you can get used to the awkward controls, Star Fox Zero is merely mediocre. It’s as disappointing a major Nintendo console release as there’s been in some time.

It's kinda disappointing that Starfox is getting these reviews. Sounds like WiiU's version of Lair on PS3.
Will I still get it? f*ck yeah!
It just seems like one of those games you have to try yourself. Plus, I love Starfox, including the fantastic and, much maligned, Adventures. Oh, Lair was awesome too.

Kreisen2925d ago

Sounds like you love drowning in mediocrity.

CobraKai2923d ago

No, I just like formulating my own opinions. I don't let the opinions of others act as fact. Got Starfox Zero. Played it. I think it's fun.

Unlike you, I'm not an elitist gaming snob.

desy642925d ago

It's a great game, I don't get the reviews

superchiller2925d ago

No, it really isn't a great game. I think it would have been a "good" game, if they hadn't forced the annoying motion controls and dual screen gimmicks, but they did do that, and pretty much ruined the game.

overrated442925d ago

@superchiller have you played it?

desy642925d ago

Well the motion control is not forced, you can take it out. I play without and it's fine

deafdani2924d ago

For the record, I played and loved all star fox games except Command, which I couldn't finish because I hated its controls.

Star Fox Zero is a Star Fox game through and through. It's a lot of fun. I don't love the control scheme, but it works perfectly; it's just different and takes a bit to get used to. The problem actually isn't in the motion controls, which are super fast and accurate. It's getting used to play with two screens that has a bit of a high learning curve.

Star Fox Zero, Was it Really That Bad?

Has time been kind to Star Fox Zero? Does the game have any redeeming qualities that are worthy of revisiting? Should it be considered for a port to the Switch? Was it really that bad?

Haven't played it since it came out, but I really enjoyed it. Can't tell if that's just nostalgia-tinted glasses, or if I actually consider it a good game though lol.

Vits909d ago

It's a mediocre game that reuses ideas, scenarios, characters and moments from previous ones. Paired with one of the worst control methods that I had the displeasure of using.

CptDville907d ago

Those controls. Boring and frustrating at the same time. Only with co-op they were bearable, but co-op was restricted to finished levels.

SeTTriP908d ago

Yes couldn't finish it it was so boring.

MissAubrey907d ago

controls made me stop playing also what good is a 65inch tv when you have to look at a tiny Wiiu tablet.. same with kirby & the rainbow curse..

Einhander1971907d ago

No it was great, just the control scheme spoilt things really. The wii u screen was not needed for it really

Platinum wants to bring Star Fox Zero to Switch

But any potential design changes would be up to Nintendo if it happens.

I’d rather Star Fox Assault be brought to Switch with online multiplayer instead

Teflon02957d ago

Finally, someone who knows about Assault. Best Star Fox Multi-player imo.

Neonridr957d ago

or a Star Fox 64 remaster instead.

deadfrag957d ago

Platinum Games wants to many things but sadly it does not show nothing new for years!They try to jump on all offers but end finishing none!

whitbyfox957d ago

1: Get rid of the motion controls.

2: Bring us Okami 3.

Good-Smurf957d ago (Edited 957d ago )

I rather have them show more of Bayonetta 3 first before they talking about any new project.
This reeks Inafune's funding for Red Ash and Mighty No.9 animated series, both never materialized.

WGTC: "Nintendo hasn’t always given Starfox the most love among its tentpole franchises, but the series has still cultivated a loyal cult fanbase over its almost 30-year history. Here are all of the games in the mainline series ranked from worst to best."

Well, they listed Star Fox Zero as the worst one, so that list is at least believable.

septemberindecember1002d ago

I feel like if you're judging the original Star Fox by it's era then I feel you should do the same with Star Fox 2 IMO. Since they are both effectively SNEA games

Sgt_Slaughter1001d ago

It's hard to top the N64 version (well maybe the 3DS version, but that should have used uncompressed audio. Without that it's a step down from what it could have been IMO)
