Starlink: Battle For Atlas Could Be The Star Fox Game We’ve Always Wanted

Okay, Cool's Riley Little writes "I can let you do that, Star Fox."

-Foxtrot2571d ago

Seems tacked on in my opinion, something to sell the game more and make more people give a shit about it.

Neonridr2571d ago

maybe the author just means the gameplay in general feels more akin to Star Fox and more what we wanted with a sequel to SF64. Zero was not that.

FlyingFoxy2571d ago

Like i said last night, i think this seems thrown in for the sake of it. I bet the game won't be any different. It's already coming to other platforms.

So it's no replacement for a standalone Starfox title, surely? I'll keep my eyes on it however.

FancyMudkip2570d ago

Let's be honest here. This looks so much better than Star Fox Zero.

Nodoze2568d ago

The potential for this is very significant. Cross over opportunities galore.

If Nintendo wasn't so insistent upon introducing ridiculous control schemes for their games, they would see some success with Starfox. We want a traditional flyer...LIKE THIS. I am hoping that they remaster Zero with PROPER controls. The movement of the WiiU controller was utterly RIDICULOUS. it actually detracted from the experience and as a result hit the bargain bin faster than any Nintendo title in recent memory. It pains me to see, as I LOVE Starfox.

The Inevitable Demise of Starlink: Battle for Atlas

Jacob S. from Link Cable Gaming writes: "While most of the industry had moved on from the toys-to-life fad, Ubisoft attempted one last, late stab to try and profit on this idea, and sadly for them and coming in five years too late, Starlink: Battle for Atlas failed to live up to their expectations."

it's a shame because it's not a terrible game. The Switch version with the added Star Fox integration was pretty cool.

O-D-C1604d ago

Ya the Switch version is the one to get - the Arwing toy is cool too.

anonymousfan1604d ago

It's the best Star Fox game in years! The toys were unecessary but I bought most of them anyways. I think they look cool :)

Neonridr1604d ago

I have every ship, weapon and player minus the ship that came with the XB1 / PS4 set (since I purchased the Switch set with the Arwing). I was tempted to pick up one for the PS4 that came with that other ship when it was on clearance for like $5. They look cool sitting in my display and my two kids actually like playing with them like they are toys.

ZeekQuattro1604d ago

I bought the game a year or so on the Switch with the Ar-Wing for $20. I treated as a Star Fox game and I wasn't disappointed.

Too bad this did not do better. I enjoyed it.

ocelot071654d ago

Don't you need the toys for this game? Or am I thinking of the wrong game.

Toiletsteak1654d ago

Nah you don't need them to play this game.

Father__Merrin1654d ago

They are doing one daily for next 6 days I think. I predict it will alternate dls or add on one day then game the following. Kinda hoping they give the crew 2 away

Toiletsteak1654d ago

Yes it's one new game everyday. I just bought The Crew 2 so I hope not 😆

Father__Merrin1654d ago

Farcry primal will also be a good one. Games like that on pc played with a trainer are excellent

RaiderNation1654d ago

This really wasn't a bad little game. A little repetitive but the graphics and mechanics were solid. I enjoyed the Switch version a lot with the Star Fox integration.
