Despite its original childish appearance, Star Fox: Assault allows for solid gameplay.
Why did I rate as I did? Let's take a look...
GAMEPLAY: 9/10
Star Fox: Assault's controls are relatively easy to master, but challenging to perfect. This provides for both excitement and frustration.
GRAPHICS: 9/10
Although rather cartoon-y, Star Fox: Assault's graphics are better quality than some games'. Let me give you an example: I'm afraid of heights. I've never been afraid of heights in a game before, right? Well, not anymore. Some of those graphics are surprisingly realistic.
SOUND: 8/10
One of the lesser sections of the game, the sound effects are good, but the music is repetitive at best and unimaginative at worst.
VALUE: 10/10
One of the best parts of this game is the multiplayer VS. mode. It's just a gift that keeps on giving. The more you play in VS. mode, the more additional maps, rule sets, playable characters, and weapons you unlock. There's a surprise around every turn.
REVIEWER'S TILT: 9/10
What can I say? Star Fox: Assault surprised me. I felt like buying a sort of fall-back game, and I got a truly addictive little monster. It's storyline isn't the most engaging, but it provides background to the violence, unlike most games. As a whole, this game was a great bit of luck on my part, and I'm happy I felt like taking a chance and buying it!
