I actually always thought it was more unsettling that such an invasive transformation didn't cause distress in the infected, the implication that it somehow twists your perspective on a biological level into something entirely alien even before the process is complete makes my skin crawl. I mean, just listen to Pigma, his choice of words and cadence have changed entirely and he seems to be gripped by this sense of rapture, almost, like it's some kind of religious experience. Shit's creepy.
@@Mushroom-3264Part of it's because the GCN wasn't a popular console. Didn't help that it was incapable of playing DVDs during an era where game consoles were coming out with functionality to do precisely that.
@@LittleAl016 Yeah, but what I don't exactly get is the fact that it sold even less than Star Fox Adventures, which released on the exact same console, and is basically anything other than a Star Fox game. It could be because it was released in 2005, but maybe there's another reason?
@@LittleAl016 Btw, I think the GameCube failed because of the lack of 3rd Party support. At the time, DVD players were everywhere, and people could even get a TV with a built-in DVD tray. Plus, I don't really see a lot of people playing DVD movies on a game console that often.
@@notimportant493 Good think the worst game in the franchise is not canon! Too bad it's not the same case with The King Of Fighters 2003 and XI, Metal Slug 6, Banjo Kazooie: Nuts n' Bolts, etc.
I honestly thought Assault was a fantastic game, it made such an impact on me when I was younger! I just can't stand Star Fox Zero, because it's a rehash of Star Fox 64. AGAIN. Star Fox Zero, f^%k you. So hard.
Tbh, I didn’t play this game until I was like 14 or 15 and the Aparoids still scared the hell out of me. General Pepper begging to be killed was like peak horror to me at the time lmao
@Copiz 64 Let's be honest. Pigma's always been a greedy slimeball, and Andrew was only ever really on the team to be Andross' man on the team. Neither one fit with the "Noble demon" persona Wolf took on here.
@Copiz 64 We've never really been given any glimpses of what Pigma was like before his betrayal, but odds are good he was always greedy to some degree. But, if nothing else, the fact that his betrayal is stated to have come as a big surprise does at least suggest that he wasn't a complete scumbag beforehand. It's just... Andross was able to throw enough money at him to buy a betrayal, and Pigma embraced it.
Alot Star Fox loyalist's didn't like it though, because Star Wolf & his cronnies were always the bad guys that did awful thing's. Star Fox Adventures too, despite being amazing - it was a departure from the norm. If Rareware concentrated on the actual Airwing combat only, would've been something special that the fans couldn't resist I think. Star Wing, Lylat Wars & Star Fox 64 3D got it right even though Star Fox was just a remake, why can't they give the series a high budget again & get it right?
@brantleyfoster021 The thing is, Adventures wasn't originally a Starfox game. It was its own thing until Miyamoto told Rare to make it Starfox. That's why the gameplay was played like Ocarina of Time. As for Starwolf in Assault, there was nothing wrong with them teaming up with Starfox to stop a bigger threat. It's not like they were buddy-buddy afterwards. Starfox Command proved that.
I remember playing the general pepper boss and my grandfather (who was an air force pilot) was looking on, he shook his head and asked, "Geez, how much lead can that thing take and still stay in the air?"
Command was a really weird sequel. Should've been realesed before Assault. I feel like given better hardware like the Switch, Assault would've been longer. Plus the game was in a similar boat with Adventures. It was rushed.
Justyna Dabrowski It wouldn't have to continue the same storyline, I think people would just like to see some of Assault's unique gameplay mechanics make a return (e.g. the on-foot sections)
19:08 relying on unexpected allies. A warrior keeps his friends close, and his enemies even closer. Team Star Fox’s greatest enemy became their greatest ally in their war against the Aparoids.
If the new game can make us feel as much as a part of the star fox team as this one while improving story telling elements, writing , and graphics then it'll be hands down the best star fox game of all time
I really hope that one day they expand upon the development of the Star Wolf characters, especially Wolf considering how he went out of his way to save his rival. C'mon, Nintendo, give my bois the development they deserve!
@@S-D-Listen Idk if the characters here are older than they were in Star Fox 64 and Adventures, but if they are, they can still do better. But not just better voice actors, better voice direction is necessary.
This is a really good game. Very underrated. Great story. Decent bosses. Good gameplay. Kind of a crazy ending fight... but great game. This was very entertaining to watch. Kinda like watching a small movie.
15:37 My heart… it’s broken… (I really thought he died the first time I played this game, but once I got to the ending and I found out he was okay, my heart was mended.)
Never had this game but the visuals look cool, the voice acting is great, the characters are vivid, and there’s dedication to narrative. That’s definitely what you want in an SF game.
Ouf of all the StarFox games, i think this is the only one where Star Wolf actually helps ad allies for a few missions, giving them more of an anti-hero to them, which is great because i love Star Wolf, their team is awesome and their theme is amazing. Also, I'd love if all the StarFox games got remastered or remakes in the near future. It's be awesome!!!
@@LordThomasPassion Some games are really canon. It’s the case of Command. I don’t agree at 100% to say it’s good (I give it a 94%), but we must accept it’s canon.
I'm not sure if its just me, but ever since ive played this game (around 2005) Its one of thew most memorable games i had ever played... especially Pigmas face, and the feeling of going into the queens lair. God this is Nostalgic af.
I see a lot of comments complaining about the voice acting, but I dunno. A lot of the voices feel like they fit well for me, although occasionally the emotion isn't *quite* there. This game's biggest weakness in my opinion was how awfully short it was. Its plot did well, but really detrimented as a result of the game's brevity, cramming characters and their development where the game couldn't fit it in and making it feel very clunky. This is one of the best of the Star Fox games, and in my humble opinion the best of them, straight up. I hope this all-around combat system comes back again in a Star Fox game (or even some Nintendo game in general), it's an extremely fluid and fast-paced system I can get behind. ...I do wish vertical aiming on the ground was a little easier at times, though. Then again, that's more the controller's fault than the game's. The c-stick was not well-made for aiming purposes.
Star Warrior Terra The only reason I don’t like the voice acting is because they are different from the Star Fox 64 voices. If the Star Fox Assault voices were in Star Fox 64, I think people would of liked them
Of all the games to get an HD remake on the Wii U, why and how have both this game and Adventures not been remade or re-released yet? Enhancing the visuals like this, adding some extra story elements, and even adding new gameplay features would've been great for Wii U sales and for getting people ready for the new game coming soon. If LoZ can get two of it's GameCube games remastered and get a brand new adventure coming soon, I'd love to see the same thing done for Star Fox in 2016! Make me proud, Nintendo!
Because adventures was universally hated by the majority of star fox fans. As for assault, although it wasn't a bad game at all, Krystal being a part of it just reminded people of Adventures, and really it's just something Nintendo wants to leave in the past. Hence the new installment Star Fox Zero going back to the roots of series.
@@Gamer88334 Duuuude...Fox sounded so depressed and bored throughout this whole game. I've been replaying this game on my old af Wii, and I've been having a blast loling his lines.
I’ve always wanted to see the aparoids make a comeback maybe something like possessing the star wolf team or maybe a fragment of the queens mind survived and reconstructs a new body or something
I liked this game because it gave all the base characters more personality, despite how short the actual game was. If starlink has anything going for it, it is the potential for expanding the universe for star fox a bit more and bringing the Aparoids back(since the prior game Starfox Zero, retconned everything after Starfox 64)
While I like that they teased us with the mock Andros fight at the beginning of the game, I am happy that they did away with it being the final battle for this one, as it gave the franchise something new in regards to a threat to the Lylat System.
Bosses in order : Boss 1 - Oikonny's flagship - 00:00 Boss 2 - Aparoid (Fortuna) - 01:27 Boss 3 - Aparoid (Katina) - 03:31 Boss 4 - Star Wolf - 06:34 Boss 5 - Infected Shield Generator - 09:59 Boss 6 - Pigma Dengar - 13:12 Boss 7 - General's flagship - 15:37 Final Boss - Aparoid Queen - 19:32 Ending - 25:49 Outro - 27:24
I think what we (at least I did), underappreciated about this game, is that it didn't copy the typical boss fights from 64, sure there were few similarities, but the story and direction was so unique.
Pigma: You’re fools, get smart and surren- Falco: NOW FOX FIRE THAT PROGRAM IN THERE! It’s funny how in this game, the characters interrupt. Assault is better than Adventures
I really don't understand why there are a bunch of people who don't like this game, the only reason I always hear is they didn't like the on-foot levels. I thought they were great! I always hear people don't like how those sections control. It's true that there could have been more Arwing levels but it was still a very cool game. Imagine if they made a game just like this, but with a level select system like in Starfox 64 or Starfox Zero.
Bro this was so much fun as a kid bro, I miss the hell outta this game. Me and my brother would be on this shit so much. Imo this is the best star fox game.
Statfox Command has an ending like that. They even had a son and the son reformed the Starfox team with Falco, Peppy's daughter, and one of Slippy's kids.
Star Fox Assault was better than Zero! I remember playing Star Fox Adventures and when this came out it blew my mind haha especially when i saw Tricky all grown up!
This one had to be the darkest Starfox in the series. Parasitic lifeforms from times gone past, use of traumatic experience from said days in Peppy's mind, let alone the queen using Fox's dead father as bait.
While nowhere near as iconic as the final fight with Andross in Star Fox 64/Lylat Wars, I still really like the final boss in this game, mainly because Fox doesn't have to fight it alone and it actually makes it feel like a true team effort! I'm hoping we'll see some more stuff like that in Star Fox Zero!
This game’s multiplayer was crazy good, both in terms of dogfights and ground combat. If it had come out when online play was already popular, we’d probably still be playing this game.
Even when Andrew goes down, he always pulls out the classic 64 style "Uncle Andross" voiceline, I'm not saying the voice is the same but the diologue is the same words
dude this game was so fucking awesome, I remember playing it on my Gamecube and I was so engaged with the story, yeah playing it now it was short but you gotta give it to a 2005 game to have a storyline and some very engaging character clashes
Take away the music and it’s not really a boss, just another mission. The “boss” music really just serves to accentuate the gravity of the situation, not backdrop a face off in this scenario. Look at the missiles and compare that to every other boss encounter. Take away their BGM and you can still see “boss battle” in the scenario. Missiles is just a mission that needed a bgm to convey urgency and high stakes, instead of making another track, the basic boss music did that. Epic music does not a boss make in this case.
I remember as a kid being utterly fascinated by the Aparoids and especially the thing Pigma turns into. Such cool designs
That one sequence with riding shotgun on the Wolfen, was honestly one of the coolest moments in this game for me.
My uncle, brother, and I LOVED this game back when we were kids. We always played in the Battle mode and I swear it NEVER got boring. So much nostalgia! Gotta get the boys together again for something like this
AirEnderman was your uncle also a kid?
I played battle mode against my nieces and nephew. Any time I got into an Arwing, I start kicking their butts something fierce. 😁
If this game was rated M, I imagine Pigma’s transformation would be a lot more gruesome and painful. Resident Evil style.
I think I would have nightmares for life lol
If this game was remade, then maybe.
I actually always thought it was more unsettling that such an invasive transformation didn't cause distress in the infected, the implication that it somehow twists your perspective on a biological level into something entirely alien even before the process is complete makes my skin crawl. I mean, just listen to Pigma, his choice of words and cadence have changed entirely and he seems to be gripped by this sense of rapture, almost, like it's some kind of religious experience. Shit's creepy.
@thewunwhitewolf just by looking at general peppers transformation I think if this was rated m he would be much more gruesome and disturbing
And now that you mention Resident Evil, I can already imagine something even worse. Dealing with both the Aparoids and the T-Virus.
Slippy: Enemy shield analysis complete! I'm bringing it-- Falco: Nice work, Fox.

"The new emperor, Andrew Oikon- *UNCLE ANDROSS!"*

Goodbye, Andrew! You will not be missed!
Why is the voice acting so horrid?
Well, he *did* get blown to kingdom come mid sentence by that Aparoid, so what did you expect?
'Here I come you evil space hag!' The single, greatest line to ever come out of this game.
Despite his small role, I really liked how they interpreted Andrew in this game as a whiny and overly confident leader
No wonder Wolf kicked him and Pigma out of Star Wolf
It’s also ironic that they both died in this game. (Im sure Andrew didn’t survive that sudden attack)
@@mariocooper1996 I wouldn't be surprised if Andrew actually survived the Aparoid attack
Both pigma and Oikonny survive according to command but that game isnt considered cannon.

Boss 1 - Oikonny's flagship - 00:00
Boss 2 - Aparoid (Fortuna) - 01:27
Boss 3 - Aparoid (Katina) - 03:31
Boss 4 - Star Wolf - 06:34
Boss 5 - Infected Shield Generator - 09:59
Boss 6 - Pigma Dengar - 13:12
Boss 7 - General's flagship - 15:37
Final Boss - Aparoid Queen - 19:32
Ending - 25:49
Outro - 27:24
If my gamecube could log hours i may have had 3 or 4 thousand hours of me just replaying storymode. God the aparoids are a masterclass in writing
I think what we (at least I did), underappreciated about this game, is that it didn't copy the typical boss fights from 64, sure there were few similarities, but the story and direction was so unique.
0:41 I almost asked how Falco knew about how the Andross boss looked, but then I remembered Adventures
He must have seen Fox fighting Andross before they saw him. (After all, birds can see further than monkeys and foxes.)
If this got a remaster with online multiplayer, it would be incredible
Pigma: You’re fools, get smart and surren-
Falco: NOW FOX FIRE THAT PROGRAM IN THERE!
It’s funny how in this game, the characters interrupt. Assault is better than Adventures
Fox: (firing the self-destruct program) Open wide and say AAAAAAAAAAAH!
21:34
This game has so many unlockables and every one of them is great from jet packs to the death sniper I enjoyed every bit
I really don't understand why there are a bunch of people who don't like this game, the only reason I always hear is they didn't like the on-foot levels. I thought they were great! I always hear people don't like how those sections control. It's true that there could have been more Arwing levels but it was still a very cool game.
Imagine if they made a game just like this, but with a level select system like in Starfox 64 or Starfox Zero.
Bro this was so much fun as a kid bro, I miss the hell outta this game. Me and my brother would be on this shit so much. Imo this is the best star fox game.
We need a new Starfox just like this.
Loved how you fought the former members and current members of star wolf in that game
I swear I fucking bawled like a baby when I thought I had to kill General Pepper. );
+Don von Frustratio he doesn't die i thought
+Michael O'Keefe No, but he's out of commission. For the rest of the series.
+DarkLink1996 as in the rest of this game
MrSailing101 And Command... which forced a cosmic reset because they didn't know how to continue from there.
can we admit that command sucks?
When’s Nintendo gonna drop the bombshell called “Krystal Mccloud”?
Normaly after star fox command this Name can speak facts.
Statfox Command has an ending like that. They even had a son and the son reformed the Starfox team with Falco, Peppy's daughter, and one of Slippy's kids.
To be honest, this is actually the first Star Fox game I have ever played; not to mention the only Star Fox game I have so far.
I would love to see a remaster of this game so much
This was, and still is my favorite GameCube game
This was by far my fav star fox game
HeyThereVader I'm the same with you aside the fact it's the only star fox game I played
HeyThereVader wish it was longer was my problem with it, like maybe add at least 5 more levels to it
This game was incredible with an AMAZING amount of features. Best star fox game made.
I loved the voice acting so you can hate all you want
I’m glad you agree
The voices were good. The lines scripted for the actors were weird. I mean, bad voices? Just play Star Fox Adventures
Yeah man stand your ground! Im with ya Camren penn
Everything in that game is still great, but it will be even better if it not were too short
Star Fox Assault was better than Zero!
I remember playing Star Fox Adventures and when this came out it blew my mind haha especially when i saw Tricky all grown up!
1:37 A wild Volcarona appears!
No,, it's more like a venomoth
I think is a Naganadel, whatever, I think both Poipole and Naganadel are based of Aparoids
It's not a pokemon
@@tonygainsanderson8371 it's just a joke stupid
Does it look like a Pokémon to you?
This one had to be the darkest Starfox in the series. Parasitic lifeforms from times gone past, use of traumatic experience from said days in Peppy's mind, let alone the queen using Fox's dead father as bait.
Andrew in Assault is my favourite Star Fox character because of the way he just sucks at being evil!
Also...
UNCLE ANDROSS!
1:20😅
While nowhere near as iconic as the final fight with Andross in Star Fox 64/Lylat Wars, I still really like the final boss in this game, mainly because Fox doesn't have to fight it alone and it actually makes it feel like a true team effort! I'm hoping we'll see some more stuff like that in Star Fox Zero!
Comments that aged poorly
6:27 That was definitly a „f*ck“
This game’s multiplayer was crazy good, both in terms of dogfights and ground combat. If it had come out when online play was already popular, we’d probably still be playing this game.
Sniper rifles on Sargasso were nuts.
This game was good but it needed to be way longer with more levels. It also should have had a co-op story mode.
The longer story yes, but Co op ehhhhhh it would be cool but a bit ahead for the time.
just someone Co-op would have been possible, it had split-screen versus.
I am pretty sure namco was strapped in terms of resources.
This game was criminally underrated and the multiplayer was so good.
I forgot how terrifying a concept the Aparoids were. Geez.
Even when Andrew goes down, he always pulls out the classic 64 style "Uncle Andross" voiceline, I'm not saying the voice is the same but the diologue is the same words

0:43. "What's this? An Andross wanna-be?" LOL.
Ooooooooooh!!! *ROASTED!!!*
W-Watch Your Mouth! I'll Show You!
Este era el camino que debía seguir nintendo para hacer un starfox.
I like how oikonny boss battle is a reference to the Andross's boss battles
I still have this game on disc, good memories with this one!
dude this game was so fucking awesome, I remember playing it on my Gamecube and I was so engaged with the story, yeah playing it now it was short but you gotta give it to a 2005 game to have a storyline and some very engaging character clashes
Also check out my Star Fox Zero boss rush!:) ua-cam.com/video/BeLIL2A8Jj8/v-deo.html
hmm....i think about Fox's Dad what happend with him Do you know?
Emir Maier he was killed by andross I think
Do you know something rude in 6:26?
You don't count Mission 8 - Missiles as bosses?
(They use boss theme as BGM)
Yeah, exactly.
Take away the music and it’s not really a boss, just another mission. The “boss” music really just serves to accentuate the gravity of the situation, not backdrop a face off in this scenario. Look at the missiles and compare that to every other boss encounter. Take away their BGM and you can still see “boss battle” in the scenario. Missiles is just a mission that needed a bgm to convey urgency and high stakes, instead of making another track, the basic boss music did that. Epic music does not a boss make in this case.
"Dang!"

Loved how he said it 😂
