Dinosaur Planet. An ancient, unspoilt world, a primeval paradise... that is, until General Scales arrived on the scene and plunged everything into chaos.

 In this landmark gaming event, Rare and Nintendo join forces to chart the return of a classic Nintendo hero: Fox McCloud, best known as leader of the Star Fox team. The GameCube-exclusive Star Fox Adventures: Dinosaur Planet sees Fox leave the safety of his Arwing cockpit to investigate the Dinosaur Planet situation on foot, and his discovery of an amazing transformable staff is just the first chapter in a truly epic fantasy adventure.
Eight years on from the defeat of Andross chronicled in Star Fox 64, meet the Star Fox team members in their new roles: Slippy in Weapon Tech Development, supplying Fox with the latest gadgets and equipment; Peppy in Mission Support, always on hand to give directions; and Rob The Robot, supervising the mission in case you ever need extra supplies. Falco? Last seen jetting off in pursuit of a glamorous solo career...
 There are also plenty of new characters to meet, most importantly Krystal, a mysterious female captured by an ancient force known only as the Krazoa, and Prince Tricky, a friendly (but smart-mouthed) young triceratops destined to become Fox's new sidekick whether he likes it or not. In addition to these key figures, the planet is populated by a wide range of detailed dinosaurs ready to interact with Fox and hopefully help in any way they can.
Since the invasion Dinosaur Planet is a place fraught with danger, but Fox McCloud didn't get where he is today by being unprepared. Chief amongst his resources is the staff, which allows him to perform a range of hand-to-hand combat manoeuvres and can transform into more powerful configurations, but he can also rely on Slippy's technological support and of course his trusty Arwing, which he'll find himself returning to for the occasional flying mission. Then there are Tricky's unique Sidekick Skills, the importance of which shouldn't be understated (or you'll never hear the end of it).
 *Step out of Fox's Arwing and explore a vast, 3-D world lush in forestry, animals, puzzles and adventure.
* Learn the secrets of a mystical staff to fend off enemies and use it to cast a variety of spells.
* Battle enemies without skipping a beat with the game's intuitive targeting system that locks combat action.
* Traverse land and water or fight through space using Fox's trusty Arwing fighter.
* Build clever strategies to defeat huge boss enemies.
* Witness technologically advanced graphics with Rare's fur-rendering techniques and lavish effects including shimmering water, real-time lighting, depth-of-field blurring and a sophisticated facial animation system.
* Enjoy in-depth, life-like voice-overs and an atmospheric musical score that enhance this whimsical story.

| Okay, I've had this game for many years now, and it is beyond THE single best Gamecube game I've ever played! I especially liked that Fox ( man character ) had a watch that would allow him to talk to the people operating the ship and telling him what to do. It truly is a great game and i would definitely recommend it to anyone who owns the Gamecube or the Wii. To me, this game had absolutely no fa...[More] |

| Lets not skew opinions people. Star fox is a shooting game. This is not Star fox. Ever since I was four I have been a Star Fox fan. From the initial Super NES release, to its Star fox 64 sequel. They were fantastic shooters which provided excellent multiplayer (for that of the N64 version) and a decent plot. Star fox Adventures is an action game--pure and simple. In no way is that a bad thing, esp...[More] |

| This game is actually pretty good! So much in fact, that I might actually buy it again! Although the story and gameplay clearly matches that as the Legend of Zelda series, it is pretty good, and the graphics are awesome compared to the other Gamecube games. This games is actually quite enjoyable and is one of those games that you'll play again after you're done with it. The story is good, but it w...[More] |
