I decided to play Star Fox, one of (if not the?) first 3D games on console, and it's a space shooter that has aged significantly.. but is still a fun game in places.

The biggest stickler is of course, the graphical presentation and performance, it felt like it rarely managed to stay above about 10fps, and most objects aren't textured. However the ships and bosses are nicely detailed and look pretty good. You are just dealing with a 3D game on a console before 3D was really a thing. But despite a little bit of unresponsiveness I think the gameplay is satisfying. 3 different routes with varying difficulty, each giving you new levels to play, and levels 1 and 2 are a blast to play.

Bosses are the highlight, and are great to bring down with careful shots and dodging. Assuming you are able to hit your target as there is no aiming reticle.

Level 3 is just too hard though, with the very limited lives and continues the game gives you, and overall it doesn't feel worth it. Stick with routes 1 and 2.

It's an old game, and I can't really reccomend it to anyone who isn't willing to cast their minds back to an older mindset, but if you are, it's so short that it's kind of worth checking out. 5.5/10
