Wanted to see how the quality would look like now. The old video: • Star Fox Adventures: F... Dat ghetto camera. Did a little better with dodging the fired projectiles surprisingly. Contact me : Skype - kriskwx
I enjoyed this game.. but even after all these years after beating this game, I could never get closure as to why the game developers decided that you don't fight Scales.
+Andrew Faria In the soundtrack you can access in the game, there is an unused song that was probably meant to be Scales' fight song. You can tell it from the similarities with the "Scales' galleon fight" from the beginning of the game.
@@justaregularguy3827 Not only that, but Starfox Zero basically wrote out the entire Adventure game. On their way to Corneria they make mention of leaving Suarian. No mention of Krazoa, Krystal, Sharpclaw, Scales nor Andross. Adventures was meant to be a continuation after the Lylat Wars, no idea what Assault was. But with Zero, both games are now noncanon.
@@Tienhamir100 No idea what the two of you are on about. Adventures was a completely different property, Dinosaur Planet, before at the last second Miyamoto came in and told Rare to slap Starfox on it. Considering the loads of unused content pertaining to the old story, and how out-of-nowhere the Andross fight comes, + The Microsoft buyout looming in the horizon at the time, it's most likely they just didn't have time nor enough reason to care about giving him a final fight anymore when Andross was gonna upstage him and they were busy enough throwing in all the Starfox content.
I'm pretty sure Rare wanted to give Scales an actual boss fight, but they just didn't have enough time. I heard that because of Microsoft's purchase of Rare, the development for StarFox Adventures got rushed and they had to wrap things up pretty quick.
Neil Joseph Consolacion True. If you get enough maze cheat coins, you start getting fortunes instead of cheats. They tell you what is to come in the future. It foreshadows Falco returning to assist you and it also has Fox's dad telling him to push on and to believe in himself. That even though life has shadows, he has to remember that every shadow is possible because of light.
I'm pretty sure that nobody bought the whole "Krazoa God" thing. Especially since by that time, Fox has become an expert on all things Krazoa, and they haven't mentioned a Krazoa God even once.
I think he really did die. Most likely he was already in contact with the spirits and with the planet even before he died. Even if not, it's already shown that even his spirit is capable of shitting around in the universe ("Farewell dear Falco" comic, Star Fox Command)
It seems Falco in this game is playing a similar role that Fox’s dad James McCloud played in Star Fox 64. In fact, I think the fact that Falco is wearing sunglasses when he first arrives is possibly a reference to him playing a James McCloud type of role.
It's super jarring going straight from the 64 Andross fight to this one. In Star Fox 64, Andross's face is very animated, expressive, and he's always tracking you with his eyes. Here, aside from his initial roar, he literally just stares into space while mouth-breathing, which makes his attacks feel very nonchalant.
I know right. Here it barley looks like he’s even trying to swat at you considering how fast his hands move. In 64 they moved with great speed and at times were tough to dodge.
Jerrid120 I’ve never played Command but I’ve heard a lot of negative things said about it regarding it’s story and the treatment of it’s characters. I just like to pretend the series ended with Assault and move on until a proper game comes along that builds upon what the first three games established.
Dylan Cuthbert is making a new Starfox game that takes place in the middle of Command, but there’s no endings, the storyline will be changed, I think, and hopefully Krystal and Fox will rekindle their love and relationship after he takes a bullet for her to show her how wrong he was in forcing her off the team and Krystal is reinstated back.
"Now you must face me!" I guess not...? Scales just decides to obey that random voice and apparently kill himself because... reasons. The entire game they were building up to the final confrontation with Scales and they don't even let you smack him around a bit with the staff. I was actually okay with Andross being the final bad guy and Scales being an underling to him, but Andross just comes out of nowhere. I think an abridged version of the conversation between Scales and Andross would be something like this: "Give Fox the Krazoa Spirit!" "Why should I listen to you?!" "Because I'm invisible and I'm telling you what to do!" "Okay..."
Andross: General Scales, you are no longer use to me. Scales: Who are you? Andross: Don't fight Fox, because you're part of Microsoft now, I'm licensed to Nintendo so I have the only right. Scales: But I've been waiting to fight him since the beginning of the game, I will fight him like it or not. Andross: You are not programmed to fight him anyway. Scales: *tries to attack him, he can't* NO! Andross: Now give him the final Krazoa Spirit and die. Scales: You are gonna regret this Microsoft!
@@arceusthecreator9746 lmao sure and I bet you like call of duty and fortnite as well? Funny how Microsoft takes the two in and immediately makes their newest game crap.
General Scales is similar to Zant from Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess. Both tyrannical beings were given power after they (or in Scales case his tribe) were denied it, by the previously defeated main antagonists on their respective series. Both are used as pawns for their masters resurrection who return just after they meet their downfall. The main difference however is you get to kick Zants ass, while Andross betrays and kills Scales for you forcing you to fight him instead. Another difference is that Zant is clearly aware of Ganondorf and even hints that he returned during his battle with Link, Scales on the other hand ironically (as shown here) is totally unaware of Andross despite serving/being associated with him.
He gives you bombs for the battle and that's something. Also you should read the manga "Farewell, Beloved Falco". It explains why he left and the manga is canon and takes place between 64 and Adventures.
Este juego fue mi infancia, es un juegazo. La música, el carisma de los personajes, el mundo abierto wow 😍 ojala lo saquen en algun port para switch aunque lo dudo :(
The way his face just completely melts the moment his health reaches zero, and then he just unceremoniously explodes is perhaps one of the most bizarre things I've ever seen in a video game.
@@onepieceguy2659Doesn't Assault count? It does take place a year after Adventures. At least the fangame Star Fox: Event Horizon is expanding more on Sauria in hopes of making it fit within the Star Fox universe. You should definitely check it out!
Such a childhood memory! I remember this bossfight! It was so challenging at first but everything leading up to it was awesome! The tension, the music and the shock that it was Andross the whole time!
Scales was always the most badass video game villain to me. His end is just... erk. But I always wondered: did he die when releasing the spirit? Or maybe he just collapsed? I never really understood.
+Frname i think is best not to ask for it. this game's ending was so rushed you can notice there was absolutely no boss fight with Scales and Andross wasnt even supposed to be part of the whole story, so you will notice A LOT of plotholes in the ending. and it was rushed because Rare had no more dev time for this game due to miyamoto wanting the game to be released on Gamecube and as a Star Fox game instead of N64 and as a title totally unrelated to Star Fox. not to mention by the time this game was developing for GC, Microsoft was already buying Rare, so they no longer cared about how the game was being developed.
Notice the Sharpclaw at 11:48 Holding up the Belt of General Scales. My guess is this sharpclaw IS General Scales, after he gave up on his desire for power. As andross said, "Your desire for power overwhelmed you and blinded you to the truth inside."
@@yoshinari3679 Yeah likely meaning that Scales was a victim of his own power that is what happens when you let power go to your head. I do love how the Sharpclaws cheer for Fox. That's actually really cute.
@@yoshinari3679 I always thought that sharp claw was just holding the belt up. I was like “screw this guy he slaved us around.” so as fox was passing by and his plane, he could see that they were raising his belt up as a victory kind of like good riddance
The GameCube era was a unique aesthetic period for Nintendo, there was always this combination of ancient temples and ruins mixed with Sci-Fi high technology.
For anyone disappointed that they didn't get to fight Scales, just so you know it's Microsoft's fault that why Scales boss fight wasn't in here. Nintendo was going to put in the Scale boss fight but couldn't because they ran out of time due to the fact Microsoft buying out Rare so they had to wrap up the game with any final boss they could think of so that's why.
Actually, it's Nintendo's fault. If Miyamoto hadn't decided to shoehorn Star Fox into Dinosaur Planet in the first place, we'd have gotten to fight Scales as a Sabre or Krystal, but instead we got this shit
@@shadekerensky3691 People literally never shut up about Banjo and Kazooie, and yet, the closest we got the a sequal is the fucking Nuts and Bolts game.
Star Fox 64 voice acting was actually really good. Then again, games back in the 90s that Ive played and got used to were Resident Evil 1 and Perfect Dark. Compared to the Star Fox 64 had amazing voice acting.
I love how Andross' Boss Theme for this game is a combined heavily-altered remix of his Standard and Brain form themes from Star Fox 64. David Wise did a phenomenal job adapting them. It's a tragedy that Scales didn't get a proper boss fight after he was established as the central narrative antagonist of the game, but the fact that this game had to rush through the final stages of development before Microsoft bought them out (to hear it from the team, when Shigeru inquired if they were interested in turning Dinosaur Planet into a Star Fox game, they were gung-ho on the idea, but due to the amount of reworking required, they decided to move development from the soon-to-be-discontinued N64 over to the GameCube. About a year later, Microsoft approached with an offer Nintendo couldn't afford to counter in buying out Rare completely, which forced an artificial deadline on the game) is a perfectly understandable reason why. It's apparent in the fact that the Microsoft buyout was literally completed the day after Adventures released.
Don't care what anyone says, I love this game. It may not be "Star Fox," but it was so unique compared to the other games in the series. But, only Star Fox game I hate is Command, so I love all the Star Fox games.
When the Boise Police Department officer jumps into his patrol car and go into fight mode with the powerful boss who is grading Krystal so she won't leave
I only just noticed that the SharpClaw grunts took Scales' belt off after he gave Fox the Krazoa spirit. I was always confused why they had it in the ending.
I like to imagine like the other tribes, the Sharpclaws were enslaved and had no choice but to abide under Scale's rule as his "loyal" henchmen and army (which theoretically makes more sense for the celebration party at the end)
This game should've stayed as Dinosaur Planet and they should've instead made a Star Fox game that was a Gamecube release that expanded upon Star Fox 64. The way they handled Andross just kind of urks me, especially since the villain you followed the entire time was pushed aside at the very end. They could've done SOMETHING for his boss. Granted, I don't hate this game. In fact I liked it as a kid, and even now I still enjoy it. It's just after playing Star Fox 64 I wish that this game had more elements of what made Star Fox so cool. Also, where in the hell did Falco come from? They just pushed him in last minute just like Andross. Also, Slippy's voice makes me wanna shit myself. I'm glad he doesn't play a major role.
The game itself is really good. The "no fight for you, scales" sucked balls (Seriously, just beat him and THEN make Andross appear. Atleast you beat his ass personally) and it wasn't really a Starfox game... I loved it nevertheless. A great Adventure game and I'd love a sequal...But that won't happen :/
Then play Starfox Assault on the Gamecube. I love that game. It manages to balance out Arwing, Landmaster, and on foot sections almost perfectly in my opinion.
Eratin Person Then again, maybe the voice isn't all that unfitting. In the N64 game, he wanted to rule Lylat, his deep sounding voice portrayed a calm and in charge tyrant. Here, for some reason, he just wants to destroy it. Guess the monstrish voice is fitting in that regard?
this may have not been the starfox game everyone wanted but i love it! have such a nostalgia for this game. There were several games from the Gamecube era that not many liked but i did.
Stephen Byrne Because he was bored with the lack of missions the Star Fox team was getting (which is also why the arwing in this game looks so beat up). And I think he and Fox had a bit of a falling out too in the comic
Whether or not it's a starfox game, who actually cares? I don't understand the obsession with having to have every single game in a franchise the same. Either way, this game was amazing and still for me after over 10 years, is enjoyable.
I love the game too but it has cons. The dinosaur guy who need to push in a hole is hard af, dinosaurs sleep at night so you have no choice to wait but it's still a fun game.
@@thepeskyone I get that. But every game has flaws. My favourite games have things that really piss me off even to this day, but I guess a lot of my love for this game comes from nostalgia
Would've been great if you fought General Scales first, then fought the Krazoa side of Andross on foot using the staff, then Andross reveals himself and you fight him in the Arwing in the final phase of the boss battle. Botched opportunity to have an epic 3 phase boss battle. Still a good game tho
Lol the final act was literally the biggest fail of this game, Not only do we get robbed of a could be very badass boss battle with General Scales but Andross the main antagonist of this franchise is just slapped into this game at the very last minute with no signs of him being present.
The game good yes but the ending sucks. I really wish Microsoft didn't buy them out (It was due to being bought out that they couldn't makes Scales a boss). I also blame Nintendo and Rare for letting it happen. All three have there reason for doing it (In Nintendo case, not doing it) but it all just blows in the end
MrSnakearter let me tell you something at least you had a boss i know some games that are worse and did not have a boss like mass effect 3 and some halo's and alien: colonial marines, the boss was just there to look pretty, sure general scales was to do that but the twist ending is what really caught my eyes, hey i thought i defeated Andross in the last game Starfox 64, oh well he's back now and the level of difficulty as a child it is what made me think that starfox adventures deserved at least an 8 out of 10
Seeing this video brings good memories and I don’t mind that andross was the final boss but really wish they could’ve give General Scales a really good fight vs Fox 😢
As much as I love this game, I really wish they had more time to put in a Scales boss and then use Drakor as they were originally going to instead of Andross as the final boss.
Star Fox Adventures was a good game that tried to rebrand itself as more than an on-rail space shooter, and its failure lead to Star Fox Zero, a stale on-rail space shooter that was more of the same with nothing ground breaking added. There, I said it.
Two things. First, what the hell's up with Andross's voice? Was his old voice actor unavailable? Second...I know this has been said multiple times, but the "fight" with Scales was a huge disappointment. If you were going to reintroduce Andross you could have had us fight Scales halfway throughout the game, and THEN bring in Andross. Imo, Andross isn't a villain you just throw in at the last minute, I feel like he deserves more respect than that. They could've revealed his nature as the main villain, have us go through several more stages in space this time (and much longer ones too) and then fight him. But, seeing as how this wasn't even meant to BE a Starfox game in the first place, I guess my expectations are set too high....
it wasn't ectaully because of the fact it became a starfox game: the dev studio was being bought by microsoft and time ran out. that's why many thing were scrapped.
@Nick M (OP) (Re: Voices) Literally every character returning from Star Fox 64 got new voices. That said, the voices of Peppy, Slippy, Falco, and Fox all came back from _Super Smash Bros. Melee_
you could have fought andros ship...but no, you fought his giant head...in space...shooting rockets and lasers out of mouth and eyes. design only people of the 90ties can understand XD
I really hate how they just dropped Scales as a final boss and just shoehorned Andross in at the last minute. Such a great game just to be watered down out of nowhere
I know the details from Rare buyout and all. But from the time they were given i think they did an awesome job. They were rushed but still gave a decent suprise ending. When i first played this i was in shock when Andross appeared. It was like i was thrown back into starfox 64 with a serious shooting and equipment disadvantage, and i loved it! I was sweating and had chills as i battled Andross he was the LAST character i had expected to see. SO with all the drama going on i think they took what they had and STILL nailed it on a good final surprise, boss. He was NOT as easy as this video makes him seem lol.
A nice feature they should of done is that the scene when Andross first appeared was a lot more thought out with dialog and that his eyes actually followed the player.
I gotta say, after playing through this game in one sitting recently (you do some crazy shit when your net goes out...), I've gotta say, this game was... Really not as bad as everyone says it is. Sure, it didn't live up to the potential it should have had as either a proper Star Fox game or as its original incarnation as Dinosaur Planet, but as something that happened, it's still perfectly playable. Ground combat is fine, space combat is fun and intense at times, and the graphics are still nice to look at to this day. My only real, personal complaint was how easy it all felt. Wasn't enough hard difficulty to be had, even with Andross. It felt rushed at parts, no thanks to Rare's looming buyout at the time of development, there's some goofy dialogue and some hammy voice acting on top of that, and a curious fixation on the now-sexualized Krystal character (thanks, Rare) which causes some scenes to teeter on the fine line between humorous and awkward. Even in light of that, however, it's certainly a unique specimen, unlike any Star Fox game I've played... in a good way, oddly enough. The lack of focus on the flying sections made me look forward to them all the more, and value their presence in the game, even if they were there just to break up the gameplay for the sake of variety. In fact, I played Assault and 64 a day after, and felt myself becoming fatigued after a while with the constant, non-stop action. I know it's a matter of opinion, but I found myself enjoying the action in Adventures more, due to its pacing. Not to mention Dragon Rock, which was a whole action section in and of itself, going back to basics with the whole _"shoot the fuck out of everything that moves"_ gameplay Star Fox is known for, yet everyone seems to forget exists. Not to mention the pretty awesome King Red Eye boss, which plays host to some of the more memorable sequences in the game while having a nice touch of Jurassic Park to it at points. It may not be the game everyone hoped for, but it is what it is. It ain't perfect, it may not be traditional, but hell, it's far from the worst game out there, and even in light of its squandered potential, it's not impossible to enjoy it, even in an environment as pessimistic as the gaming community. *EDIT:* I loved the music in this game, too, personally. ;)
+Poe Ghost Dragon Rock was a FUCKIN PAIN IN THE ASS. That's why everyone seems to forget about it! That cursed cloudrunner should burn in hell. I home he died in Assoult.
Poe Ghost Im just replaying this game because its been years since I play it and wanted to remember stuff from it.The exploration is fun and the music is amazing but some parts of the story, voice acting, and dialogues are really stupid and corny lmao still a fun game
+Mudkip971 This game had a lot of corners cut. Even the animations look pretty stiff, even accounting for this being pretty much a 64 game moved to early GC.
Mudkip971 I never knew that Rare was cutting it so close. We could've had another Star Fox 2 if things were a day late. Then again, Star Fox 2 is finally seeing a release date, albeit in a limited format, so Adventures could have hung in limbo until the stars went out.
I remember playing the hell out of this game as a kid looking forward to the final boss battle against scales and then being disappointed that you don't actually fight him.

The only reason I think of is that because the ending in 64 where Fox destroys the decoy is cannon.
The technical canon is that Andross' consciousness survived and used the Krazoa to revive himself.

Won't happen, but it would be cool.
I'd say it would be awesome.
@@phantomthiefjoker939
General Scales would betray Wolf after getting what he wanted
This reveal blew my mind the first time I played the game. And to this day Star Fox Adventures is STILL one of the best games I ever played.
Still is. They need to do a follow up. God that would be so awesome
@@onepieceguy2659Doesn't Assault count? It does take place a year after Adventures. At least the fangame Star Fox: Event Horizon is expanding more on Sauria in hopes of making it fit within the Star Fox universe. You should definitely check it out!

this shouldn`t be as funny as it is...lmao
XD *dies*
Taco Bell aftermath reaction. Awsm!
Such a childhood memory! I remember this bossfight! It was so challenging at first but everything leading up to it was awesome! The tension, the music and the shock that it was Andross the whole time!
James Van Oss This game was my childhood
Without forgetting the surprise to see Falco!
Scales was always the most badass video game villain to me. His end is just... erk. But I always wondered: did he die when releasing the spirit? Or maybe he just collapsed? I never really understood.
+Frname i think is best not to ask for it. this game's ending was so rushed you can notice there was absolutely no boss fight with Scales and Andross wasnt even supposed to be part of the whole story, so you will notice A LOT of plotholes in the ending.
and it was rushed because Rare had no more dev time for this game due to miyamoto wanting the game to be released on Gamecube and as a Star Fox game instead of N64 and as a title totally unrelated to Star Fox. not to mention by the time this game was developing for GC, Microsoft was already buying Rare, so they no longer cared about how the game was being developed.
Notice the Sharpclaw at 11:48 Holding up the Belt of General Scales.
My guess is this sharpclaw IS General Scales, after he gave up on his desire for power.
As andross said, "Your desire for power overwhelmed you and blinded you to the truth inside."
@@yoshinari3679
Yeah likely meaning that Scales was a victim of his own power that is what happens when you let power go to your head.
I do love how the Sharpclaws cheer for Fox.
That's actually really cute.
@@yoshinari3679 general Scales"that Sharp claw is not me....at all"
@@yoshinari3679 I always thought that sharp claw was just holding the belt up. I was like “screw this guy he slaved us around.” so as fox was passing by and his plane, he could see that they were raising his belt up as a victory kind of like good riddance
That "I'VE BEEN LOOKIN FOR-WERD TO DIS DEEI, TO SEE YOU A- *GAIN,* FOX MCCLOUD" is so satisfying.

For anyone disappointed that they didn't get to fight Scales, just so you know it's Microsoft's fault that why Scales boss fight wasn't in here. Nintendo was going to put in the Scale boss fight but couldn't because they ran out of time due to the fact Microsoft buying out Rare so they had to wrap up the game with any final boss they could think of so that's why.
If this is true then add this to the list of reasons why I hate Microsoft and I wish they never got involved in the video game industry.
Actually, it's Nintendo's fault. If Miyamoto hadn't decided to shoehorn Star Fox into Dinosaur Planet in the first place, we'd have gotten to fight Scales as a Sabre or Krystal, but instead we got this shit
@@shadekerensky3691 then we'd have Microsoft with ANOTHER great francise with no sequels, adding Starfox means, at the very least, we still have this.
@@EeveeShadowBacon Never know, if Microsoft got Dinosaur Planet, it may have gotten a sequel if it was popular enough.
@@shadekerensky3691 People literally never shut up about Banjo and Kazooie, and yet, the closest we got the a sequal is the fucking Nuts and Bolts game.
I love how the voice acting for a game made in 2002 is significantly worse than the voice acting for a game made in 1997.
Star Fox 64 voice acting was actually really good. Then again, games back in the 90s that Ive played and got used to were Resident Evil 1 and Perfect Dark. Compared to the Star Fox 64 had amazing voice acting.
It’s because they’re all rareware staff and are trying desperately to hide their accents
man, this fight was hard as BALLS when i was a kid
...you made it look so easy
Took me months
Not as hard as the dinosaur guy that you have to spam a to push him in a holr
The ending is the most confusing and rushed part of the game. I don't know what the developers were thinking...
I love how Andross' Boss Theme for this game is a combined heavily-altered remix of his Standard and Brain form themes from Star Fox 64. David Wise did a phenomenal job adapting them.
It's a tragedy that Scales didn't get a proper boss fight after he was established as the central narrative antagonist of the game, but the fact that this game had to rush through the final stages of development before Microsoft bought them out (to hear it from the team, when Shigeru inquired if they were interested in turning Dinosaur Planet into a Star Fox game, they were gung-ho on the idea, but due to the amount of reworking required, they decided to move development from the soon-to-be-discontinued N64 over to the GameCube. About a year later, Microsoft approached with an offer Nintendo couldn't afford to counter in buying out Rare completely, which forced an artificial deadline on the game) is a perfectly understandable reason why. It's apparent in the fact that the Microsoft buyout was literally completed the day after Adventures released.
Don't care what anyone says, I love this game. It may not be "Star Fox," but it was so unique compared to the other games in the series.
But, only Star Fox game I hate is Command, so I love all the Star Fox games.
But command was great
The only reason we never got to fight General Scales is because Microsoft purchased RARE, forcing developers to wrap things up quicker than planned
This game came out when I was in preschool... i'm in 11th grade now... good times.... I was so hyped for the on foot aspect of a star fox game.

I only just noticed that the SharpClaw grunts took Scales' belt off after he gave Fox the Krazoa spirit. I was always confused why they had it in the ending.
I like to imagine like the other tribes, the Sharpclaws were enslaved and had no choice but to abide under Scale's rule as his "loyal" henchmen and army (which theoretically makes more sense for the celebration party at the end)
@@unclemogi
Yeah looks like they had enough of him being their abusive commander.
They even cheer for Fox too maybe they had some good in them.
Still all these years later Andross scares the shit out of me.
This game should've stayed as Dinosaur Planet and they should've instead made a Star Fox game that was a Gamecube release that expanded upon Star Fox 64. The way they handled Andross just kind of urks me, especially since the villain you followed the entire time was pushed aside at the very end. They could've done SOMETHING for his boss. Granted, I don't hate this game. In fact I liked it as a kid, and even now I still enjoy it. It's just after playing Star Fox 64 I wish that this game had more elements of what made Star Fox so cool. Also, where in the hell did Falco come from? They just pushed him in last minute just like Andross. Also, Slippy's voice makes me wanna shit myself. I'm glad he doesn't play a major role.
The game itself is really good.
The "no fight for you, scales" sucked balls (Seriously, just beat him and THEN make Andross appear. Atleast you beat his ass personally) and it wasn't really a Starfox game...
I loved it nevertheless. A great Adventure game and I'd love a sequal...But that won't happen :/
SirMalorak
You're right it really wasn't a real Star Fox game. That being said I enjoyed it as a kid and still think it was a good game.
Then play Starfox Assault on the Gamecube. I love that game. It manages to balance out Arwing, Landmaster, and on foot sections almost perfectly in my opinion.
I think it has an entertaining story and the characters have some pretty good lines here and there.
They are connected. Krystal and Tricky both appear in Assault.

I'll never get over how bad the end of this game was. Otherwise? THAT SNOWHORN RIDE MUSIC.
Wow, Andross sounds corny. I know he always had that evil deep voice but here, he just sounds silly.
Yah I thought it was just me.
Imagine if he had this voice in 64.
Eratin Person I honestly don't think he would have been as memorable.
MetroidJunkie2007 Yeah, definitely. I would've probably been like "What is this voice actor? Why is he this? No. No, stop."
Eratin Person Then again, maybe the voice isn't all that unfitting. In the N64 game, he wanted to rule Lylat, his deep sounding voice portrayed a calm and in charge tyrant. Here, for some reason, he just wants to destroy it. Guess the monstrish voice is fitting in that regard?
I always felt dissapointed when I reached Scales.
Well Blame Microsoft
For what?, Rare payed the price for to trust in microsponge.

"Huh. So she fires that thing as well as I do. Looks like I'm _not_ just shit at aiming! Sweet!"
You did an awesome job beating Andross here, it took me so many tries last time I played. Also, dat dying Andross face wobble.
this may have not been the starfox game everyone wanted but i love it! have such a nostalgia for this game. There were several games from the Gamecube era that not many liked but i did.
They brought Falco in NOW!?
Yes. NOW. AT THE END.
there is a comic called "Farewell, Beloved Falco", it explains why he is not here until the very end of the game
Professor Heavy That ain't Falco.
Rango Why did he leave?
Stephen Byrne Because he was bored with the lack of missions the Star Fox team was getting (which is also why the arwing in this game looks so beat up). And I think he and Fox had a bit of a falling out too in the comic
god this game need an HD rerelease. It'll never happen but damnit I can dream!
Whether or not it's a starfox game, who actually cares? I don't understand the obsession with having to have every single game in a franchise the same. Either way, this game was amazing and still for me after over 10 years, is enjoyable.
Good :D
I love the game too but it has cons. The dinosaur guy who need to push in a hole is hard af, dinosaurs sleep at night so you have no choice to wait but it's still a fun game.
@@thepeskyone I get that. But every game has flaws. My favourite games have things that really piss me off even to this day, but I guess a lot of my love for this game comes from nostalgia
Would've been great if you fought General Scales first, then fought the Krazoa side of Andross on foot using the staff, then Andross reveals himself and you fight him in the Arwing in the final phase of the boss battle. Botched opportunity to have an epic 3 phase boss battle. Still a good game tho
Andross looks so evil and awesome in this game it's almost a shame that they only used that design once
This game will always have my favorite Arwing design. It just looks so cool and more real with all the finer details.
Nobody expected Andross. And I loved it.
Lol the final act was literally the biggest fail of this game, Not only do we get robbed of a could be very badass boss battle with General Scales but Andross the main antagonist of this franchise is just slapped into this game at the very last minute with no signs of him being present.
Starfox 64+ Zelda Ocarina of Time= one awesome game!!!
The game good yes but the ending sucks. I really wish Microsoft didn't buy them out (It was due to being bought out that they couldn't makes Scales a boss). I also blame Nintendo and Rare for letting it happen. All three have there reason for doing it (In Nintendo case, not doing it) but it all just blows in the end
MrSnakearter let me tell you something at least you had a boss i know some games that are worse and did not have a boss like mass effect 3 and some halo's and alien: colonial marines, the boss was just there to look pretty, sure general scales was to do that but the twist ending is what really caught my eyes, hey i thought i defeated Andross in the last game Starfox 64, oh well he's back now and the level of difficulty as a child it is what made me think that starfox adventures deserved at least an 8 out of 10
Ernesto Chang Sorry to burst your bubble but this is Nintendo. Rule number 1) always find a way to bring back your villain.
@MrSnakearter That's a lame rule. I just wish they put that old tradition to rest already.
Andross may have a funny voice but he has a scary look.
Seeing this video brings good memories and I don’t mind that andross was the final boss but really wish they could’ve give General Scales a really good fight vs Fox 😢
As much as I love this game, I really wish they had more time to put in a Scales boss and then use Drakor as they were originally going to instead of Andross as the final boss.
Star Fox Adventures was a good game that tried to rebrand itself as more than an on-rail space shooter, and its failure lead to Star Fox Zero, a stale on-rail space shooter that was more of the same with nothing ground breaking added.
There, I said it.
I still love this game so much
Two things. First, what the hell's up with Andross's voice? Was his old voice actor unavailable? Second...I know this has been said multiple times, but the "fight" with Scales was a huge disappointment. If you were going to reintroduce Andross you could have had us fight Scales halfway throughout the game, and THEN bring in Andross. Imo, Andross isn't a villain you just throw in at the last minute, I feel like he deserves more respect than that. They could've revealed his nature as the main villain, have us go through several more stages in space this time (and much longer ones too) and then fight him.
But, seeing as how this wasn't even meant to BE a Starfox game in the first place, I guess my expectations are set too high....
Yeah, I know, that's why I said my expectations were probably set too high because it wasn't meant to be a starfox game lol.
it wasn't ectaully because of the fact it became a starfox game: the dev studio was being bought by microsoft and time ran out. that's why many thing were scrapped.
@Nick M (OP)
(Re: Voices)
Literally every character returning from Star Fox 64 got new voices. That said, the voices of Peppy, Slippy, Falco, and Fox all came back from _Super Smash Bros. Melee_
Nick M That’s picky mane, quit whining
The hidden sound files say quite alot about what this game was going for.
you could have fought andros ship...but no, you fought his giant head...in space...shooting rockets and lasers out of mouth and eyes. design only people of the 90ties can understand XD
4:33 Did he really tried to hit him with the stick being so far ? 😅
I’m sorry but Andross’ scream and the way his lips were flapping all over always looked hilarious to me when I saw that the first time 😂
This looks like Foodfight
It'd be fun to see this game remastered with an actual fight against General Scales
Stairfax Temperatures!
Hes definitely in love with Krystal I'm waiting for the day they kiss
and thus rule 34 was created
Out of all the times I played it I never noticed that fox had the staff at the final cut scene
I really hate how they just dropped Scales as a final boss and just shoehorned Andross in at the last minute. Such a great game just to be watered down out of nowhere
Spend all god damn game building up to fight Scales then it takes a complete u-turn and suddenly we get Jamaican Andross?
oh hello childhood, nice to see you again
Really takes you back to the simple elegance of adventure games while I was growing up
"Fox's temperature is rising." Hint, hint, Krystal.
Fox want dat floofy Krystal.....BOOTY
Come on, he's just shy, like Slippy said.
and then the ending was cut off because furries exist
Turn into a giant face and shoot stuff out of your mouth. Those tactics worked so well last time didn't they, Andross?
I know the details from Rare buyout and all. But from the time they were given i think they did an awesome job. They were rushed but still gave a decent suprise ending. When i first played this i was in shock when Andross appeared. It was like i was thrown back into starfox 64 with a serious shooting and equipment disadvantage, and i loved it! I was sweating and had chills as i battled Andross he was the LAST character i had expected to see. SO with all the drama going on i think they took what they had and STILL nailed it on a good final surprise, boss. He was NOT as easy as this video makes him seem lol.
Andross sounds like Rafiki!
One of my favourite games because it's the first one that introduces Krystal
The first time I played this game, little did I know that Andross and Falco were going to make a surprise appearance by the very end.
Somehow Andross returned
"Now.. you must face me!---..EHHRGHH" lmao. Scales was just a basic enemy all along.
A nice feature they should of done is that the scene when Andross first appeared was a lot more thought out with dialog and that his eyes actually followed the player.
I gotta say, after playing through this game in one sitting recently (you do some crazy shit when your net goes out...), I've gotta say, this game was...
Really not as bad as everyone says it is.
Sure, it didn't live up to the potential it should have had as either a proper Star Fox game or as its original incarnation as Dinosaur Planet, but as something that happened, it's still perfectly playable. Ground combat is fine, space combat is fun and intense at times, and the graphics are still nice to look at to this day. My only real, personal complaint was how easy it all felt. Wasn't enough hard difficulty to be had, even with Andross.
It felt rushed at parts, no thanks to Rare's looming buyout at the time of development, there's some goofy dialogue and some hammy voice acting on top of that, and a curious fixation on the now-sexualized Krystal character (thanks, Rare) which causes some scenes to teeter on the fine line between humorous and awkward. Even in light of that, however, it's certainly a unique specimen, unlike any Star Fox game I've played... in a good way, oddly enough.
The lack of focus on the flying sections made me look forward to them all the more, and value their presence in the game, even if they were there just to break up the gameplay for the sake of variety. In fact, I played Assault and 64 a day after, and felt myself becoming fatigued after a while with the constant, non-stop action. I know it's a matter of opinion, but I found myself enjoying the action in Adventures more, due to its pacing.
Not to mention Dragon Rock, which was a whole action section in and of itself, going back to basics with the whole _"shoot the fuck out of everything that moves"_ gameplay Star Fox is known for, yet everyone seems to forget exists. Not to mention the pretty awesome King Red Eye boss, which plays host to some of the more memorable sequences in the game while having a nice touch of Jurassic Park to it at points.
It may not be the game everyone hoped for, but it is what it is. It ain't perfect, it may not be traditional, but hell, it's far from the worst game out there, and even in light of its squandered potential, it's not impossible to enjoy it, even in an environment as pessimistic as the gaming community.
*EDIT:* I loved the music in this game, too, personally. ;)
+Poe Ghost Dragon Rock was a FUCKIN PAIN IN THE ASS. That's why everyone seems to forget about it! That cursed cloudrunner should burn in hell. I home he died in Assoult.

Adventures will always be the best game ever 😍😍😍😃😃😃😂😂😂😊😊😊😊😊
Poe Ghost Im just replaying this game because its been years since I play it and wanted to remember stuff from it.The exploration is fun and the music is amazing but some parts of the story, voice acting, and dialogues are really stupid and corny lmao still a fun game
very satisfying to watch you playing.
Love this game or hate it, ya can't deny this is a great final boss battle. Lot's of thought put into it.
I was so happy when Falco showed up.
Me too. I Love You Falco Lombardi!!! 😍🥰💙
Notice how Fox has the staff behind his back at the end. lol Rare you had one job!
+Mudkip971 Quality gaming at its finest amirite.
+Mudkip971 This game had a lot of corners cut. Even the animations look pretty stiff, even accounting for this being pretty much a 64 game moved to early GC.
***** I don't blame them. They released this game the day they were officially bought by Microsoft.
Mudkip971 I never knew that Rare was cutting it so close. We could've had another Star Fox 2 if things were a day late.
Then again, Star Fox 2 is finally seeing a release date, albeit in a limited format, so Adventures could have hung in limbo until the stars went out.
I remember playing the hell out of this game as a kid looking forward to the final boss battle against scales and then being disappointed that you don't actually fight him.
This game deserves the Metroid prime remake treatment
8:12 They could've atleast synced the subtitles -.-
Am I the only one who likes Andross's voice in this game? Cause I thought it sounded fitting.
