I still really want to play Star Fox Assault, despite what everyone has said about it I really liked what I played at EB a year or two ago.

You bought Sonic Heroes. I bet you even bought Shadow the Hedgehog when I wasn't looking, didn't you??

I was playing Starfox Command for a couple of days last week and kinda liked it. I wouldn't say it's excellent (at least not so far) but it's probably something I'll pick up when it comes to the US. The strategy bits are generally simple, but there are some parts that'll make you think. And the action parts I actually like quite a bit. The stylus control works pretty well. Though it's stupid that there are touch-screen buttons for loop-the-loops and u-turns--they should've had stylus gestures instead, 'cause as-is you have to look down at the touch screen every time you want to execute one of these maneuvers. I also wish there were arrows that pointed to the enemies you need to kill. Trying to track them on the lower screen while simultaneously flying on the top screen is a real pain in the butt at times (especially when tracking the faster, more agile crafts).

But the control and shooting are good enough that I had fun with the game. For a brief video explanation of the game, check out the second segment of IGN Weekly Ep. 20 (just after the Dead Rising piece). I dunno why Fran narrated it instead of Craig (I don't think Fran got to play much--all the direct-feed video is me playing, which is why I had to play it last week).

Nah, I never got around to it. If I can find it on the dirt cheap I'll give it a go, though.

Shadow was better than Sonic Heroes. A flawed game, sure, but let's call it like it is.

Buddha?

I got chewed out on another forum for saying it didn't look worth buying at full price. I was called biased and yelled at for slandering the games good name, even though all I said was the games are too short for 35$. The ass wipe did the same thing when I said deep labyrinth looked like ass water, I love nintendo fanboys.

It's 30 bucks this week at both CC and BB.

Figured it would be 35$ since most of the other first party nintendo stuff is.
