[@cThreep]

"I can't believe I lost to this SCUUUMMMMM!!" haha now THAT brought back some memories!

[@jonathanakerele8006]

+C-Threep Sorry to jet, but I'm in a hurry!

[@BoshMind]

Peppy: Quick Fox! Do a barrel-roll! Fox: What? Peppy:Do a barrel-roll! Fox:Why would I- Peppy: DO A F@#ING BARREL-ROLL!!!!!!!!

[@ThyASS]

Mark I just love your narrations - especially their style :-) and the sense of humor you bring into each video. It just makes me look forward to every single new review. You are AWESOME. Thank you for keeping me entertained these past few years. Thumbs up. :-)

" First punch... in your teeth! ! This Starfox have a stunner punch! And it strikes the nose or the plexus of the player! The technological leap is unquantifiable ! Even a 32-bit ( from the regiments Sony and Sega ) will be stunned by seeing the game! Let's just say it's the most breathtaking and mind blowing 3D-scale shooter that a console has ever hosted, a true technical marvel, amazing and mastered! " Super Power Magazine. Issue 47. June, 1997.

[@stevenormandin2448]

Incredible and perfect game right there!!!So much memories!!!

[@Jerry4050]

Thumbs up for adding the "Do a Barrel Roll" scene, man I miss this game so much I might get a 3DS for just Star fox 64

[@x44magnum]

Loved this game as a kid, my mom use to play it allll the time when I was at school, sad to admit she was way better than me.

[@briank8571]

ur mom had you kind of young. sorry i couldn't be there to see you grow up.

[@hardcorgamer007]

one of the best games 'ive ever played

[@Rukunetsu]

One of my FAV Games EVER.

[@Yamtendo]

Congratz on 2,000 videos Mark! This game rocks.

[@Doommaster1994]

After hearing the names Fox McCloud and Wolf O'Donnell, I knew this game really took place in Ireland.

[@Hamm3rstr1k3]

Space Ireland

[@ProtoMario]

When I put this game in I cant help but do a barrel roll for several hours.

[@PeacefulEndowment]

I got this for Christmas one year as a kid. I played for hour and hours. Two thumbs up

[@TheTech660]

Best Damn Game I've PLAYED in this console back in 97!!!

[@39262]

this game will never age... still one of the best... like to see any new game try to be this awesome!

[@pedrojavierish]

My childhood 😭😪😥.

[@ClassicsShow]

2,000! awesome! Also, great review- this is one of my all-time favoite games!

[@gamefreakblog]

Great review my friend. I love this game. Probably my favourite on the N64. Like you, i'm looking forward to the 3DS version, that should be epic.

[@shadegirl3thetrophyhunter899]

"Whats wrong? Come a little closer!" my fav line!

[@harrylks]

I remember how I thought the lag you get from explosions and stuff are actually dramatic slow-mo effects.

[@Obi-WanKannabis]

Would you Kindly do a barrel roll? 2 references in one sentence Mark never ceases to amaze me

[@bullsfan2021]

The sound track + dialogue/voice acting really make this game.

[@toniv77]

I'm pleasantly surprised that CGR would do an N64 game as its 200th video! You should do more N64 games! :-)

[@lylatfox4]

@Ketorulz if im not mistaken i tnk they used the starfox assault setup for the VC version

[@videogamer002]

is the 2000 video mark the reason for the super special review?

[@maxwellb7305]

Back when anthropomorphic foxes were cool

[@kencoleman5007]

+Meme Boy They still are.

[@OtterloopB]

@@kencoleman5007 Not since furries, man. Not since furries.

[@kencoleman5007]

@@OtterloopB Furries existed before even SNES Star Fox. The days of Disney's Robin Hood, X-Men's Hepzibah, Jellicle Cats, Thundercats, and Tiny Toon Adventures. People were Furries even before they started attending conventions. Even before they dawned fursuits. Heck, have you ever read "Where the Wild Things Are"? Maurice Sendak was onto something.

[@PortableMediaReviews]

This game pretty well sums up my entire childhood.

[@bluebelt224]

I remember this game so well, it was one of my favorite N64 game!

[@Bermondseybob]

I'd forgotten how good this game looked!

[@BTAL1ama]

I still find it hilarious that I saw this right after playing a game of Star Fox 64. Best. Coincidence. Ever

[@zerofitz]

Thank you so much I was wracking my brain trying to remember what that thing from Star Trek the movie was called.

[@KatzOhki]

This game had a lot of meaning to me when I was a kid. I found the rumble pak outside in the grass of my neighbor's front lawn and traded some other games to get this game. I always took the difficult path because KAT was my favorite character.

[@michaelpisciuneri]

do you need the pak to save on this game cause i cant save on this game for some reason

[@garfiduper5822]

"would you kindly do a barrel roll?" Biofox??

[@DogOfHades]

"A Fox chooses, a Dog obeys"

[@garfiduper5822]

in the end it turns out slippy was the enemy the whole time!

[@viewtifuljoe99]

Just did a quick runthrough of this game on the n64 tonight and oh man is it still great. I love the 3ds remake but it's hard to beat holding the N64 controller in your hand and barrel rolling in combat.

[@Spense9]

Long have I awaited this game.

[@MrQi19]

i loved this game back then its also nice to go on classic game room and see a review with mark i hate those new guys at undertow

[@Arkiasis]

1:41 What about Conker's Bad Fur Day?

[@VINCEJisSONiCtheMC]

"NO, I refuse to help a talking frog" Lmao

[@tonxdumb]

how do u fight the robot on the cartridge cover

[@NukeA6]

I remember back in the late 90s when Star Fox 64 was my most wanted game even though I beat the game three times on my friend's cartridge. Years later, I finally own it via virtual console. Sure it's very easy to beat now but it has a little "magic" that I could never experience in 99% of games today.

[@bio0link]

[@Rendeezy]

It was very difficult to get a "Mission Complete"/Ribbon (not "Mission Accomplished") on the Harbor Level. Killing 400 enemies was a pain.

[@Kytseo]

Try an aerial maneuver in which the aircraft does a complete circle on its latitudinal axis by going upwards, looping downwards, and returning to its original direction!

[@dezm101]

Im with u mark, cant wait to get my hands on the 3DS version! great review

[@Mongovi]

I was five when i first saw my dad and my friend in PA playing this. I was afraid of the cross-eyed rabbit (Peppy) and the boss on Solar, so I never played. I turned ten and i tried playing it with my friend and I liked it. Finally, I'm fifteen and I just beat the game 2 weeks ago, and it's one of the best games ever.

[@XanderCrease]

It was called Lylat Wars in the UK, the name Star Fox was already taken.

[@SmashLuigiFan1]

congrats on the 2000th video

[@MELANIE1001]

speaking in jive = epic movie callback...thanks for a massive laugh out loud

[@-Matt_O96-]

I hope in Star fox 64 3D we can have the option to Mute Slippy

[@JunkieFame]

2000 videos full of awesomeness. :3 GOGOGOGO MARK

[@robvas]

Is this recorded weird or was the game running at a high frame rate for a N64 game? Looks fast

[@SwornHeresy]

@BlazeArceus777 You got that from smosh didn't you?

[@DarksouIjah]

I forgot how great this game looked when it came out.

[@DragnSly]

ah, my childhood. games like this are why I'm glad I opted for the N64 instead of the PS1.

[@AnarchicKhajiit]

I am sad i sold this game :( DO you know how hard it is to find? Anyways there is always the 3ds version.

[@Gigabomber]

Thank you, thank you, thank you for this review!

[@sandwichesgood]

i remember when this came out. my favorite game ever

[@hylianfelldragon1308]

Played this game about 2 years ago on the 3DS, loved it.

[@MegaDJTXZ]

My most favorite game of all time.

[@thevideogamenerd100]

"Should I do a barrel roll?" Mark, you should always do a barrel roll

[@Cabooseified]

just seeing the game cartridge makes me want to play it.

[@morfinesommers]

I still don't get all the complains about the N64 controller, is my favourite of all time and the PS controllers i completely hate.

[@randyej2pr]

Picked this up today at my local game store for 13 bucks. Worth every penny.

[@edhc44]

I love it. I managed to get all medals on expert when I was 13 or 14, a feat that is likely to take a huge effort if I wanted to repeat...

[@Palpus_X]

I looved the game back in the day :D

[@KetwunsGamingPad]

I will add this to my 3ds collection. Whilst I do have the original, a new version is always nice. Anything to relive the times in a new way. I can imagine it being even smoother, and nicer visuals. Using the accelerometer will be fun for a bit as well. One can always go back to traditional controls, so it's good for everyone. The multiplayer additions look awesome by the way. Nothing better than being a Skype face to replace Slippy's and give sounder advice. Hate you Slippy.

[@LowEndPCGamer100]

this had a first person view mode, first time I played this I thought I was the real fox, it was awsome

[@mattmaberry]

The move conducted by using the L or R buttons is actually not a barrel roll. It would more accurately be described as an aileron roll.

[@allypezz]

Why was it called Lylat Wars in the UK?

[@aadarshbalireddy2939]

Nintendo of Europe thought it sounded better and changed it for the region.

[@Hai_da]

+Aadarsh Balireddy no, it was changes for europe due to legal reasons

[@Hai_da]

+Aadarsh Balireddy no, it was changes for europe due to legal reasons

[@spankrocketgaming294]

+Aadarsh Balireddy Lylat Wars does sound more epic than just Star Fox 64

[@Abulous1986]

This game my jaw drop as a SNES owning kid in the 90's. Made my jaw drop when I finally bought it! :) Question, why was is called Lylat Wars in the UK?

[@Otie64]

The name Star Fox had been trademarked, but was never used by whoever trademarked it.

[@endhymn]

Happy 2000!

[@Kevin-VP]

no 2000 special ?

[@shohmyoh]

I can't count how many times I've played this game. Even when I got medals for every level so I could see Fox wearing shades.

[@Rane1533]

@88skullkid Thank you, I honestly really enjoyed that and I really didn't expect google to program that.

[@brandon-butler]

I'm sure there is a way to use the ps2 controller on the N64 Mark ;)

[@zazakoolaid]

My first N64 game. Good times.

[@omarthecooltroll11]

my cousins offered me 5 free n64 games so i got Mortal Kombat 4, Mario Party 3, Donkey Kong 64, Rampage: World Tour, and Goldeneye. Did I do good?

[@fami5893]

such an amazing game. i've gotten so used to running the hard route i don't even remember half of these levels. x_x;

[@nintyfan1991]

@bigred2989 I agree. I even like the on foot shooting segments in Assault as well for the same reason.

[@OldSkooRebel]

This game is on my top 5 games of all time

[@BTAL1ama]

I was literally just playing this, the credits are on right now XD i went on youtube and went OMG THAT'S HILARIOUS!

[@JackDaScarecrow]

multiplayer mode was just race for the double lasers but that just made it all the more competitive

[@Valkian24]

Oh what a fantastic game it was. Can't wait for the 3DS version! :D

[@MrFungolfer]

One of the best game on the N64. Mark you should do a Battle mode against Angela.

[@CaptSnow3]

Is it me or has something been lost from this newer generation of video games? It's hard for me to describe since I can't put my finger on it but there is something missing that classics like this game had. Anyone know what I'm talking about?

[@bigred2989]

Star Fox 64 was all kinds of awesome. Some people may disagree with me but I liked the Landmaster and the Blue Marine. They broke up the monotony of always using the same vehicle all the time.

[@sk8erproductions1]

hey just wondering...does anyone know that one game for 64 that you were a car...and you had to blow up the other cars and you went around picking up weapons adding it on to your car ? someone help me out

[@Izak80]

What a great game it was and the graphics on a level atleast i hadnt seen at the time.

[@Fleury292929]

"pretty smooth flying Fox". "Falco, where ya headed"!? "I've found the target, try to keep up"! "Ahhh, so someone wants to play a game"! "You'll never defeat Androsssssssssss"!! Go through the waterfall Mark, geez.

[@Frank_D]

I loved Star Fox 64 in high school! It's the first game I ever beat without a cheating device, and possibly the only game on that list that isn't a JRPG.

[@SLRMC93]

Do an aerial maneuver in which the aircraft makes a complete rotation on its longitudinal axis while following a helical path, approximately maintaining its original direction!

[@lylatfox4]

@robbiekhan66 funny fact when the N64 came out it was known to have HD, the thing is, that HD is now below standard, and 480p became the new HD, now its standard, same will happen wit 720p and eventually 1080p

[@Spottedfeather]

I love Starfox 64. It, along with Castlevania 64, are my two favourite N64 games.

[@spiderjerusalem100]

This game still looks mint!

[@SporeFan01234]

oh god why did this game get lost in my house :c

[@Ziggletooth]

I got all the medals on each planet... I remember it from primary school, it unlocked an out of vehicle option in mp

[@GamesCharge]

What a coinsidence .. I just got through the game today!

[@ethinethin]

Star Fox 64? How did I miss Star Fox 2 through 63?

[@Flumpor]

Isn´t it called Lylat wars? At lest I have a copy that says Lylat wars.
