Star Fox: Shadows of Lylat

Lylat? What do you mean by Lylat? Oh, Lylat. Anyway, silly name aside, Star Fox: Shadows of Lylat is shaping up to be a rather brilliant and very freeware Starfox game, that will shockingly (probably, too) appear on the PC before the franchise hits Nintendo's very own Wii. The game -obviously a fan project- will be based on the classic and open-source Freespace 2 engine and, among other things, will feature:
  • 3 Arwings and lots of other vehicles
  • Tons of classic and brand new enemies
  • An allegedly intricate storyline set between Star Fox 64 and Star Fox Adventures.
  • Space missions (in space)
  • Ground missions (not in space)
  • Multiplayer
Quite promising really. Now, before clicking yourselves over to the game's official site/forum or to a piece of its soundtrack, do have a look at this amazing Star Fox: Shadows of Lylat trailer:

  12. *looks shocked!!* You stole my damn post!!!! *giggles* Just kiddin'

    I saw this before and I thought it looked really cool. Better than StarFox: assault - that game was awful. I didn't think between Namco AND Nintendo, such an atrocity could be produced. But they soon proved that wrong.

    That is awesome. They took actual quotes from the game! It's quite sad how I remember which character said what and on which stage. *hangs head in shame*
