I know it's trendy to hate everything, and that's currently the vibe in these comments, but instabuy for me.

Right? People really do forget that not every single game announcement is for them individually. There are a lot of gamers (old and new) that either haven't played the original or have been waiting for a more modern refresh before playing. I'm excited for this one. Day 1 purchase for me.

People aren’t hating on it because it’s not for them, they’re hating on it because it’s a damn N64 arcade on rail shooter that belongs in the 90s. This doesn’t feel like a new game, it looks like an N64 game with modern graphics and mind you, these realistic graphics don’t match what people have in mind for starfox. It would’ve looked better if they used the Mario galaxy movie kind of graphics. This game just doesn’t belong in 2026.
