Yep, shoot!

Is it just me or does the video still look like a giant red phallus shooting flames?

I can't seem to get the Youtube embed to work any more... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RmVuCg4vJjo

^ That made my day!

I have no idea how this flew under my radar for ten years, but just in case anyone else has missed it... <object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P7N2Jz1en4w&hl=en_US&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P7N2Jz1en4w&hl=en_US&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object>

Killjoy But you're right.

Whichever it is, the guy throws a brick in it. I think that's probably the cause of the destruction...

Nope, sorry... The caption had something like "I like planets" at the end of it though. I had a quick search and there are a whole heap of images using this technique, e.g. http://www.flickr.com/photos/melh/423364373/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/mikkelelbech/773069425/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/sushla/582345653/sizes/o/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/sayzey/2160675332/

Here's my contribution...

Just what I wanted to hear. I mean, I expected as much. I was just a bit worried about this kind of thing, mostly because Star Fox Adventures received such rave reviews. I thought perhaps there'd been an unfortunate sea change in the genre (though I've only played a little of The Wind Waker).

I'm only up to the part where you get the , and I'm finding the whole thing a bit linear to be honest. Does the game loosen up and let you explore more / pursue side quests / generally fuck about more, or is it more like the atrocious Star Fox Adventures? And yeah, Majora's Mask is the best Zelda by a mile (though admittedly, OOT obviously set the scene for it).

I'm several (in-game) days into this and while I'm still not entirely sold on it, after reading these comments I think I'll have to go put another how or so into it. What I really want is a sequel to Space Station Silicon Valley. That game was so incredibly awesome.

IMO, Donkey Kong 64 and Star Fox Adventures, graphics aside, were both absolutely awful games. And I loved Banjo Kazooie and the N64 Zeldas (of which SFA borrows heavily from).
