The Story
=========
(my version)
All right, this whole this started in the Lylat System. These planets
circling around the sun enjoyed their years of fun. Well, that is until
Andross gone mad. He has made a secret weapon and then threw it at the
Cornerian planet. Lots of the major cities were destroyed, and also innocent
civilians. That's when General Pepper knew that Andross had to be caught.
With his team, they eventually captured him and sent him to Venom. But that
didn't stop Andross. Not at all.
A couple years after the capture, Pepper found some strange things happening
in Venom on his computer. He didn't know what it was, so he sent his team to
Venom. Once he did, they never came back. Pepper then found out that his
team members were all dead, destroyed by Andross. Pepper then knew that he
had to send his Top Ace pilots: James McCloud, Pigma Dengar, and Peppy Hare,
to explore the area.
Before they reached Venom, they found it difficult to reach to reach Venom.
Probably the torchure was going through all the planets. When they reached
Venom, Pigma had gotten hypnotized in a light beam. It made him betray his
team members and join Andross's team. When the remaing two pilots reached
Andross, they didn't know what they were in for. Peppy went flying all over
the place, and then he was blow away out of the arena. Then, it was all
James. He was the last one. But soon, he would be the last one … to die.
Andross grabbed the Arwing in his hands. The plane was trying to wiggle out,
but couldn't. The Arwing then got crushed with James in it, and while it was
crunching, steamy blood was pouring out the bottom. Peppy saw all what was
happening. It was the plane's oil and fuel … and James's blood. Peppy then
escaped in horror to tell Fox, James's son, about his father's fate.
When Andross knew that the Cornerian army was out to get him, he consumed
with rage, and Andross declared war on the Lylat System. After a while,
Pepper's team has failed, and Andross has taken control of every planet,
including Corneria. Pepper knew that his army couldn't stop Andross alone,
so he had to send his other 4 Top Ace pilots: Fox McCloud, Peppy Hare, Slippy
Toad, and Falco Lombardi.
Character Profile
=================
Here is the list of the characters in the game and my description about them.
Now remember--these are my opinions, so don't go e-mailing me and dissing me
that you think they're neat and I think they're stupid.
>FOX McCLOUD
Unbelievable--He's one of the youngest members in the Star Fox army and he's
the leader. I bet Falco is complaining on that one! This guy is pretty
cool, and he should be a real pilot and fly in planes in the "real world."
Still, I would have to say, he could get a little dull in dialect.
>SLIPPY TOAD
How many of you guys think that this guy is a real crybaby? "I!" This dude
is a real annoying butthole if you ask me. God, I mean, he screams and
shouts for help whenever he sees an enemy and he always repeats his gosh darn
words all the time! But, the best thing about him is that he can analyze the
boss's life meter. Heck, they should of given that to Peppy as a skill. I
still wonder how he managed to build the Blue-Marine.
>PEPPY HARE
A wise old rabbit. He is the oldest in the Star Fox team, but he can give
great info if you are playing this game for your couple first times. He just
gets a little annoying repeating the words, "Don't give up! Trust your
instincts!"
>FALCO LOMBARDI
Do you know what ticked off means? If you don't, ask Falco. He has tons of
it! All I do is try to ignore him. Don't accidently shoot him or shoot at
his target. But, besides that, he could actually be the team leader if he
would calm down. But then, this wouldn't be a game, would it?
>GENERAL PEPPER
The "Top Gun" of the Star Fox army. He won't join your team, but he really
needs to save the Lylat System.
>ROB64
This is the robot that runs the Great Fox. He his a nice dude, because if
one of your team members's sheild gauge go down to 0%, ROB64 will call them
and tell him to come on the Great Fox and get repaired. He also helps out on
giving you items when you need them. If this guy was on your team, you would
kick butt. But then, who would run the Great Fox? General Pepper??
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
>KATT (?)
She appears in: Zoness, Macbeth, and Sector Z. You will have to be at Zoness
to meet her a second time. If you destroy all the lights, you will travel to
Sector Z and meet her there. If you don't destroy all the lights, you will
travel to Macbeth. Well, she is Falco's girlfriend, and she can be a
pest … like Falco. Hey! I think they make a match!
>BILL GREY
You first meet this guy in Katina. If you destroyed the mothership, you will
go to Solar where you'll meet him. If you didn't derstroy it, you will meet
Bill in Macbeth. This guy should be in the Star Fox team, but he does have
his own team. This guy is very calm and friendly and could be the best
leader. Well, he is, but not in the Star Fox team. Just don't shoot him or
then he will get mad at you.
>ANDROSS
Do I really? Puh-lease!
Items and Power-Ups
===================
Here is my list of items and power-ups for weapons.
>LASER UPGRADE
This is the item where it can upgrade your laser. You start out in the game
with a Single Laser. Then you can get these until it's up to a Twin Laser,
then a Hyper Laser. Remember, you will have your Laser Upgrade until you die
or lose a wing. Then you will go back to a Single Laser. Collect 1 of these
Laser Upgrades to get a Twin Laser, and then collect another one to get a
Hyper Laser.
>SMART BOMB
These bombs are not actually smart--they don't target and hit! Oh well, at
least they give off a lot of damage to enemies. My advice is to not use
these
on bosses. They go through them.
>SUPPLY RING
Get these and your shield gauge will recover a little bit.
>MIDDLE SUPPLY RING
This sucker will recover your shield gauge about 3x-5x more than a Supply
Ring.
>SHIELD RING
Get three of these to make your shield gauge twice as big. It will also
recover some of your life, too. If you collect another 3 of them, you will
get a 1-up. Remember: You can take the left-over rings to the next planet if
you have any.
>WING REPAIR
This will only appear if you lost a wing. It can appear in tricky locations,
so listen to the "beep, beep, beep..." until you find it. If you grab the
Wing Repair, your wings will be fixed. Or, if you just finish the stage,
they'll be repaired, also.
>GREAT FOX BOX
I call it this because the Great Fox will give you a box with a helpful item
that suits you. If you don't have a lot of bombs, ROB64 will give you a
bomb. If you need just a little more life, ROB64 will give you a Supply
Ring. If you need life, ROB64 will give you a Middle Supply Ring. If you're
lucky, you will get a Shield Ring. And, of course, if you don't have your
wing(s), ROB64 will give you a Wing Repair. If you need a Laser Upgrade,
he'll give you that too, but that hardly ever happens! Hey...this should be
called the ROB64 Box {:^)
Walkthrough
===========
Here is my walkthrough for Star Fox 64. If you are still having problems,
keep on trying – you'll get it!
{THE EASY ROUTE}
----------------
>CORNERIA
Machine: Arwing
Level : Easy
BWeapon: Single
Medal : 150 hits
Boss : 1-Granga
2-Attack Carrier
You can survive with a Single Laser during the level. Oops, forgot to tell
you what the B means on BWeapon. It stands for "Best Weapon." It could be
hard to get the medal in this level, but you can always try again! First
off, Slippy already gets in trouble! Shoot the enemy off his tail. Continue
on and on. Make sure to destroy the robots that are knocking down the
building. They will give you a HIT+5. A little after the checkpoint, you
will have to save Falco. If you don't, you will have to beat the normal
boss. Whenever you reach the shore, you will find arches in the water. Go
under them all to go into the waterfall and beat the special boss. If you
don't, you will have to go through the regular route to the regular boss.
GRANGA (NORMAL BOSS): If you have the hyper laser, listen. Shoot one of his
legs off before you run into him. Then, fly to the mountains. Make a U-Turn
and when you see Granga, shoot him in the green box as fast as you can until
he blows up. This should only take 15 sec. to do. You will go to Meteo.
ATTACK CARRIER (SPECIAL BOSS): Destroy his arms off whenever they are open,
and then hit the middle of the carrier until it blows up. You should go to
Sector Y.
*****************************************************************************
>METEO
Machine: Arwing
Level : Easy
BWeapon: Twin-Hyper
Medal : 200 hits
Boss : Radgar
Hopefully all of you know why this "so-called" planet is called Meteo. 'Cuz
meteors and meteorites are shooting everywhere! To my knowledge, make sure
to keep Peppy alive. He warns you about the booby traps. Here's an example:
After the beginning flying meteors, Peppy will worn you that there are ships
hiding behind the big meteorites. The best way to get 200 hits in this level
is to go through the warp, otherwise get a Hyper Laser and shoot those
meteors! This level is not really a "walkthrough" level. Just expect to see
more of the same.
RADGAR (NORMAL BOSS): This dude can be a pain at first! First of all, you
need to take out his shield. Do that by hitting the yellow triangles. Be
very careful of not hitting the shield too often. If it gets bright green,
it will let out a big laser shot. After you take out the sheild, shoot for
the big yellow diamond, but be careful of his laser beam. If it hits you and
you have a half amount of life left, about a 65% chance that you will die.
After you do that, you'll entirely destroy the back end of the ship. But,
it's not over yet! He'll turn his ship around. Destroy the two yellow
rectangles. Be extremly cautious! He will let out an extremely very
powerful laser beam. If you get stuck in it, you are dead for sure (or very
darn close to it)! After you destroy the yellow triangles, he will lose
power and be blown up. You will be heading to Fortuna.
WARP (NO BOSS - SPECIAL WARP): This warp is very easy to get through, and you
should be able to get the medal in Meteo. This warp should take you to
Katina.
*****************************************************************************
>FORTUNA
Machine: Arwing
Level : Easy-Medium
BWeapon: Twin
Medal : 50 hits
Boss : Star Wolf Team
This should be one heck of an easy medal to get indeed. Just shoot 10 or
more ships before the Star Wolf team comes and then shoot the Star Wolf team
down in 5 minutes. It's that simple!
STAR WOLF TEAM: These guys are the boss. Star Wolf, Leon (?), Pigma Dengar,
and the Andrew (?). If you defeat them and disarm the bomb, you will go to
Solar. If you fail and the bomb blows up, you will go to Sector X.
*****************************************************************************
>SECTOR X
Machine: Arwing
Level : Medium
BWeapon: Twin-Hyper
Medal : 150 hits
Boss : Spyborg
Oh boy! This planet has been totally destroyed...and totally armed with
enemies! This should be a very easy medal to get! Make sure to save Peppy
in the middle of the level--use a bomb to destroy them all. You won't hurt
Peppy. Remember, it's a SMART bomb! If you went to Katina before, Bill will
show up helping to go through the warp by shooting the tiles for you. Just
shoot them a couple more times and they will open for you to go in!
SPYBORG (BOSS): Here is Andross's Secret Weapon. Shoot the eyes only
whenever they glow yellowish. Whenever his head blows off, doesn't mean that
he's dead! He still has some more juice in him! Make sure to kill the rest
of him off before Slippy rushes in and gets slapped to Titania. If he
doesn't get slapped, you will go to Macbeth.
WARP (NO BOSS): There is also another route. To go to Sector Z. This warp
is not as easy as Meteo's warp, and you have about a 70% chance of losing a
wing or dying.
*****************************************************************************
>TITANIA
Machine: Landmaster
Level : Medium
BWeapon: Single Shot
Medal : 150 hits
Boss : Goras
You will end up here if Slippy has been sent flying here. Remember, you can
only go here and there is only one route out of here--defeating the boss.
This level can be very hard if you don't know how to control the Landmaster.
Refer to the instruction booklet on how to run it. Be careful of all the
catuses, bombs, and detonators! That's all the advice about this level that
I know of.
GORAS (BOSS): Now this is some boss. He looks like a dog! First off, shoot
the "paws". While you are shooting them, Slippy will be calling. After you
shoot the "paws", the whole body of Goras will come out. In one of his arms
is holding Slippy. Shoot that arm first, then the rest of them. Becareful
of his tail whip and strong laser. Hover over the tail whip and barrel roll
out of the way for the laser. Whenever his arms get shot off, shoot for his
chest until he dies. This can be a tough battle!
*****************************************************************************
>BOLSE
Machine: Arwing
Level : Easy-Medium
BWeapon: Twin
Medal : 150 hits
Boss : Star Wolf Team
This level is in all-range mode. Here is the step-by-step guide: First,
shoot the towers that is guarding the core. Until the towers are destroyed,
everything is force field--even the enemies! When the towers are destroyed,
the enemies will be unarmed, so you can shoot them down until the Star Wolf
team comes
STAR WOLF TEAM (BOSS): If you have beaten these guys in Fortuna, they won't
show up so now all you have to do is destroy the core bar whenever is comes
up. Otherwise, be prepared to fight them. I would use a Hyper Laser to beat
these guys, but hey, that's just me. They can be won by the Twin Laser. It
may take a heck of a lot longer!
(THE MEDIUM ROUTE)
------------------
>KATINA
Machine: Arwing
Level : Medium
BWeapon: Twin-Hyper
Medal : 150 hits
Boss : Enemy Mothership
This level is also in all-range mode. You will meet your friend, Bill, here.
Help him out! There are two ways to get in it, and two ways to get out of
it. Whenever you destroy 10 ships, the Enemy Mothership will show up. Keep
shooting until the cool FMV plays.
ENEMY MOTHERSHIP (BOSS): Whenever the hatches go down, shoot them until they
all blow off. Then, shoot the core under 5 minutes. If you destroy the
mothership, you will go to Solar. If the mothership destroys the Katina
base, you will be headed to Sector X.
*****************************************************************************
>SOLAR
Machine: Arwing
Level : Medium-Hard
BWeapon: Hyper
Medal : 100 hits
Boss : Vulcain
No doubt about it--you are definitly in the eternal flames--and I don't mean
the opposite of Heaven! It's the sun, and you're gonna need the Hyper Laser
to get through this level. You could beat this level with Twin and it could
be near impossible with the Single because the Fire Birds can take the heat!
Be very careful of the flames. I always stay at the top of the screen until
Bill comes with the Supply Rings. You will meet him only if you defeat the
mothership in Katina. Otherwise, I just go right or left of the fire arches
and the big hills. Good luck in this level--and good luck with the boss!
VULCAIN (BOSS): There is only one way to leave this frying pan...and that is
to beat the boss! First of all, I want to tell you that this is not the
Secret Weapon. That is at Sector X. I think this is the fire mutant from
some game I played before--can't remember. Is it one of the Metroids??
Anyway, to beat this dude you have to blow off the arms. You will know once
the fire comes flying out of his arm sockets. Then, shoot the head until his
head blows off and then he gets self-destructed. Be careful of his fire
splashes at you. Shoot the rocks that he spits out to get the Supply Ring.
This is a tough match--I think that's why Nintendo made the boss strategy
easy.
*****************************************************************************
>MACBETH
Machine: Landmaster
Level : Medium-Hard
BWeapon: Single Shot
Medal : 150 hits
Boss : Mechbeth
If you like trains, this is the level for you! Katt will show up if you met
her in Zoness. The only objective of this level is to blow up all the train
tracks. Make sure you know how to use the hover technique for the
Landmaster. If you don't, it's this: R and Z button. Well, good luck,
that's all really I have to say about this level. Well, I do I have more.
The way to blow up the train into the Macbeth Base!
MECHBETH (BOSS STAGE): If you have chosen to beat the bird, here's what to
do. First of all, you have to blow off the legs and head. Once the fake
head is blown off, it'll use a very powerful laser beam at you. Be careful
of that! Then, you have to shoot the train's power unit whenever it is open.
The energy will go flying to the bird and hurt him so you can shoot him until
he dies. Repeat if you didn't kill him the first time.
MECHBETH (BLOW UP TRAIN STAGE): To destroy the bird plus the train and the
driver, shoot all the 8 switches, then shoot the switcher. Once you shoot
it, the switch will stick out. Shoot at the switch to make the train switch
tracks. It will then run into the Macbeth Base and then both the train and
the base will blow up. You will also get a nice HIT+50 bonus {:^)
(THE HARD ROUTE)
----------------
>SECTOR Y
Machine: Arwing
Level : Medium-Hard
BWeapon: Twin-Hyper
Medal : 150 hits
Boss : Shogun Guards & Shogun
Wow! There are three bosses: 2 Shogun Guards and the original Shogun dude.
I won't explain how to beat them until a little bit later. I want to tell
you that this level is filled with robots. If you watched the beginning FMV
sequence, you will see that their laser guns can really hurt you, so that's
why I also put this as Hard. Also, you can beat this with Twin Laser for
sure, but it is 10x as easier with the Hyper Laser. This should be easy to
get 150 hits if you count the boss. Hey, you got a total of HIT+19 there!
SHOGUN GUARDS (MID-BOSS): These guys aren't the real boss, OKAY! I put "(MID
BOSS)" there, all right! So stop e-mailing me about it {:^<> Now, to beat
these dudes--just shoot them until they blow up. They both share the same
boss meter, so Nintendo made a little easier for you. Sly dogs!
SHOGUN (BOSS): Do the same thing with this boss like you did with the other
bosses. If you scored over 100 hits at the end of the level, you will be
heading to Aquas, my next level walkthrough. If you don't, you will be
heading to Katina.
*****************************************************************************
>AQUAS
Machine: Blue-Marine
Level : Hard
BWeapon: Twin
Medal : 150 hits
Boss : Bacoon
If you do not know how to run the Blue-Marine, read the following.
-----------------------------------------------
HOW TO CONTROL THE BLUE MARINE:
A=Shoot Laser B=Shoot torpedo R/Z=Barrel Roll
-----------------------------------------------
That's all there is to it! Now, if things get all wacky, press A, B, R, and
Z all together. Remember--you have unlimited torpedoes, so that's why you
can just use the torpedoes to beat the level, but you need some strong laser
to beat the boss. Twin will do. Hyper is faster. This level is very
difficult to beat, so if you are having trouble, look in: Nintendo Power-
Volume 99 (the GoldenEye 007 issue) or the Star Fox 64 Player's Guide. My
advice is always use the barrel roll to beat the level. And use the
torpedoes on the enemies! Good luck!
BACOON (BOSS): The shells mouth is being protected by barriers. Shoot them
until they turn colorful, and then use a torpedo on one of them. Do the same
thing on the other one. Next, shoot the tubes to get more hits. And
whenever the mouth opens, shoot the cover to the eye until it disappears.
Then, shoot a torpedo in the eye. Repeat until he dies. After you beat the
level, you will go to Zoness no matter what!
*****************************************************************************
>ZONESS
Machine: Arwing
Level : Hard
BWeapon: Hyper
Medal : 250 hits
Boss : Sarumarine
This level could be one of the hardest levels of the whole game. Katt will
show up sometime in the level. Trust me--she is a pain! You will have to
cross strong ships over sea and on sea. Make sure to get 3 Shield Rings to
increase your shield gauge. On the decks, make sure to destroy the boxes to
get the items from them. This level cannot be walkthroughed because it
continues on just continuosly until you find the toxic wastes. That is why
the sea is so polluted. And now, the boss.
SARUMARINE (BOSS): Here is how you defeat the tough boss. Use a bomb to
destroy the smoke stacks on top of the submarine. Next, destroy one of the
launchers. The sub will turn around. Once the crane is picking up the
launcher, shoot the crane 3 times with a bomb before the launcher comes back
up. Then, the sub will turn around. Blast off the other launcher. Now,
this is why you NEED the Hyper Laser. Shoot the ship with your laser until
it the ship is sunk. If you have the Twin Laser, it will take you up to 5
minutes to take down the ship and with the Single, it will take at least 7
minutes. If you destroyed the enemy search lights, you will be heading to
Sector Z. If you have not destroyed all of the lights and was spotted, you
will be heading to Macbeth.
*****************************************************************************
>SECTOR Z
Machine: Arwing
Level : Hard
BWeapon: Twin-Hyper
Medal : 100 hits
Boss : None
This is the only level with no boss. It just has 5 missles coming toward the
Great Fox and trying to destroy it...DESTROY IT!!! Oh boy! If you need
help, read the following.
THE ATTACK OF THE GREAT FOX (NO BOSS): First off, you have to destroy the
first wave of missles which include a total of 2 missles. Destroy them off.
Your teammates will probably help you if they aren't busy or being chased by
an enemy. Then, the second wave will come out with a total of 3 missles. Do
the process once again. If you have met Katt in Zoness, she will come and
shoot the missles with you, too. If the Great Fox doesn't get hit, you will
go to Area 6. If the Great Fox gets WHAMMED!, then you will go to Bolse.
*****************************************************************************
>AREA 6
Machine: Arwing
Level : V. Hard
BWeapon: Hyper
Medal : 300 hits
Boss : Gorgon
The level is determined to be the hardest level since there are a lot of
enemies, and since there are a lot of enemies, the medal meter has to be
large, so Nintendo has put you to the test--nab 300 hits to get the medal!
Of course, the easiest way is to hit the satelites, right? WRONG! Just
concentrate on the groups of enemies. You can shoot some of the satelites,
but not all of them you see. This level is also very long, so it is
important to get 3 sheild rings and the Hyper Laser. It also wouldn't to
have some extra lives. After you complete the basic stage (line 1) you will
reach the ships. After you went through half the battle of the ships, you
will reach the last line (line 3) you will run into
harder ships and you will run into the boss, Gorgon.
GORGON (BOSS): This will be run into steps, OK?
Step 1 - Defeat the three tentacles
Step 2 - Shoot at the core until it turns red (it will then shoot a strong
laser, so be careful)
Step 3 - Gorgon will then shoot out enemy ships so destroy them (it will then
shoot a strong laser, so be careful)
Step 4 - Defeat the three tentacles to open the saucer
Step 5 - Shoot the core until it blows (repeat if you didn't destroy the
core)
After you beat the boss, you will be headed to Venom (Stage 2)
(VENOM)
-------
>VENOM (STAGE 1)
Machine: Arwing
Level : Medium
BWeapon: Twin-Hyper
Medal : 200 hits
Boss : 1-Rock Dude
2-Andross
Arrival: From Bolse
If you didn't get to Area 6, you will have to go to Venom 1. This place is
not in all-range mode, so you have to shoot a lot of the Venom ships. They
are totally spreded over the Venom land, so it should be easy to get 200
hits. Just make sure to have some bombs with you. Otherwise, just try to
shoot most of the ships down.
ROCK DUDE (MID-BOSS): Once you enter the temple, a rock dude (unknown) is
running away from you. To destroy the dude, shoot off is body parts until
his head and body turn red. Shoot them until the dude falls apart and
crumbles.
TUNNEL (ROUTE TO ANDROSS - NO BOSS): This is just a tunnel to go to Andross.
It also has some power-ups, so make sure to grab ahold of each one.
ANDROSS (FAKE BOSS): Yep, this is the faker, but at least he is the final
boss. Here's the easiest way to defeat him is to shoot one of his eyes.
Once one hand is itching an eye, shoot the other hand. If you have the Hyper
Laser and you have shot fast enough, the hand should blow off. Do same thing
to an eye. He will not itch it so shoot the hand fast until it blows off. I
would shoot the right hand first, because he would then use a magic laser
attack on you if you don't destroy the hand. Then, after the hands are gone,
destroy the face by shooting it. Then, the face will be destroyed,
uncovering a fake face machine. Shoot it until that blows up. You have
beaten the game...sort of. After the credits, you will see the face of
Andross in the sky, and he will also laugh, telling you that you haven't
beaten the whole game. I think that this fake Andross was his secret
weapon!! Now try to go to Venom 2!
*****************************************************************************
>VENOM (STAGE 2)
Machine: Arwing
Level : Hard
BWeapon: Hyper
Medal : 200 hits
Boss : 1-Star Wolf Team
2-Andross
3-Andross's Brain
Arrival: From Area 6
Let's get started with the bosses because this is all-range mode, and once
you enter, the Star Wolf team will invade.
STAR WOLF TEAM (MID-BOSS): If you have beaten these guys in Fortuna, so what?
They are now rebuilt and some of their bodies are computer-generated. Use
the same strategy to defeat these characters. The medal will be easy to get
if you have the Hyper, because one enemy will be a HIT+50 if you beat him
under 3 minutes! After you beat them, Fox will go in through the tunnel.
TUNNEL (ROUTE TO ANDROSS - NO BOSS): Through this tunnel, there is a route
to get totally equipped and I'm notta telling...oh, all right. I will! The
route is: <--, -->, <--, <--, -->, -->. Then, you will face the real
Andross!
ANDROSS (FINAL BOSS - PT 1): Defeat this Andross exactly like the one in
Venom 1. See that above.
ANDROSS (FINAL BOSS - PT 2): The screen will turn into all-range mode while
Andross releases his true form--a brain. Now, he says that he has the
"brains" to rule the Lylat System...and kill you! Kill him first by
destroying the two "things". Hit them until they blow up. If forgot how
much HIT points. I think about HIT+3 or +4. After you destroy those, shoot
the backside of the brain until Andross dies. Make sure to remember that he
disappears whenever you hit him. Don't run into his veins--they can really
destroy you! After you deliver the last hit, his veins will grab you and he
will kill you with him. After he
dies, you realize that you aren't dead. You were saved by...you father!?
THE "REAL" ENDING (OUT OF TUNNEL - NO BOSS): The last objective of the game
is to follow James McCloud (your father's ghost). You cannot hurt him in any
way, so don't try it. If you hit him with a Hyper Laser, he might turn red
but that won't harm anything. He goes very fast, so use your boost as much
as you can. Make sure you can tune into the speed of this. After you exit
the tunnel, you have beaten the game. Your teammates will congradulate you
on your bravery. Congratulations! You have beaten the MAIN GAME version of
Star Fox 64! Only true Star Fox people can beat the game in EXPERT version,
so are you ready?
Well, this conludes my walkthrough. Hopefully it helped! If you have any
questions, e-mail me. If I have any corrections, e-mail me them, and I'll
fix them in my next version!

Cheats and Hints
================
Since I did the walkthrough, you guys help me on this one! Send me a tip, a
trick, or cheat that you have. Please don't send me one if it is already on
here!
EXPERT MODE Submitted by: Me!
To get Expert Mode for the Main Game, just collect all the medals in it. To
access Expert Mode, highlight Main Game on the menu screen, push the analog
stick left or right, and then it should say Expert. Expert Mode is basically
the same as in Main Game, except the Fox wears the funky sunglasses (he must
have gotten contacts), the enemies are twice as harder, and you take twice
the damage.
SOUNDTRACK MODE Submitted by: Me!
To get Soundtrack Mode, just collect all the medals in the Main Game. To
access Soundtrack Mode, highlight Sound on the menu screen, push the analog
stick left or right, and then it should say Expert. Soundtrack Mode has all
the songs to the Soundtrack CD, with some bonus extras.
If you want, you can change the music bars by pressing C-right. I ACCIDENTLY
found that out ;).
NEW TITLE SCREEN Submitted by: Me!
To get the new title screen, just collect all the medals in Expert Mode. It
will replace the old title screen right after the game restarts.
(C'mon! I need more cheats and hints! Start typing!!!)
E-Mail Note
===========
Even though I've dropped the subject codes DOESN'T MEAN that you just put
whatever subject name you want. You need to put the name of the game on the
subject line, be it a question, comment, whatever!
