I may as well offer my opinion on both Starfox games as I think they're both classics in my opinion. The original was fantastic. It was obviously one of the first games to utilize the Super FX chip which created the 3D polygon graphics. I was blown away by the intro to the first level and the controls were lovely and responsive. The action may have gotten a tad repetitive as the game went on but it was still a wonder to behold for it's time.

Starfox 64 was an absolutely gorgeous looking game and easily in my top five N64 list. Some of the levels were brilliantly designed... especially the one that was robbed unashamedly from Independence Day but nobody cared because it was that awesome! It was a much less challenging game than the original but a varied choice of path to the end level kept the replayability level high.
