So I'm just now playing Star Fox 64 and having a blast. It has me interested in Zero and now that it has been out a couple of days could you guys give me the pros and cons of the game? Needless to say the reviews can't be trusted especially with journalists so salty over current events.
So what are your thoughts on the game and is it worth the entrance fee?

It's better and harder than 64 and the tilt aiming makes it the smoothest controlling Starfox game yet.
This can only end poorly.
You'll get pretty much people like endlessly singing the game's praises, and other people calling that guy a Nintendrone and saying it's shit. Just watch footage and make up your own mind.
You'll also get people who know what kind of shitposter you are.
And what kind is that, pray tell?
"Better" is entirely subjective, and it's definitely not harder by any stretch of the definition. In fact, once you get over the learning curve of the motion controls you realize the game's actually easier because you can fire independently of how you move (unlike every other Star Fox game, where you have to physically aim your ship). This means you never have to risk being in line of fire in order to attack in Zero.
I've noticed those who are fervently defending Zero just say cryptic shit like "it's good" or "it's better than 64" without ever explaining themselves. Meanwhile, anyone who has played the game for themselves can see there are numerous problems besides the shitty forced controls that reviewers are bitching about.
If you've played 64, you've already played the definitive version. Playing it so close to Zero is a terrible idea because you WILL see what a downgrade the new one is. Everyone who ever gave a shit about the future of the series knew from the first E3 reveal that this game was going to be underwhelming, but thanks to recent controversies the hardcore fans are adamantly defending this game out of spite of the journos who they think were spiting Nintendo.
Yes, we know reviewers are shit at vidya, but there's more wrong with SFZ than some dumb motion controls. It's sad too, because if this game doesn't sell well Nintendo probably isn't going to make a new Star Fox for another decade, but they sure as hell shouldn't be rewarded for pushing this half-baked rehash out.
After playing this game for a while, I agree with most of your points. I think people like it a lot because it's the closest thing we have gotten to a decent starfox since 64. There are multiple problems with the game, but it can be pretty fun at times. It's just that the fun is kind of spread out and short lived. I would like to see another Star Fox game, but they really should put in more effort than this.
In a nutshell, the game is fun, but disappointingly lacking in content.
Pic unrelated.
How's the 3ds remake and assault then? I have heard about the issues you're talking about which really sucks. I could definitely see where the lack of stages could hurt the replay value.
