  ####  #  When I was browsing through GameFAQs, I noticed there weren't 
very many _complete_ FAQs for Star Fox. This struck me as odd, due to the 
fact that Star Fox was sort of an entry game to the 64. I mean, this is the 
first game with real dialogue, a sound test option and a real simulation to 
airplane flight. Well, there are a LOT of people who think the same of this 
game; so I made a longer, better FAQ to this game. That is what I do (sorry, 
for those of you who wrote a FAQ on Star Fox, but I had to get that off my 
chest).

NOTE: If you see ANY mistakes at all, then e-mail them to me at 
{kratt71@hotmail.com} (yes, I will give you credit; there's a credits 
section).

  ####  #  The characters... what's the big deal?


------------------------------
Main Characters
------------------------------

The character that you're portraying. He can't believe daddy's really 
gone... okay, too sappy.


********************
Peppy Hare
********************
Animal: Hare
Gender: Male

Yay. The old fogey. He's a good source of information though. He tells you 
how to beat bosses! After they've killed you!


********************
Slippy Toad
********************
Animal: Toad
Gender: ???

The mechanical wizard. Slippy can put up the shield gauge of a boss but 
can't fly to save it's a**. Literally! No one really knows if he's a girl, 
or a boy (hee, hee). If you know it's gender, e-mail me at 
kratt71@hotmail.com.


********************
Falco Lombardi
********************
Animal: Lombardi (type of bird)
Gender: Male

The good ol' whiny baby! He gets mad at you for saving him after he asks! 
He's a real good flyer though.


********************
Andross
********************
Animal: Human (well, not really, he transforms into... something... I can't 
tell, it'll spoil it)
Gender: Male

The bad guy. All he wants is control of the Lylat System but won't run for 
office. What a lazy guy!

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

------------------------------
Less Important Characters
------------------------------


********************
General Pepper
********************
Animal: Dog
Gender: Male

Does he have a first name? Any-hoo, he is the big gruff guy that sends you 
on your missions and pretends to do paperwork. Sorry that he sent James to 
his death.


********************
Bill Grey
********************
Animal: Dog
Gender: Male

Fox's friend from the Cornerian Flight Academy. Tends to forgive you if you 
shoot him (I wouldn't forgive you, I'd be dead, hee, hee).


********************
Katt Monroe
********************
Animal: Cat
Gender: Female (the only one! Unless you count Slippy)

Look what the Katt dragged in! Katt has the hots for Falco, but he thinks 
she's dead. She's gonna make sure he knows she's alive. ;)


********************
Wolf O'Donnel

A Chameleon that doesn't change colour! Holy cow! Going to play Gex in Gex 
4: The Remote of Doom (just kidding)!

Animal: Pig
Gender: Male

He sold out his comrades for money, but can money save him from Fox? 
Probably.


********************
Andrew Oikonny
********************
Animal: Ape
Gender: Male

Andross' nephew. This puzzles me because...

{SPOILER -- CONTINUE AT YOUR OWN RISK}

...Andross is a brain. I mean, how could a brain have... you know... it... 
no offence!


********************
James McCloud
********************
Animal: Fox
Gender: Male

Killed by Andross, but rumors say that he may still lurk on Venom... hmm... 
time for Sherlock Fox!

  ####  #  Wow! I _finally_ have the Star Fox enemy names! This deserves 
some BIG credit from RedDemon (I think his real name is Skyler Boerens 
but...); he gave me all these names. Also the way these are laid out is 
this:

<Description>: <Other Information>


------------------------------
Garudas
------------------------------
Machines on Tank like wheels, with big hands: Garudas go around destroying 
buildings; you have to be careful of falling buildings around you.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

------------------------------
Ski Bots
------------------------------
Bot on skis only found on water: They don't attack but you can run into 
them.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

------------------------------
Granga Fighters
------------------------------
Blue Winged, Dark Blue Strip in the middle: These are ones that can attack, 
they are pretty slow but pose a threat.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

------------------------------
Firebirds
------------------------------
Red Birds (the designers could've put in a few more polygons...): These guys 
drop bombs that burst into columns that could hit you.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

------------------------------
Hop Bot
------------------------------
Silver jumping robot: Aim for them in advance or they could cost you the 
game.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

------------------------------
Web Ships
------------------------------
Little ships that create web-like structure to block you: Really you don't 
need to worry about killing the ships, just bypass the structure of the 
"web".

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

------------------------------
Moras
------------------------------
Long Snake Like Creatures: Aim for the head it will kill them quickly.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

------------------------------
Flip Bots
------------------------------
Silver front with red back: You must hit them in the red section on the back 
or you will do no damage to them.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

------------------------------
Wolfen
------------------------------
Two fronts and a two winged craft: This is what Star Wolf and company use. 
You cannot inflict any damage to these with charged shots.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

------------------------------
Killer Bee
------------------------------
You can't lock on these suckers, so you need to blast them with regular 
lasers. these Killer Bees can be horrible when grouped in twos or threes.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

------------------------------
Borzoi Fighters
------------------------------
Pointed V like Winged Craft: They move fast and quick, they also fire quick 
so you have to be ready.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

------------------------------
Desert Crawlers
------------------------------
Spider like craft with a red outside: They are easy to kill 'cause they are 
extremely slow.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

------------------------------
Desert Rovers
------------------------------
A tank like structure with a big barrel: They don't maneuver well but have 
good weapons to fire at you with.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

------------------------------
Laser Cannon
------------------------------
Ground Cannons with big barrels and red stripes: These are easy to kill, but 
they can be deadly with a combination of air fighters.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

------------------------------
Invader II
------------------------------
A craft with green line in the center, with green wings: They are slow and 
easy to target.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

------------------------------
Giant Spindly Fish
------------------------------
Long/Skinny Fish: These lurk in Aquas, they swim fast and don't do much,
but you can get some quick points off of them.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

------------------------------
Angler Fish
------------------------------
Big Fish with light attached: These take forever to kill and if you run into 
them you can get some serious damage.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

------------------------------
Aquas Squid
------------------------------
Squid: They don't do much but jump up and down, simply use a torpedo to take 
care of them.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

------------------------------
Starfish
------------------------------
Starfish: These are dangerous if there is a lot of them because they explode 
when they get close to you, so fire off torpedoes before you get to it.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

------------------------------
Kani
------------------------------
Spider-like craft with zebra strips: These are extremely fast, use a charged 
laser to kill them.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

------------------------------
Z-Serpents
------------------------------
Look just like big birds: They run into you by accident sometimes but other 
than that they are harmless.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

------------------------------
Invader III
------------------------------
Look like Invader II: They are more advanced and will chase you down.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

------------------------------
Wolfen II
------------------------------
Just like Wolfen I but with One Pink Strip with Blue: These are much better 
than the arwing is, but can be defeated.

Point of the Game
------------------------------

********************
Story
********************
In a system called the Lylat System, a Cornerian scientist by the name of 
Andross went crazy. He unleashed a bio-weapon on his home world of Corneria 
and he was charged for treason and was banished to the world of Venom.

Five years have passed, and a certain general by the name of Pepper noticed 
strange activity coming from the planet Venom. So, he sent the old Star Fox 
team consisting of James McCloud, Pigma Dengar, and Peppy Hare, to 
investigate.

As they arrived, Andross opened a private com-link to Pigma, offering him 
money to bring James and Peppy into his trap. James fell victim in his trap 
and Peppy just barely escaped. On the power he had left, Peppy returned home 
and told James' son Fox... the bad news.

Another five years have gone by, and General Pepper has formed a new Star 
Fox team, due to the fact that Andross has attacked the entirety of the 
Lylat System. This time Fox McCloud, Peppy Hare, Slippy Toad, and Falco 
Lombardi, will not fail.


********************
Your Objective
********************
What you must do is defeat Andross! ...but there's more to it than that. You 
must go through the Lylat system, where Andross is trying to stop you from 
getting to him. YOU get to choose the route and YOU are meant to go through 
seven missions. Are YOU up to it?

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

------------------------------
Flow of the Game
------------------------------
The game flows in three modes:


********************
Corridor Mode
********************
Corridor mode is when you just fly straight through the level. If you fly 
off to one side, there will be an arrow preventing you from going further.


********************
Corridor Bosses
********************
Corridor Bosses have the same properties as Corridor Mode but you don't 
move.

********************
All-Range Mode
********************
All-range mode lets you fly everywhere until you reach the edge of the map; 
you then do an automatic U-turn.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

------------------------------
Controls
------------------------------


********************
Basic Controls
********************
Control Stick: Moves you -- up to go down, down to go up.
A Button: Fires laser.
B Button: Fires bomb.
C-Up Button: Changes camera angle
C-Left Button: Uses the boost.
C-Right Button: Responds to ROB64 -- look for a yellow icon at the top
of the screen.
C-Down Button: Uses the brake.
L Button: Unused
R Button: Tilt to the right.
Z Button: Tilt to the left.
Start Button: Pauses the game.
+ Control Pad: Unused


********************
Advanced Controls
********************
C-Left Button + Control Stick Down: When pressed EXACTLY at the same time, 
performs a loop.
C-Down Button + Control Stick Down: When pressed EXACTLY at the same time, 
performs a U-turn.
Hold A: Charges your laser. If you sweep your cursor over a minor enemy 
while charging the laser, you'll lock on. Let go and quickly press A to fire 
a concentrated laser blast. Or instead, press B to fire a lock-on bomb.


********************
Landmaster
********************
The difference is, you can't perform loops, U-turns, and you can't change 
the camera angle.


********************
Blue-Marine
********************
The difference is, you can't perform loops, U-turns, and you can't change 
the camera angle.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

------------------------------
Game Modes
------------------------------
These are the things you can pick on the main menu! [evil giggles] [cell 
door shutting]

********************
Main Game
********************
This mode lets you play the game normally through the levels.


********************
VS.
********************
Should be 'Versus'... oh well. You play head to head with a stupid freak... 
uh, I mean your friends. You can play through point match: killing your 
friends for points. Or you could try time trial: killing enemies for points 
(kill your friends, then check their point score, hee, heh, heh). And for 
last, try battle royal: it gives you 1, that's 1 life to screw up.


********************
Training
********************
Just train. The trainer tells you what to do if you want to complete it. My 
tip: go for the rings.


********************
Ranking
********************
Check your (bad) scores. My best is 1568! HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA!!!


********************
Sound
********************
Fiddle (fiddle?) with sound settings.


********************
Data
********************
Delete all the current saved data. It'll warn you a couple of times then... 
ka-poof!

for playing Star Fox. I don't know why I'm doing this, but it... well... oh, 
I don't know!


------------------------------
Boss Strategies
------------------------------
To avoid boss' attacks, all you need to do is swerve using the R or Z 
buttons. Barrel roll as often as possible and you'll do fine.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

------------------------------
VS. Strategies
------------------------------
The best VS. strategy is to remember that YOUR 'FRIENDS' ARE YOUR WORST 
ENEMIES! Whew! Oh, yeah, go for the bombs and laser power-ups before your 
enemies (uh... friends) find them.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

------------------------------
All-Range Mode Strategies
------------------------------
All you want to do is be able to turn around. There are two ways to do this:

1.  Pull a U-turn.
2.  Hold the brake, the R button (L button), and right on the Control Stick 
(left on the Control Stick). This is useful to shoot some enemies on the way 
around.

Corneria
------------------------------


********************
Background
********************
This is the first level so I'll explain how this part of the FAQ works as we 
go along. This is the story of the level.

The Cornerian Army can't hold back Andross' forces much longer. That's were 
you come in; come in and defeat the leader.


********************
Level Stats
********************
This is the info about the planet and stuff.

Mission: #1
Difficulty: Easy
Bosses: Granga and Attack Carrier
Area: Planet (grass, ocean)
Vehicle: Arwing
Medal: 150 points needed


********************
How to Beat Route #1
********************
Play through the level as normal and defeat Granga.


********************
How to Beat Route #2
********************
Play through the level until you get to "6: Falco and the Antennas." Here 
you must save Falco.

Now when you get to "8: Skiers on the Water" fly through the arches creeping 
up through the water.


********************
Walkthrough
********************


1: Entrance on the Ocean
------------------------
You will come in on water in your Arwing. There will be an enemy, then two 
more will come, then two more will come. Blast 'em all! Then there's a group 
five enemies. A well-aimed charged laser will wipe 'em out. This gives you a 
Laser Power-up.



2: Slippy and the Gorge
-----------------------
Right off the bat, Slippy gets in trouble! Shoot the enemy behind _it_ (read 
the character profiles) and it'll thank you. In the gorge, some enemies will 
start shooting at you from behind. These enemies are harmless... so shoot 
the living h*** out of 'em!


3: City Intro
-------------
There will be four enemies to shoot so... shoot them! Now go ahead and 
you'll see an opening in a small building on the ground. There's a shield 
ring in it. Quickly turn to the right, holding Z to help. Then fire at the 
door in the other building. There is now a bomb.


4: Your First Garuda Encounter
------------------------------
Now fly to your right and you'll see two flying dudes and an odd thing on 
the ground. This is a Garuda. If you want the Laser Power-Up badly, boost 
for it; the Garuda will push over the building. Otherwise, kill it. The 
points are worth it.


5: Watch Out Fox!
-----------------
Kill the tanks and the group of harmless hovering guys. There will be more 
tanks, a Garuda, and then Peppy will warn you of the 'bogey' on your tail. 
Press the brake and blast the poor suckers. Now, there's a hovering guy. 
Shoot him, and shoot the door behind him. Fire a bomb at the falling 
apartments and you'll take care of everyone in the area.


6: Falco and the Antennas
-------------------------
There goes Falco, trying to be amazing (...ly stupid). Better save him. 
After killing all the enemies in the area. A few tanks, a few hovering 
dudes. [sighs] Well, then boost up to Falco and destroy the enemies with a 
bomb. Now navigate through the antennas and pick up the bomb. The Laser 
isn't worth it.


7: Platforms and Garudas
------------------------
Yay. Guys on platforms and on the ground. Shoot them. If you get them all, 
you get a Supply Ring. Now two Garudas will assault you. Kill them before 
they throw their beams. Whoo! No, I don't know why I did that.


8: Skiers on the Water
----------------------
You will now see skiers on the water! Shoot them for four points each; but, 
do you see an arch? Fly through it and pull a loop. Yay! A bomb! Now head 
back to land after killing everyone.


9: Route 1: To Granga
---------------------
Shoot the two firebirds before they drop their explosive eggs. There will 
also be Moles up ahead to shoot. Don't miss the Laser Power-Up if you're at 
twin. Off to Granga! See Bosses section.


10: Route 2: To Attack Carrier
------------------------------
Go through the waterfall and bomb the firebirds ahead. Then bomb the Moles. 
Destroy the two waves of fighters and you will get a Laser and a Shield 
Ring. (echoing) Now... for... Attack Carrier! See Bosses section.

* Completely Incomplete


********************

You decide to take a shortcut through the Asteroid field and General Pepper 
tells you there's strange activity there. You decide to investigate. Just 
hope Andross' forces haven't inhabited the area...


********************

Mission: #2

Area: Asteroid Field (unusually dense)
Vehicle: Arwing
Medal: 200 points needed


********************
My Level Comment
********************
You won't find this very often, so when you do, read it!

Why is Meteo so dense? I read a book that said, "in an asteroid field, the 
asteroids are between 1000 - 100 000 km. away from each other." The 
asteroids in Meteo, however, are between 10 - 20 METERS apart! Could someone 
PLEASE tell me what's going on? Did Earth just send out a whole bunch of 
asteroids into space, or is this game just real unrealistic? I'm so 
confused! Ohh!


********************
How to Beat Route #1
********************
All you need to do is play through the level and defeat the Meteo Crusher at 
the end.


********************
How to Beat Route #2
********************
Near the end, there will be things that resemble checkpoints. Fly through 
them and you will go faster. Fly through all of them to warp to the warp 
section and head to Katina.


********************
Walkthrough
********************


1: Asteroid Intro
-----------------
The level is started off in an asteroid field. How... interesting. The good 
thing is that you can shoot the asteroids for points! There's are also grey 
asteroids that, if you fly through, will provide a Laser Power-Up. Be happy, 
very happy.


2: Ambush!
----------
There will be an... ambush! Once you come up to the greyer (???) type 
asteroids, Peppy will say, "Be careful! It's a trap!" Heed his warning and 
get ready to use a bomb because... butterfly monsters from beyond the grave! 
Fire A bomb. Not TWO bombs. Then get rid of the rest using your normal 
lasers. Hee, hee, die! Hee, hee, hee, hee!


3: Hopping and... Snakes?
-------------------------
Yes, you will see a Hop-bot and some snakes. Shoot the snakes first and then 
-- if you've destroyed one -- aim at the Hop-bot. Move upwards and shoot the 
other snake as he passes under you. Then you will see three items, go for 
the bottom one and pull a loop. If you don't bite (my shorts), you'll have 
gotten them all.

4: The BIG Ones
---------------
As slippy calls them, they're the big ones. Asteroids! Not... you know! 
Well, there's a Laser Power-Up that is obtained if you fly through the four 
asteroids. Then there's the big ones. Fly past them and do what everyone 
tells you. There. I'm not gonna say something funny... oh, all right! Ufa! 
Hee, hee!


5: The Crate... Among Other Things
----------------------------------
Once you get out of the BIG ones, there will be some enemies. Fire a bomb at 
them and then listen to the, "bee, beep, bee, beep." As Peppy tells you, 
that's ROB64. Reply, and there will be a crate -- A ROB64 crate. Shoot it 
and PULL A LOOP! There were enemies behind you! Kill them as you collect 
your item.

* This is where I trail off.

Corneria
------------------------------


********************
Granga
********************
Difficulty: *

This is pretty easy, but there is one hard point: the extra Arwing. I'll 
explain this in the secrets section.

Any-hoo, after the 'all range mode' cut-scene, you are faced with Granga. 
Start to pummel his legs with laser fire and pull a turbo boost under his 
legs. Execute a U-turn and if he didn't fall, shoot his legs again, this 
time he should definitely fall.

As he's falling, turbo boost through his legs again and do another U-turn, 
now bomb and fire at his green backpack like crazy! Repeat as necessary.

Yay! The evil robot blew up in the worst explosion ever! Yippee!


********************
Attack Carrier
********************
Difficulty: *

Just another simple boss but can pose a slight challenge for beginners. 
Still only one star.

As Peppy advises, "Incoming enemy from behind. Drop altitude." Do so (drop 
altitude means go down, Einstein). He'll pass you, and then you can go up. 
Yay! He's got a present for ya! Too bad it's enemies. As they come out, 
shoot the openings from which they come. They will eventually go.

At this time he'll start to shoot at you. Shoot back. This will actually 
start depleting his life. Keep at it until... bye-bye Attack Carrier! See 
ya... NEVER AGAIN!

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

------------------------------
Meteo
------------------------------


**********************
Meteo Crusher
**********************
Difficulty: **

This boss is harder than the Cornerian bosses but is still pretty easy 
compared to the others ahead.

This boss is split into sections. The first being the energy absorption 
shield. This shield absorbs everything that is shot into it and it shoots 
back at you. The way to avoid it is to find the crack in it. As it spins, 
there will be yellow triangles in the crack. Shoot them until all of them 
explode.

The next section is the Particle Beam. A beam will fire at you in okay 
effects (actually, they are... ROTTEN! hee, hee). There will be a yellow 
diamond in the middle; shoot it between the times he shoots a beam at you.

The last section is the rings (I couldn't think up a good name). They're 
these pink rings that the Crusher throws at you. There are two yellow 
rectangles you must shoot. In between rings, shoot them. To avoid the rings, 
pull a loop.

(dryly) You beat the boss. Yay.

Fortuna
------------------------------


********************
Star Wolf Team
********************
Difficulty: ***

The Star Wolf Team... this time, is a little easy. Just wait until next 
time... heh, heh, heh... how many times have you told me to shut up? Hmm?

Any-hoo, (I love that word) they will come at you a the beginning, after 
ROB64 tells you there's a bomb planted at the base. If you want, press Start 
at they're opening sequence (showing their awesome Wolfen 1s) to skip it. 
Well, simply shoot them! If you find bullets flying past you pull a loop and 
Star Wolf will go, "What the heck?" and then you can pump him full of 
plasma! Also, you don't even have to beat them, because they'll fly away 
before the bomb blows.

Oh, and one last thing, if Slippy calls for help, help it (no-one really 
knows Slippy's gender).

********************
Spyborg
********************
Difficulty: **

What can I say? Easy boss, easy level. Good?

That thing... it's weird. Any-hoo, (I told you I loved that word) you should 
see it coming by. This is the time that it will say, "You are an enemy," and 
it will attack. Swerve to avoid the rings and you'll do just fine. Just 
attack the yellow parts on the head and it'll blow off, killing it.

Yay! You beat Spyborg-- What? It came back to life! Oh, no... oh, well.

Now giant, metal boards will be flung at you from off screen. Go to the 
upper right to avoid them. Shoot the [gasps] RED thing on it's head until it 
dies and-- Slippy! Get out of there! Whack! There it goes... you took to 
long... better go get it (this only happens if you're REALLY slow, so don't 
worry... unless you _want_ to go to Titania).

After Spyborg! Whack! Pow! Zap! Yay! It died, and it left electro magnetic 
thingies! Hee, hee, hee!

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

------------------------------
Titania
------------------------------


********************
Goras
********************
Difficulty: ***

Beginners will find this boss a mutual challenge. What does mutual mean?

Any-hoo, (shoot me, I love a word. I need help) coming up to Goras finds you 
with three of his four hands; one of which has Slippy. Shoot them a couple 
of times, avoiding the attacks in the process. Swerve side to side to 
accomplish this. They will run away. We won! Only... they took Slippy. Oh, 
well. We can always find another-- Slippy! There you are! And you brought a 
friend... grrr...

(sadly) Well here's the real Goras. Yay. Better kill 'im. Any-hoo,(startin' 
to bug ya, I know... it bugs me) you begin by shooting his arms (or... 
whatever they are) and they will fall off. You need to save the 'Slippy Arm' 
for last. He... err, she... um, it will fly away. Leaving YOU with Goras! 
Good for nothing little... um... yeah. Continue your assault on the last arm 
and finally, the stomach. Shoot it with anything and everything.

I forgot to mention the attacks! Well, I-I mean any-hoo, Goras will attack 
you with his arms; swerve to avoid. His tail will also assault you, which it 
may be a good idea to hover. (happily) Finally, he'll charge up a laser 
attack on you. There's hardly any way to avoid it except madly hovering and 
swerving.

There he goes. See ya! Ahh! His head fell right in your face! Eww... gross!

********************
Star Wolf Team
********************
Difficulty: ***

This is cut and pasted from Fortuna's because it's pretty much the same. I'm 
cheap! Any-hoo... hee, hee, hee!

If you want, press Start at they're opening sequence (showing their awesome 
Wolfen 1s) to skip it. Well, simply shoot them! If you find bullets flying 
past you pull a loop and Star Wolf will go, "What the heck?" and then you 
can pump him full of plasma! Also, you don't even have to beat them, because 
they'll get killed once you destroy the core, they go boom too.

Oh, and again. They find Slippy expendable, heh, heh, heh.


********************
Core
********************
Difficulty: ***

The core isn't really a boss, but it deserves credit.

The core will appear after a while, just listen for Peppy to say, "I see the 
enemy core." Then it will pop out of the center. I hope you've got a few 
bombs because you should fire those at it. You want to destroy the yellow 
things. Lasers still work though, but be careful; after a yellow thing is 
destroyed, a blue laser fires back at you. Dodge them.

Wow! A multi-coloured explosion! Yay! Christmas... BOOM! Now, off to Venom 
1...

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

------------------------------
Katina
------------------------------


********************
Saucerer
********************
Difficulty: **

The mighty Saucerer of Oz! [trumpet blows badly] Wait... that's sorcerer of 
Oz. Ohh... that is... the mighty Saucerer of Katina! [trumpet blows]

Any-hoo, (if I had something funny to say, err, type, I would) as you 
probably have guessed, the Saucerer is well... a flying saucer! It will fly 
over, after you have shot down ten ships (not counting the Cornerian troops) 
and it'll open up it's little hangars in the ensued cut-scene and _more_ 
little ships will come out making your life a living h*** (can't swear; on a 
library computer). Oh, and did I mention Bill Grey, the dog is here 'helping 
you'. Any-hoo, (I'm seeing a psychiatrist) shoot the hangars that pop down 
and they will blow giving you a 'Hit+5' and a job well done. After ALL of 
them go (or you take too long) the core will appear, getting ready for the 
final attack. Don't let it; shoot it, the core. It will stop and crash after 
a while. If you don't kill it, it will blow the Katina base. (dryly) Yay.

The level is done, over with, kaput! Kaput? Where do I come up with these 
words?

********************
Vulcan
********************
Difficulty: ***

The boss that everyone thinks is stupid. No, really! Falco even calls 
Andross an insane fool! Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!

(Igor voice from "Frankenstein") It looks like an messenger of evil, Dr. 
Kratt. What should we do? (normal voice) Shoot it! Shoot it's arms! Okay... 
but really shoot it's arms. They will fall off for you. As you are doing 
this don't forget to avoid his attacks. They are as follows: Rock Spit, 
shoot the rocks, get the upgrades; Lava Wave, Vulcan will dive into the 
lava, creating a wave; and Swipe, a mere slap or punch to the Arwing. All of 
these you swerve to the side to avoid.

Any-hoo, ([maniacal laughter] the doctors... they say... I'm hope-hope... 
less... [evil giggling] [cell door shutting]) the head is now your primary 
target. Fire at will! As you are firing, two _new_ attacks will be unleashed 
on you: a new, bigger edition of Lava Wave; and a sort of 'body attack'. He 
flies out of the lava and spins. As he does so, do your best to avoid the 
fire-balls that come at you.

(Scotty voice from "Star Trek") The Vulcan is dead sir... and the 
transporters are at full capacity. (normal voice) Well... that was weird, 
but the Vulcan's head fell off! [evil giggling] [cell door shutting]

********************
Mechbeth
********************
Difficulty: ***

Why do the level and the boss have such a similar name? Because the game 
designers were lazy, that's why! What a weird train, huh?

Any-hoo, (if you e-mail me about this, I'll reply: "Who cares; read the 
Introduction.") this boss is easy. Well, sort of... you first must shoot off 
his head and mouth. This may pose a challenge due to the fact that he will 
attack. If you see him charge up (he'll look really gay in the process) 
beware of falling thingies! These posts will attack you. Well not really 
_attack_ more of "stand in your way." Any-hoo, (come join me in the mental 
hospital) he will also try to eat you and throw you up. This hurts -- a lot. 
You can avoid these by swerving to avoid. "You can avoid these by swerving 
to avoid." Geez!

The harder part is to shoot the rest of his life away. This is accomplished 
when he fires his boxes at you. The boxes are fired out of a hole that is 
created on the back of the train. Shoot at this hole and Mechbeth will go... 
CRAZY! Really! He goes nuts! This is your chance to shoot him. As the beam 
that Goras fires at you, Mechbeth has one of his own. Hover and swerve 
violently to avoid.

There he goes...

{SPOILER -- CONTINUE AT YOUR OWN RISK}

...right into the train. Boy is he an idiot, or what? Oh well, we won so it 
doesn't matter, does it? I have a lot of questions, don't I? Hee, hee, hee!


********************
The Switches
********************
Difficulty: **

This is easy! So easy, I put it in the FAQ! [evil giggles] [cell door 
shutting]

This is pretty easy, so you shouldn't have any problems. There are eight 
switches; you need to shoot them all to 'accomplish' the mission. Otherwise, 
you need to fight Mechbeth. The locations will be in point form:


Switch #1
---------
On the right side of the track; after the building that's after the silver 
rings.


Switch #2
---------
Near the first switch.


Switch #3
---------
On the left side of the track; near the first switch.


Switch #4
---------
Opposite the track of the third on a building. Easier to get while hovering.


Switch #5
---------
On the left side of the track. Appears after ROB 64 calls you.


Switch #6
---------
In front of a door you must shoot to open on the right side of the track.


Switch #7
---------
On the left side of the track in front of a building. Found after the sixth 
one.


Switch #8
---------
Opposite the seventh. If Falco is here, he'll shoot it for you. Yippee!

That takes care of the switches! Enjoy the cut-scene and don't enjoy Area 
6... heh... heh... heh...

MANGLE!!! Phew! Had to get that out! Hee, hee!

The point of this is to get you ready to _battle_ the Shogun Warlord. So, 
all you do is shoot at them! Pretty easy I'd say. There, it's over. Okay, 
all right, I'll tell you more... sheesh! Any-hoo, (put down the gun... you 
don't want to shoot me. I'm writing this FAQ! [gunshot]Ohh...) they attack 
by shooting lasers. That's it. Oh! Don't forget that if you can't find them, 
pull a U-turn! There. I'm done. There! I'm done, already! [evil giggling] 
[cell door shutting]

There they go! Bye-bye! See ya in h***! Heh, heh, heh.

Shogun Warlord
********************
Difficulty: ***

Easy-peasy (???)! What? Where DO I come up with these words?

NOTE: Cut and pasted from above.

This should be as hard as the Shogun Warriors were to you. If not? Who 
cares? So, all you do is shoot at him! Pretty easy I'd say. There, it's 
over. Okay, all right, I'll tell you more... sheesh! Any-hoo, ([groans of 
pain] what the-- [gunshot] ohh... that hurt-- [multiple gunshots]) they 
attack by shooting lasers. That's it. Oh! Don't forget that if you can't 
find them, pull a U-turn! There. I'm done. There! I'm done, already! [evil 
giggling] [cell door shutting]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!! Ka-boomies! Hee, hee! Ding-dong, the 
thing is dead! Which old thing? The stupid thing! Ding-dong, the stupid 
thing is dead!

********************
Bacoon
********************
Difficulty: ***

Another easy boss. Ho-hum... kill it... ho-hum... hee, hee!

First, destroy the things on top with torpedoes. Do this for two reasons:
1.  They shoot snake-like creatures at you.
2.  They give you four points each.
Any-hoo, (I'm just not gonna say anything) after they're gone, focus on the 
muscles stretched between the top and the bottom of the Bacoon. Fire 
anything at them. Just be sure to watch out for the pearls that it spits at 
you. They will turn bright-coloured, this is your chance to fire a homing 
torpedo at one of them. Then, repeat with the other. After both of them are 
destroyed, then the top will fall off, revealing the eye. Fire at it's outer 
shell until it flies off. Then, fire a homing torpedo at the eye. This will 
start to hurt it. Again, repeat.

Wow, it died. I'm so happy for you! Let's have a party with... [muffled 
voice] [muffled screaming] [silence]

********************
Sarumarine
********************
Difficulty: ***

The Sarumarine is a Submarine that is inferior to the Blue-Marine but that 
doesn't matter because your flying the Arwing, hee, hee!

Any-hoo, (I know, I know... I'll stop saying it... maybe) the Sarumarine 
will _swim_ past you and attack you with it's ball thingy. Swerve to avoid 
(as with EVERY OTHER ATTACK IN THIS GAME!!! Phew...). Any ways (I didn't say 
any-hoo... [multiple gunshots]) fire bombs at it's smoke-stacks. Don't worry 
if your supply is limited; Sarumarine will fire pearls at you with bombs 
inside. Shoot the peals to uncover the bombs. Any-hoo, ([multiple gunshots] 
[gun clicking]) after the smoke-stacks have fallen off, shoot the sides. 
They will fall off. Then this... thing will send out the crane. Fire bombs 
at the crane and it will fall of too. The last side must be bombed and then 
attack it with whatever you've got. Bombs, lasers, what have you.

(dryly) It died. I'm so happy. Any-hoo... ([multiple gunshots])

********************
Gorgon
********************
Difficulty: ****

A _hard_ boss... finally! When was there a four star boss before? Never! 
Hmm... very interesting Dr. Kratt (hee, hee).

What? It's the Saucerer! Oh, no... it's just Gorgon. Kill it! Kill it! Kill 
it! Kill it! Kill it! Okay, that seems a little harsh... let's blow it up! 
Well you'll be faced with Gorgon's 'open' stage. Shoot the red energy balls. 
He will lose a little bit of life. Now the tentacles will appear; shoot them 
frantically. At best, you'll get two before he disappears, but now, aim for 
one. It will blow off and he'll disappear. Now, destroy the other two in the 
same fashion. Then he'll send out two waves of fighters. They're easy-peasy. 
Now he 'opens up to you'. Shoot the three, red energy balls and he'll turn 
red. Now the tentacles will appear; shoot them frantically. At best, you'll 
get two before he disappears, but now, aim for one. It will blow off and 
he'll disappear. Now, destroy the other two in the same fashion. Now it's 
time for... the... energy beam! If Falco is present wait for when he says, 
"look out Fox!" Then wait in the lower-left corner. If he isn't there, 
you'll have to choose by your own judgment. Then destroy the energy balls 
and shoot the core with everything.

There you go, off to Venom 2... heh... heh... heh...

Venom (heh, heh)

********************
Golmech
********************
Difficulty: ****

Golmech is probably just part of an ancient civilization, but it is a weapon 
of destruction.

Golmech is sort of difficult. You need to shoot it's body parts, avoiding 
the booby-traps it sets for you. Then, shoot the head. Pretty soon, you'll 
be done. Also; the booby-traps it sets for you are only walls attacking you.


********************
Andross' Robot
********************
Difficulty: ***

This Andross is only a robot. Therefore, it is easy.

Any-hoo, (...) shoot his hands. They will blow up. If he tries to suck you 
up, fire a bomb. Also, if he tries to swipe you, go up or down. Then, shoot 
his eyes. This will blow off his face, revealing the robot inside. Shoot it 
with bombs or lasers.

It's finally over! Andross is just a robot... but who's that laughing... 
hmm...


********************
Star Wolf Team
********************
Difficulty: *****

The oh, so disfigured Star Wolf Team! If you enter this from Fortuna, this 
makes sense, but if you take a different route, they are still disfigured. 
Hmm...

This is a HARD boss for beginners. You _need_ hyper lasers for this. Even I 
need hypers for this... but... uh... forget that! Shoot them as fast as you 
can; no bombs, no lock-on lasers (aww...). I know you will probably die 7-9 
times. So don't feel bad if you do. Any-hoo, (if you shoot me, I won't give 
you-- [gunshot] this-- [gunshot] candy... ohh... [multiple gunshots]) if you 
see bullets flying past you, pull a loop and Wolf will fly past you. Pump 
him full of plasma! Hee, hee, hee! Shoot all of them. If your wingmen ask 
for help; give it to them. Their attackers will attack you if their not 
there.

Well... there gone! Now, you're, "Goin' it alone from here."


********************
Andross' Real Self
********************
Difficulty: *****

Andross is very simple compared to the Star Wolf Team; and I know a path 
that'll load you up. It is in a diagram:

<--
-->
<--
<--
-->
-->

Note that you can take any route to Andross.

Go to Andross and shoot his hands. They will blow up. If he tries to suck 
you up, fire a bomb. Also, if he tries to swipe you, go up or down. Then, 
shoot his eyes. This will blow off his face, revealing the brain inside. 
Then, his eyeballs come out. Boost over the left side of the brain, and then 
you can start to shoot the eyes. After they've gone, you can focus on the 
brain. Shoot the green medulla and he'll die after a while. Just watch out 
for the 'poop' that he 'eliminates' and the fact that he chews you if you 
get _too close_. If he decides to disappear, then pull a loop.

He's dead! He just won't go alone... aaaahhhhh!!!

------------------------------
The End
------------------------------
Your Father?! Oh... my... god... he's alive! He's leading you out of here! 
Yippeeeee!!!

After the beginning, use the boost and follow your father. It's almost 
over... [ship engine quietly zipping] [loud explosion]

[happy music] Yay! You did it! You read my boss FAQ without dying! And you 
beat the game! YAY!!! Yippee!

Don't ever give up my son...

{SPOILER -- CONTINUE AT YOUR OWN RISK}

You turn down General Pepper's offer and start to run. ??? It confused me, 
too. Well, at least you beat the game, now enter your initials.

Oh, yeah; if you die after all my 'great help' then you're hopeless.

Cheats
------------------------------
So far, no button cheats have been found for Star Fox. I don't think they're 
coming.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

------------------------------
Expert Mode
------------------------------
There is an expert mode for Star Fox! I knew you wouldn't care. Any-hoo, you 
get it by getting all the medals from Main Game. Then little arrows will 
appear on the Main Game 'selector'. Press left or right on the Control Stick 
to get to Expert Mode.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

------------------------------
Expert Training
------------------------------
If you get Expert Mode, (see above) switch to it, and select Training, it 
will be harder. Whoo. How interesting.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

------------------------------
Sound Test
------------------------------
If you get all the medals in Main Game, there will be little arrows on the 
sides of the Sound 'selector'. Press left or right on the Control Stick and 
it will say Expert. Pick it for a sound test. Press C-Down to change the 
display.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

------------------------------
More VS. Vehicles
------------------------------
To get more V.S. Characters, simply get a medal on Venom. In Main Game, you 
can play as the Landmaster, Expert unlocks the actual characters. Yay. I'm 
getting so sick of this.

Extra Arwings
------------------------------


***********
In Corneria
***********
In Corneria, you can get the extra Arwing by flying through Granga's legs, 
and pulling a loop without hitting him. Sounds easy... but try it... hee, 
hee!


***********
In Sector Y
***********
In Sector Y, you can get the extra Arwing when your teammates form a 
triangle. Boost up to make it a diamond, and the Arwing is yours! [maniacal 
laughter]


********
In Venom
********
You MUST be in route #2. Once you beat the Star Wolf Team, turn in this 
fashion:

I guess I could have said go right, then left, but that's no fun.

Slow Slippy

If you watch the ending VERY closely, you'll see that Slippy is slower than 
the rest and it falls behind!


*****************
Asteroid Hologram
*****************
At the opening scene of Meteo, the Great Fox comes in, firing at all the 
asteroids and missing two. The first, which you can plainly see, blows up on 
the outer wing. The other, on the other side which is harder to see, flies 
THROUGH the left wing! Wow!
