Now this is really awesome. Back in the days, I was a die-hard console fan and loved my SNES. And no, I don’t mind admitting it as I strongly believe that consoles and PCs can co-exist. Star-Fox was one of my favourite games and like most of its fans, I’d really love to see a remake of it. And have you ever wondered how it would look like in current-generation consoles and PC?

Bloody hell, I’d buy it. As this is not going to happen though, enjoy for the time being this CGI remake.
