When Dinosaur Planet was first introduced to the world, it was scheduled to come out on the Nintendo64. It was also not a Star Fox game. The game was said to have very similar gameplay and control to The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. There was little known about the game, except that it inhabited a planet of dinosaurs. There was no doubt it would be good, since it is made by Rare, and the screenshots we saw were amazing. But then, a year of silence came and no more was heard about the game. It had dropped of the release lists altogether. Alot of people thought it changed platforms to the NIntendo Gamecube. It turns out, they were right, kind of.........

A little while after all the speculation about it being a Gamecube title was going on, E3 2001 came, and the game was unveiled as StarFox Adventures: Dinosaur Planet.  The game would feature the gang from Starfox64, except, my favorite, Falco.  It kept the same zelda-like control system, but had much larger environments and alot prettier graphics.

Fox has a sidekick named Prince Tricky in this game, he is a triceratops. The dictator of Dinosaur Planet, General Scales, is a green raptor. Peppy is in charge of directions, Slippy is the weapons expert, and Rob brings you extra supplies.

Fox can swim, walk on land, and fly through the air in his arwing. There are many ways to get around, and thats good, because the environments are huge.

Although we only saw this game in video form at E3, it will be playable at Spaceworld. It will most definately be one of the greatest games of all time.
