Difference between revisions of "Andross"

As consoles became more powerful and capable of rendering a higher number of polygons and highly detailed textures, Andross was given a makeover in [[Star Fox Adventures]]. Here, his dramatic return at the end of the game came as a figurative and literal twist as he had, for the majority of the game, hidden behind a statue of a [[Krazoa|Krazoan]] head. When, at the very end of the game, this head swivelled to reveal Andross' face on the other side, it became apparent that the designers took care in giving the character unsettling, almost demonic features, as well as a more advanced palette of facial expressions, and a small selection of lip-synced dialogue.

His nephew, [[Andrew Oikonny]], remained true to his uncle's inexplicable penchant for appearing as a massive floating head by building an airborne vehicle which mimicked Andrew's head and hands. This ridiculous weapon appeared at the end of the first level of [[Star Fox Assault]]. [[Fox McCloud]] quickly dispatched this poor fascimile. Its barely functioning remains, assumedly piloted by Andrew himself, was utterly obliterated by an [[Aparoid]] while delivering a megalomaniacal monologue.
