Developed by [[Argonaut Games]], ''Star Fox'' was released for the [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System]] in [[1993]], and was quite bold in breaking technical barriers with the new [[Super FX]] chip. The chip simulated three-dimensional graphics, a mind boggling notion since games at the time were typically made in 2-D. | Facing the wrath of the evil Emperor [[Andross]], [[Fox McCloud]] and his [[Star Fox Team]] take on evil as it threatens to overthrow the Lylat System.
