The result is a classic Strider look complete with a lot of dramatic camera panning and angles that just wouldn't be possible in a 2D game. The gameplay is classic 2D fare as well. It's too bad Capcom felt the need to allow players to continue endlessly. Chances are you'll finish this game in one sitting and never play it again. Strider 2 is a video game released in by Capcom, and is a follow-up to Strider I, the first game in the series, produced by the same company.
The game was released in Japan and was considered more popular than the original version. The action happens years after the events in the first game, when The Grandmaster returns to life after his death in the previous version. He took over the world again, but a new incarnation of Strider Hiryu, the main character of the game, appears to stop his plans. Strider Hiryu was the one fighting and bringing The Grandmaster to death in the first game, so they encounter again in Strider II.
The graphics of the game consist of 2D character sprites overlaid over 3D backgrounds. The gameplay is actually pretty much the same as in the 2D side-scrolling Strider I. The character can be controlled by an eight-way joystick and there are three action buttons. In this second version Strider can perform new actions, besides the ones in the first game. He can walk, jump, crouch, slide and climb walls and ceilings as in the original game, but he can also dash by pushing the joystick twice to left, double-jump by pressing jump in mid-air, and do a backward somersault jump while sliding.
Strider can perform a thrust jump when climbing a wall, by holding the joystick away from the wall and pressing the Jump button. Besides the normal sword attack from the original version, Strider can now "Savage Slash", possible by pressing the joystick down and up in mid-air. In this version of the game there is also a "Boost" option, which can be used if the character has at least one boost item in stock.
While the player is in this mode, he can shoot Plasma Waves with his sword until the Boos gauge. As the Boost item is, Strider can pick up power-up items in the game, such as health items, a cipher extension or other additional boosts.
That was a time when a new game meant new challenges and new discoveries. I guess that's what makes Strider so appealing. It's based on that mysterious source which turns games like Super Mario Bros, into classics.
As the s drew to a close, the nations of the world were finally working together, putting aside their differences to concentrate on making the planet a better place to live.
It seemed certain that the 21st century would be the best era that humanity had ever known. Then, one day, strange objects appeared in the skies over the European nation of Kazafu. Soon afterward, an army of strange creatures and machines appeared in Kazafu's capital, led by the self-proclaimed Grand Master Meio. In just a few days the invaders leveled the city and began marching across the continent. Soon the aliens held all of Europe.
No army in the world could stop them. And still they advanced Reports of the alien invasion were picked up on the small island of Moralos, home of the Striders. This elite band of warriors was Earth's last hope of defeating the alien hordes.
The Striders began their attack by sending out Hiryu, the youngest man ever to become an A-class Strider. Strider Hiryu sets off on his dangerous mission, alone but strengthened by the encouraging words of his fellow Striders. Being the first 8-Meg monster cart to hit the store shelves, Strider is about to make another comeback on the Genesis! All of the classic action is back, along with plenty of levels and challenge that will keep any fan of the original busy for quite some time!
Many improvements have been added. The swinging blade is fast and well animated, and the movements are done with more style! Not only is that, but plenty of new weapons available. This is just a preview, with a lot more to come later! Stay tuned to GameFabrique for the latest info on Strider 2! Invaders from the third moon have come to take over the Earth! Hiryu - the last of the Strider order-must wield his plasma sword against the invaders and bring peace back to the world once again!
The award winning Genesis Strider is being converted to the Master System. It will be a 4 meg cart and, as you can see from the pix, this soft will probably be the best SMS cart ever! Sega's long awaited adaptation of Capcom's arcade game - Strider is now a reality! Containing a full 8 megabits of cartridge memory - the largest ever for a U. It's the year and the problems between the Russians and the Americans have progressively gotten worse.
You, Strider, must penetrate the Russians robotic forces in order to exterminate the leaders who have initiated this conflict. And this is your mission. After getting dropped off at the outside of one of the Russian fortresses you immediately encounter fierce resistance from the enemy. Still, you must fight your way through an onslaught of Russian forces armed only with your lightning quick saber, keen wits and acrobatic gymnastic skills. Make it through the fortress and it's off to the bitter cold mountains of Siberia where you have to scale the ice-coated sheer cliffs while fighting off killer attack dogs.
All of this only to reach another fortress whose entrance is guarded by ' Pong ' - a gigantic, full screen, mechanical gorilla! Once inside, the soldiers attack from above as you progress through a maze of huge mechanical devices.
Survive this and move on to the jungle and two more intense levels! Based on the Sega arcade game, this 8 meg Genesis version faithfully duplicates all of the levels found on the coin-op. You are a special agent who has been dropped deep inside of Russian territory in order to exterminate the evil rulers who want to take over the world. Fight through fortresses, in the mountains of Siberia, and in the hot jungles.
Take on androids, attack dogs and even amazons in this action filled game. Like Ghouls and Ghosts , this Capcom arcade translation is done to near carbon-copy perfection on the Genesis. The 8-Meg of power inside this cart displays some of the best graphics ever and, combined with the strong play mechanics, blend together to create an awesome game.
What a game! It's unbelievable what just a little bit more memory can do to a cart. Everything is here from the coin-op and it plays fantastic! Spectacular graphics, decent tunes and great game play! One look and you'll see why it's the game of the year! From the game play to the graphics to the rockin' musical backgrounds, Strider is top class all the way!
The action is intense and non-stop, and the sights along the way are so detailed you might think you're at the arcades. A few features are missing from the coin-op, but still first-rate! Why is this game more popular now than when it was a coin-op game? If you've played that one, then here it is exact as can be and just as much fun if not more. Get your hands on this as soon as you can 'cause it's destined to disappear fast! How about the coin-op ' Willow ' next?
One of the most eagerly awaited Nintendo games to come along in a while! Strider is loosely based on the Capcom coin-op of the same name. The goal of the game is to defeat the Russian army and prevent total world-domination from the pinkos. Strider combines elements from scrolling action contests and adventures games as well. You must locate specific items to progress to higher levels of play. There is also a limited amount of energy and power that your hero possesses which must be monitored carefully.
Strider offers plenty to interact with, lots of weapons and implements to find, and an expansive adventure that will keep you occupied for some time. The graphics are above-average and help compliment the rest of the game. Capcom's second hit of the season behind Mega Man 2!
Strider is good, and like Bionic Commando, has a variety of stages to conquer. Definitely not the average action game, Strider is a cut above the rest. If you like games like Bionic Commando, you'll like Strider. It's a very good game that has all the options and play features you'd expect to find in this type of game. The one thing I didn't like was having to traverse each level and then transfer back to the main screen over and over again.
The NES version of Strider is not as good as the arcade, adopting a different storyline and look. The graphics and play are good, the maze is very complex, and many hidden items to find.
The Password isn't really needed because the game isn't too hard, but the last Boss is very challenging. Take to arms and eliminate the evil creatures invading your land. As the Strider, you must use all of your resources to defeat the enemy and rescue your comrades at arms. Incredible graphics and smooth game play combine to make Strider a sensational title!
Strider receives his orders and is dropped in the heart of Russia, armed with only a lightning quick sword. The task is to infiltrate the Red Army and return enemy secrets to your superiors. You are attacked by the KGB , journey to the snowcapped mountains of Siberia, and the Lowlands, where jungle tribes wait with poison spears and arrows. If you don't get to him before he destroys you the world will fall under Russian control!
The free world relies on your success. The year is AD. In Russia, the evil Grand Master Meio has begun his insane plot to take over the universe. A lone figure drops from a stealth glider into Meio's base. His mission is to defeat the Grand Master and put an end to his plotting once and for all. Converted from the classic arcade game, Strider lets you run, jump, perform acrobatics and climb walls and overhangs.
You wield a plasma sword, called a Cypher, through 5 levels fighting robots and guards, with mid- and end-level bosses. For years Meio the Grand Master has monitored planet Earth and all its inhabitants.
