On paper it sounds amazing (Strider meets Contra 3 meets Super Metroid meets a host of other games) but it's criminally short. Still a pretty good game though.

My attitude is that ripping off one thing is bad, but if you rip off at least two different things and make the elements you stole work together, you've come back around to being creative again.

Just found this. My new fav channel there should be (___)drunk for all the good consoles

@crispyjuice2110 2 года назад

Just beat this. Damn, what an awesome game. The enemy and stage designs in the final level felt straight out of H.R. Giger's mind. I'm always impressed with how fast SNES Drunk can finish games. Sure this game wasn't long or particularly hard, but it still took me a couple days to get through. Well worth the time too!

@EzekielBuchheit 10 лет назад

I love what you do. I hope you get more attention. Solid voice over; too the point; all around well done.

Keep going off track. For some reason in all your videos, the candid random thoughts are my favorites.

Anyone who played this game can remember the grunts when the characters attack, which also play during the background music. The music is so catchy, too!

@shanestone9770 3 месяца назад

I recommend this game, it’s really fun, especially if you’re a fan of the Strider series. Most people who know about this game would most likely be Strider fans themselves, but this game is criminally underrated. I’d say pick up a copy and pop it in your ol’ SNES.

@DarkScorpion64 5 лет назад

I always thought this was a Strider sequel back then. ^^;

I going go ahead say it but i prefer alot older games over more modern ones due to simplicity and plug and play get into it and able easy get out of it without devoting entire frigging life to it. like most all modern games require you to do on current next gen platforms.

@Video-Games-Are-Fun 6 лет назад

you are actually wrong. older games were TERRIBLY difficult and required hours to master. today's games are far better geared to casual gamers especially adults who just want to have fun and enjoy the experience. you meant to say games that are simple fun plug and play rather than games from the past. what i personally hate about modern games is the damn menus and loading. i just wanna press start key (like castlevania's title screen says on the nes) and play. leave me alone. stop bugging me ala google's message when they bother you.

@adolfozaragoza6086 6 лет назад

@nogidoki3325 6 лет назад

Not all of the old games are terribly difficult even tho a ton of them had really limited lifes and continues they were fun. Modern games are hit or miss honestly,Too much trying to cash in like the generic beat-em-ups from the 90s with not many really unique games,Way too forgiving to the point that even the shittiest players would be able to finish them at some point and the nerve to go for "realistic" when it just comes off as restricting for no reason and bland and every modern game these days has to have a multiplayer mode filled with rea;;y bpring modes with purchasable DLCS and In-game purchases with a shitty price.

@jclkaytwo Месяц назад

if you think that then you clearly haven't been keeping up with nintendo. they're still making the exact kinds of games you're looking for.

@kkzooi 5 лет назад

there was also a strider released on the nes. the nes game was later also released on gba in the in capcom classics mini mix along with bionic commando and mighty final fight

@Moleplay 9 лет назад

Very nice game. I remember as I bought this game in the nineties. Yes, the graphic is weak in compare to other SNES games. But I think the game has an very interesting leveldesign. It was one of my favourite SNES-games back then :)

@koopakape 7 лет назад

The graphics are weak? Compared to what? lol

@Moleplay 7 лет назад

Maybe Super Ghouls`n`Ghosts, Contar 3, Street Fighter II etc. ? Or in generall most capcom or konami ganes.

@HsienKoMeiLingFormerYANG 6 лет назад

@Video-Games-Are-Fun 6 лет назад

this sucker costs a pretty penny on ebay as of feb 2018. i think it was more affordable 3 years ago when you made this comment back in 2015.

@Alexcobra861 3 года назад

The license has belonged to SEGA since the takeover of ATLUS, it would be great if he remembered it to be able to use the license or even release it on SWITCH.

@damonblack1495 5 лет назад

@thcollegestudent 3 года назад

Your idea about the scientist reminds me of a couple episodes from Stargate actually.

@shanestone9770 3 месяца назад

I’ve actually played this game and honestly, it deserves a remaster, or sequels. Also, I hope Capcom one day buys the rights to the game and officially makes it part of the Strider franchise.

Super Metroid and Super Turrican came out one year after this game.

no, super turrican came out around the same time as this game. also, while super metroid came out after this game, the screw attack was in earlier metroid games too.

Wow. I didn't know this game was Uber expensive nowadays. But I did see repros for 15-20 bux so that's good. I don't mind those. To hell with paying 300-1000 dollars for a game when you can pay 20 bux!

I just wondered how strider is going to look like on the snes.

@Wolfdragon92584 5 лет назад

Sure this game is kind of a Strider ripoff, but not completely. It has a darker feel, and the music is totally in its own league. I LOVE the moody neon synths of the Hong Kong stage. The enemy design is also imaginative. That Stage 3 boss still freaks me out!! All in all, it's a solid game with a perfectly tuned difficulty. Call it Strider 1.5. Sure beats that piece of crap Strider Returns.

I don't think Raskolnikov felt guilty at all. I think his narcissus made him commit the crime and the gravity of what he did put him into a feverish stupor but his disgust was still with himself (again his narcissus). His own hero complex with Sonya fed his narcissus enough to give him relief for his self-loathing and enough to snap him out of it.

@SNESdrunk 7 лет назад

Because I was wrong

@Video-Games-Are-Fun 6 лет назад

no you weren't wrong. strider was indeed exclusive to genesis vs. snes which sadly did not get this capcom masterpiece. yes it came out on cd for turbo-grafx 16 as well as on playstation 1 (the strider 2 game had it). it also came out on other next gen systems but back then, if you had a super nes or genesis, you needed genesis to enjoy it.
