Title: RAFFLE: Strider Hiryuu WINNER CHOSEN
Post by: jtucci31 on October 13, 2015, 11:49:50 AM



Up for grabs is the Arcade Card version of Strider for PCE. Comes with a spine that is slightly faded. Not sure when I'll end this, so for now that is TBD.

-Minimum post count of 200. No turds please.
-You are not allowed to sell it. If you don't want it anymore, please re-raffle it off.
-You must play it and give it a go. I'm raffling it off because I no longer play it.

Ah, Strider, I bought this used in the 90's for like $15 via the back of EGM magazines and calling random game shops. I did so under the assumption I'd eventually get an Arcade Card too, but that never happened, so I finally got to beat it years later when emulation took off and MagicEngine made it possible. Anyway, it's a fine game, but I'd rather download the arcade ROM set for MAME and play the real thing. :)

OMG dude!!! How can you not have an Arcade Card!!!  :shock:  :wink:

===================

Anyway ... I remember the Strider hype when I pre-ordered my Super Grafx.

Because of that disappointment, I never bought the ACD game when it came out ... but have always wanted to play it ... and always wondered how it would have looked on the Super Grafx.

Please enter me in the raffle.

Thanks for doing this!  :D

Two exclusive PCE stages in Strider! No, they aren't amazing, but it's interesting to see how PCE version could (and should) have been SO MUCH MORE BETTERS than the actual game we got.

Any fan of Strider should have fun comparing this to arcade and Genesis version.

I loved the Genesis version as a kid, and I don't know if the PCE can challenge it...but you will have to decide for yourself.

Definitely a curious title.
Title: Re: RAFFLE: Strider Hiryuu
Post by: SignOfZeta on October 14, 2015, 01:40:50 PM
It should have been better than the arcade, frankly. It wasn't exactly a new game and the PCE has enough special powers at its disposal that it could have more than made up for any technical shortcomings it has compared to the original PCB. CD audio, nearly infinite storage, that kind of thing.
Title: Re: RAFFLE: Strider Hiryuu
Post by: ProfessorProfessorson on October 14, 2015, 02:57:07 PM
If Capcom had handled it it probably would have been closer to the arcade. NEC Avenue did however, and they tend to do stuff with their ports (add new content, and remix some things visually). As is though I still like this port more then the Mega Drive one. The MD one isn't perfect either. It has its own batch of issues, like no continues, details missing, as does the Genesis one (even less voice content and too easy, along with said graphical details missing that are gone on the MD version).

Real Strider fans are going to find charm and be attracted to any of the ports regardless. Anyone being super nit picky over either the PCE or Sega ports is just being anal and not paying the ports their due. All three ports are great fun. If you are a real Strider fan you can appreciate the ambition it had ot have taken to port the game over on anything. I mean, we are talking about Capcom here at their peak in arcade development. Stider is one of their greatest titles ever made. Knowing that going in had to cause a lot of stress for Sega and NEC Avenue.

To be honest I never played strider aside from the first level on a Mega Drive years ago. I played Osman though, in an arcade even, which is unfairly obscure in my opinion.

Hop hop hop hop hop aaagh. I am king. I am the true king. I rule the world.

I ceirtainly want to try Strider even if the PCE port is worse than the Mega Drive version.

I've never played this game and was in chat talking to a few other people about it. lukester said there is actually only one exclusive level in the PCE port. He also mentioned the Genesis version is harder than the PCE counterpart but he never really mentioned why though *shrugs*
Title: Re: RAFFLE: Strider Hiryuu
Post by: lukester on October 16, 2015, 01:11:14 PM
Siracha, it's because of the final level only. The first 4 levels are a breeze in the Genny port.

The pce version is also slower-paced, because bosses have dialogue. This is a little jarring. Movement is somewhat quicker though.

I like both ports. If the pce version had all the music then I would prefer it overall.

After reading insight from other who have played it on this thread I am more interested in the game.


I honestly wasn't sure what to expect since I have the PS COPY OF IT AND strider 2 which to be felt like the de facto versions to own.


But now with talk of extra level game play and sprit work my interest is peeked.

The Genesis version is the easiest of the three. Its difficulty was watered down drastically from the Mega Driver version to such a degree that to match it you have to go into the options and set it to hard to equal the normal mode of the MD and PCE ports.  The content exclusive to the PCE is the extra desert stage, cd soundtrack, and somewhat animated cut scenes that were extended somewhat to  provide a more detailed story.

Also worth mentioning, Grandmaster is missing the digitized speech near the end on the Genesis, and Hiryu is silent during his attacks on the Genesis port. Basically if you want the best versions, its the MD and PCE one.
