Weekend Retro Game Challenge : Strider for Sega Genesis FAILED!


Another check goes into the FAILED column for this Weekend Retro Game Challenge of Strider for the Sega Genesis. I just couldn't get into this game. Even after playing for a couple of hours I never found myself compelled to keep on going.


Strider is the story of Hiryu, who is the youngest man to reach the rank of an A-classed Strider, one of the last defenders of Earth. An alien force from a distant nebula has come to conquer the Earth and enslave it's people. The mastermind behind this evil plot is Meio who plans to rule the Earth from a space station called Third Moon. Strider must fight his way through five different stages and defeat Meio if the Earth is to have a future.

So whats my problem with Strider? To be honest I don't know. On paper this game should be one of my go to games. Maybe I didn't give it enough time. I'll have to come back to this one someday.
