From joystiq:
I can see DMC gameplay working, but I'd rather a nice facelift for 2D gameplay, like Bionic Commando Rearmed did.Quote:
EGM's rumor-mongering editor amalgamation Quartermann has some info on another Capcom franchise that may get an update. Apparently Strider could be the next classic character to get a Bionic Commando upgrade, with the Q-mann saying that it could take on Devil May Cry-style gameplay.
Please, Capcom? Pretty please?
yeah, here comes the Megaman9-ized Strider
If it isn't in dev yet, that's what it is going to be
I'm down for the XBLA remake and a 3D sequel ala BC.
I don't mind having Strider go 3d but I don't like the idea of a DMC-ish game. There are enough 3d action games in the beat 'em up/adventure style. Something more platform-focused would be cooler.
they should just get the disney license again and redo ducktales
I'm having a shit night so I'll just jump to the "fuck off" section of the evening. If Capcom took Strider back to its roots I'd be thrilled, because the original arcade game looked fantastic. Go get a rom and start playing, and stop vomiting your pointless bullshit negativity everywhere.Quote:

Shit, for as good as Fantasy Zone II DX is, and what I hear about Gradius Rebirth, a CPS-style Strider would be awesome. Doubt that's really where they're going, though.
I wouldn't be surprised to see this come to fruition. Strider was probably bigger than Bionic Commando.
like melf said, something along the lines of bionic commando rearmed would be great. i still play strider 2 sometimes. i haven't played arcade strider in a while, though.
I see you completely misread the post and bitched about the polar opposite of what this rumour actually is. Well done.Quote:

NES wouldn't be the way to go, but if you could do a 16-bit style 2D game that played like Strider 2 (the real one, not the Euro one) it would be awesome.Quote:
