I liked Crash Bandicoot.
I'm arcade guy. PA! PA! PA! PA! PA! PA!
No love for having Strider transform into a robot or wield a shoulder mounted cannon?
Both the arcade original and its true sequel are great, and I don't think straying too far from that is a good idea. Let it be something like Capcom's Strider 2 with Battle Fantasia/Street Fighter IV caliber 2.5D graphics.
Rip off a few things from Cannon Dancer, and maybe even add 2-player action like Run Saber.
When Capcom lent the Strider franchise out, a total clusterfuck resulted. *cough* Journey From Darkness (I refuse to call that a Strider game). I don't want some outside developer turning this into JFD2.
I don't trust Backbone with this either. Let someone like SFIV's Dimps or Arc System Works do it instead, with Capcom Japan keeping a pointblank watch on things. I was kind of disappointed in 1942 Joint Strike, after being spoiled by 19XX (which I'm sure will remain the best one in the series- FOREVER). Commando 3 was sort of OK but not awesome, and the Johnny Bravo artstyle doesn't fit well. The thought of seeing Strider drawn like that is revolting.
Not really.
Finished in 2021: 8 games (PC: 4, PS4: 2, PS3: 1, X1: 1)
As bad as Journey From Darkness is, it's fucking brilliant compared to the original Strider II on Atari ST/Amiga.
Too Cool for Top 10 Lists
Ever since playing BC: Rearmed, I thought Strider would be perfect for that kind of revamp - either the original or the PSOne Strider II would work well like that.

Take Ninja Gaiden, put in a camera that actually works, add Strider Hiryu...and you have an instant hit.
I'll also gladly take a Strider "rearmed" as well.
I trust Capcom's ablity to revive old classics better than Sega- just watch the new Golden Axe fail.
