Man, someone’s pushing all my nostalgia buttons lately. Last month we got treated to Hard Corps: Uprising, a semi-sequel to my favorite Contra game ever, and now we’ve got Moon Diver, The spiritual successor to Strider. Is it faithful to the original? And more importantly: even if it is faithful, does it matter at this point?

Just not the same without the communist robot gorillas.
There’s Run Saber on the SNes. 2 players simultaneous. I think they could have taken a few pointers from that game. Had all the same problems and pitfalls. Same reception too.
I tried the demo a couple of days ago and wasn’t a huge fan.
