Strider 2 (Playstation)
Out from the underbelly of a dark and dangerous future, emerges an elusive hero who wages war for peace and justice. Now, one of the world's most legendary heroes, Strider Hiryu, returns on the PlayStation® game console. Armed with his light sword, Cypher, Strider blazes through the darkness to battle the evil dictator, Grandmasters. Featuring 2 discs of gritty action adventure, this highly anticipated sequel also includes an incredible bonus... the original Strider game.
A home version of Strider 2 was released for the PlayStation in 2000 as a 2-disc set, with a second disc devoted to a direct port of the original Strider coin-op. Due to a labeling error in the American release, the Strider 2 discs were labeled as the original Strider.
ProTip: Finishing both games and saving the achievements on the same memory card unlocks a secret level in Strider 2: "Mission 00", a waterfall stage. Completion of all missions unlocks the former Strider Hien as a playable character, who wields two ranged cyphers; completion of the game using Hien unlocks the Boost skill for unlimited use in the game's menu.
