Strider...

[termis]

Yeah, that article doesn't prove anything new to what many folks believed here (That that work that initially started on the SGX ended up going the ACD route).  It says nothing about the SGX work being far enough in to make anyone warrant believing that the floating pics are that of the rumored SGX proto.

And again, it really doesn't matter now, does it?  Even if a pretty good version of Strider showed up on the SGX, it likely wouldn't have been as good as the later releases (on PS, PS2, Xbox).

50% of the company are also sales and marketing, so it's hard to believe what they say. 

To be fair, I'm sure it's entirely possible they got some graphics, even perhaps a level & moving sprites on actual SGX hardware, but they sure didn't make it far enough to show the press.

 Well, it's official and on record. That's more that what's ever be said on this game, other than 'magazines' reporting on this game. So you have an official statement and magazines stating over the years about the progress status of the game (be it false pictures or not), makes a fairly strong case that it's more than just a 'myth'. Not saying anything else.

Yes, I was never on the side of saying it was a "myth".  I was a believer.   

But now with the evidence, it confirms my hunch that SGX Strider never left the programming labs.
