I think Hyru's graphics are far better on the Genesis than in the arcade. The arcade Hiryu has a retarded black outline that makes him look lame. Only the Genesis is powerful enough to not have the black line. Thank God for the Genesis' unlimited power.
I agree, but the improvement ends there. The rest of the game looks like ass in comparison to the arcade
Ok..maybe not *ass*, but....
I played Strider in it's prime at the local 7-11. They always had 4 arcade systems and would swap them out on a regular basis. R-Type, Strider, and SF2 lasted a good amount of time at the store. I spent every quarter I could there. Hehe - I even keep the dollar my father gave me to get the Sunday paper to spend on the arcades, then picking up a paper off somebodies lawn on the way home
(I eventually got caught when I couldn't find a paper to snag...
).
I
loved Strider in the arcades, but for some reason I wasn't
as excited when my friend got the game. I borrowed it, played it, beat it - multiple times, but never bought the game. R-Type was a different story.
