What a great read. That explains so much. I had Strider II on the Atari ST and got nothing but rage and frustration out of it. I didn't even play the proper Strider 2 until it was in a capcom collection and I wanted to see if it was as bad as I remembered, only to find it was a completely different game I had missed out on for years lol.
Funny they talk about worn out controllers when I broke one of my PC joysticks playing it. Early on before I had memorized the tracks and was just going on reflexes and way too much sugar... That poor stick went one way then the opposite and then never registered going back again.
I would love a re-release of Super Cars 2, it was a fun racing game but the interview sections were absolute gold and still stick in my mind after all these years, long after I forgot about other racing games I played at the time.
