a) That's fine, but don't hate him for looking like John Cena. There are a lot of people that do, and honestly, that's a dumber reason for hating him than hating him because he's a cop.

b) The writers didn't even bother put in Stryker's reaction to Kabal out of laziness. Sonya didn't react to Jax's arms. Hell, Jax magically got his arms out of nothing, no explanation given. Scorpion and younger Sub-Zero's rivalry was handled with bullshit intent. Kabal joins the team without Sonya or Jax questioning the fact that a former Black Dragon member is joining. Not to mention, Stryker never gets a chance to react to Kabal being a former terrorist.

Don't blame the writers lack of effort in character development on Stryker. It could have been easily added, and they didn't do a god damn thing.

c) Stryker looks nothing like Chris Redfield. Dress like him? Somewhat. But the black hair, distorted face, steroid abused muscles, and larger array of bizarre weapons are no where to be found on Stryker.


A- Yeah few people owuld say he looks like JC, heck I do.
Also I was never implying I hated Stryker if that's what you thought of me saying. All I said was he lookedl ike said wrestler lol
B- Yeah you'd think if your friend is *TOASTY* you'd try to comfort them or grieve but it was just like *Stryker- Whoah you look *TOASTY!* anyways I'll be back and im sure you'll be fine LOLZ!"
C- Mmm....I suppose in clothing style they could look alike minus the Cap.
ps- I hate RE5's Chris Redfield. LOL he doesl ook like a Anabloc Steroid junkie haha XD. He looked better in REmake and GC RE2's alternate game mode...was it called "X Attack" or something like that?

Keep dunking your Kenshi breadsticks into your Skarlet sauce, people! The main course isn't coming for a while, and you never know when it's going to be disappointing.

Stryker didn't leave Kabal burning on the floor. He was calling a medic unit, until Ermac threw him into the subway station. After trying to beat Ermac, he gets interrupted by a man dressed like an Native American, which after the day Stryker has had so far....who knows what the freaks intentions are. Then when he finally gets back, Kano took him to save his life and give him pigtails.

Stryker cared about his friend, and vice versa. Just would have been nice if the writers gave them more screen time.


I DO like Resident Evil 5 and I do find his RE5 body attractive, but he was so much better as a CHARACTER before RE5. I don't care what you look like, when your entire existence and personality is "I must stop Wesker, and save my partners", you got little going for me. RE1, he actually had a sense of humor. His relationship with Rebecca was fun.

LMAO Now I got a mental image of Kano braiding Kabal's hair while he was unconscious.

I do think I should get some decent recognition for opening the eyes of some hateful fans who now visualize the character as I have for many years. Stryker is the greatest of MORTAL characters. He should never have been treated the way he was by the community's across the net.

I'm not cocky, nor am I trying to tick people off. But when It's comes to Stryker I've been the go to guy. And if you respect me as a MKO user on these boards then you Know I'm the one to rep Stryker to the fullest.

My heart has been in the right place for a long time for this character. And the treatment he got this game goes to show how Passionate people like me are to stick to a character that got his respect in full this game.

Thanks NRS.

I think he looks good, and has an excellent move set.. I also confess to enjoying his Dirty Harry Eastwood vibe. However I hate cops so I'm not exactly a fan sad

Okay. THIS opinion.

Look, getting in trouble with the law sucks. I'm not going to make some cock and bull excuse and say, "You shouldn't have been breaking the law in the first place!" Bullshit. We've all done something illegal once or twice in our lives. And if we were down on our luck, some of us would steal. Sometimes, life is just that way. And it sucks when we get caught, cause all we think is "FUCKING COPS", and I find that perfectly understandable and acceptable. I would say the same exact thing, even if Stryker caught me doing something.

But cops are doing their jobs. I hate watching a movie where the main character gets in trouble with the law, and then a cop starts chasing him down in his car. Then the main character does something that not only losses the cops, but kills the cop. Several people around would cheer on, but I never understand why. The cop was doing his fucking job. He is doing what is expected of him. Sure, we're cheering on the main character, but I'm not going to cheer on a dead cop. Granted, it doesn't bother me all that much, but it annoys me. I'm not going to wish death upon every cop in existence, and then expect them to save me when a lunatic is chasing me down the street. I'm not going to be a hypocrite like that.

Yes, I realize there are corrupt cops in this world. Yes, I know stories of cops who plant drugs in the vehicles they check and ruin the lives of people for shits and giggles. These are horrible cops. But you know what, the world is already filled with horrible people. Cops included. I don't see a difference between the scumbag cop who harassed an innocent black man and a KKK member. They both disgust me.

But there are good people in this world, and on that same note, there are good police officers in this world. The job sucks enough as it is having to work for as little pay as possible and take part in some of the most horrifying events imaginable sometimes. But there are people who take that realm, and still come out as decent people. I know those people exist, and that is why I can't HATE people for being cops. I don't want to throw a racist/generalization card, but I'm not going to hate the mass because of a collection of bad eggs.

And on that same note, I have a very hard time believing Stryker is a bad egg.

EDIT: Sorry about my long and excessive collection of posts. I've had this debate many times before.

Ahh, good ol' Stryker. No need for me to go into my reasons, or things I like about him. He's just BADASS and im glad most people like him now. NRS seemed to really care about his character and not just throw him in without improving him. I wish he could do his nightstick sweep (to the neck) like in MK3, but ah well. My favorite character in the series and this game is no different. And he is fn sexy too :)
