Have you played the new Strider from Double Helix?

The game is kind of amazing. We've been playing it on the Xbox One and the game has done the legacy of Capcom's platformer justice. The game is visually compelling and managed that rare task to make us actually feel like a somersaulting ninja badass. Should you be playing Strider?
