There is also museum which lists down all the Contra games with a small description and a few screenshots, it also mentions the difference between titles in other countries. You can also unlock a comic book and the original Contra and Super C. There are reasons to go back playing, some unlockable characters that shows some of the characters from previous games. But it can be too hard for more traditional players, especially since we are spoiled with the option to save. This is even harder than playing Ninja Gaiden (Xbox or PS3), but for players who love the series can really appreciate the difficulty. It can take you so many hours just trying to work on finishing one level. Once all of those have been depleted, you have to go back to stage one. There is also a way to stop your game and continue on later, but remember your lives and continues because that is it. You do have several lives and a few continues. In other words, no way to save the game… the traditional matter that is. The game feels fresh but stays true to old school gameplay.Īs I said before, this is like playing the classic games. You can also climb up walls and you now have a grappling hook that you can use on certain locations, like hanging on a helicopter while trying to defeat a boss. If you die using a particular weapon, you’ll lose that buy you’ll still be able to use the one that you didn’t die with. You can now have 2 weapon upgrades that you can switch.
They did add some elements to make it interesting. The gameplay hasn’t really changed, the 2D side scrolling action is still the same as before. Or you’re riding a jet ski on the top screen, while you try to attack aliens underwater from the bottom screen. What’s fun with the graphics? You play it using 2 screens, which makes the gaming environment wider, a gunfire from the top screen that you will eventually dodge while you’re at the bottom screen. If you have played any of the previous games, you will notice the levels look the same too, even the bosses are too. Visually, it looks almost like an upgrade of the first game, but it expands more on it. I mean, the graphics also looks like a throw back to the original side scrolling action. This game continues on with how we remember playing the classic game.
What I remember about Contra? The insane difficulty. Contra was one of four of the first games I got on the NES and I couldn’t wait to play Contra 4.
