Short, Challenging, and Classic Contra
This game is classic contra. It is filled with arcade style shoot ‘em up action. Fans of the classic contra will not be disappointed with this one. Although the music is somewhat forgettable, the side scrolling style ... Read Full Review

It's because of all that flash that makes the game SO entertaining.
Sometimes, gameplay isn't necessary to make a good game. I know plenty of them that sport excellent gameplay which is the highlight, with some scripted sequences that end up being memorable moments. Contra: Shattered Sol... Read Full Review
