User Rating: 7 | Super Contra NES
By alpunk96 | Review Date:
Now first off dont get me wrong,I like Contra 1 and 3....but with this one....well this one just feels like a watered down version of the first Contra.I mean the graphics and music I like but the weapons all feel the same and the colors are all so...blah....and its quite easy compared to the first,not that its bad,but it should be noted.It just feels like a watered down version of the first.All I can say is at least the controls are still solid and the plot is good too.The plot is as follows:
The story takes place in December of 2634, a year after the events of the original Contra. A disturbing distress signal from General Hal is received, who was on his way to South America in preparation for the GX Army's 7th military maneuvers, reporting that the GX Army has suddenly revolted. The top branch of the federation forces calls forth Bill and Lance to investigate the situation. They arrive at the base ruins, only to be attacked by the GX Army's troops. Noticing that the troops' discolored blue skins and angry eyes, Bill and Lance return fire at their enemy and discover familiar-looking creatures inside their bodies. The alien creatures they fought at Galuga have somehow survived

The levels also just dont seem all that cool either,but the big question is:Is this worth your 500 points,aka $5...no.Go get Contra 1,3,and 4 instead.
