Contra: Shattered Soldier

So good, so fun, so hard! Awesome bosses though. I like the jet-skiing giant robot.

Bravery is better than a faint heart for a man seeking to put his nose out of doors. My fate and the number of my days has already been decided.

Oh yeah, it brings back wonderful memories of the old Contra Games. 2d, dark, a deep story... Plus some rockin' music, this game has it all! It makes up for the crappier sequels we got like Neo Contra.

We know how to get 100% hit rate in the Fortress, but we're having a hard time surviving it without using a continue, in order to make an A.

Well that level is pretty easy to get an S in with a lot of practice. I managed to do that. The later levels are a pain.

We're STILL not sure how to kill the lasers on the helicopter/submarine fast enough to get them all in the Train stage. We think we might have Seabed on lockdown, too.

I just played the first stage solo and got an S-rank. o.O That's not supposed to happen. I feel like I blasphemed god.
