In 1988, <\/figure>\n

The audio <\/strong>department has a few memorable tracks and the ones that are great have that genesis grit to them. Some of the others just felt a bit too generic for me. <\/p>\n

There are also secrets that can be found like in stage three just before breaking the first door, the player can actually climb up the wall and find a mysterious character. One of the bosses actually turns out the be one that resembles Simon Belmont from the Castlevania <\/strong>series. This is definitely a nice addition and a node to Konami\u2019s other classic franchise.<\/p>\n

I like that there are a good variety of stages that are unlocked based on the branch that you take.<\/p>\n

With 13 overall stages, compared to Contra 3 The Alien Wars on the Super Nintendo that has only six. Growing up as a Nintendo<\/a> kid, I wished I had Contra Hard Corps over Contra 3: The Alien Wars on my console of choice.<\/p>\n

Sega<\/a> Mega Drive owners definitely got a different experience. It uses the same gameplay experience but gave you all the extras. Contra Hard Corps delivers on a great run and gun<\/strong> shooter that has great graphics and a big difficulty curve. With many playable characters and branching storyline, Contra Hard Corps will keep you busy for quite some time.<\/p>\n
