I've only bothered with Hard Corps, so it gets my vote.

the only contra game on the list that ive ever played is the original arcade version, so I voted for that. I do want to try hard corps for genesis eventually though.

(Speaking in a cheesy super-hero voice, accompanied by cheesy super-hero fanfare) I did.

Has anybody else played Shattered Soldier?

I'm almost ashamed to admit it, but I think it's better than the 8/16 bit Contras. It's just friggin awesome. Definitely worth the $15 they charge at Gamestop.

Hard Corps. is easily my second fave, though. Contra III's top down "mode 7" levels were aweful IMO.

I have played Shattered Soldier. I didn't care for the weird way that the graphics looked. If I recall, it looked like Donkey Kong Country with digitized computer renders or something. Yuck. The gameplay was OK, but the music got on my nerves. There were a few tunes that were great, but the same electric guitar chord again and again at 600mph gets just a little tiring.

I dont know about being better than the originals. It rips off levels from all of the games. I dont think it can stand up to the older games though, but its not bad. They should have ended it there with the ps2 contras, its definetely the best of the ps2 ones.

I didn't notice levels being any more "ripped off" than in any other Contra game. Also, I thought the "600mph guitar" was funny. Oh well, it's hard to beat nostalgia.

Contra whatever it is called for SNES. I have only tried that one and the NES one. Not my type of game, but it was pretty entertaining I guess.

cant go wrong with the original, thats my favorite for nostalgic reasons but hard corps runs a close second, followed closely by super c(one of the most underrated games ever)
