Contra description

Before you is a game called Contra.

No, dear players, who started playing in the late 90-ies, is not what you're thinking: not contra' and Co NTRA. Commandos there are only two, the enemies are much smarter than "your" "Counter", and the graphics can be extremely daunting. Well, if so, go back to your mulitplier battles, and we are in the company of connoisseurs while going to the South Seas...

Yes, it is there, on the edge of the world, because it was there, in 2631 year from the Nativity of Christ, on the island called Galuga, near New Zealand, the terrorist organization "Red Falcon", bribed by aliens (!), decided to prepare mother Earth for the invasion thereof. And so, 2631 year, and no green and grey men and other similar creatures and not - boring... But it's a disorder, right? You and this here final to prevent just can't. Therefore, the abstract government, which thinks (always) exactly the same as you and I, sends in this superheated point sushi two best agents, with one of them you have to play. Remember their names – Bill Rizer and Lance Bean. The last great heroes of the games of the 80-ies...

What is the Foreword? Yes, the fact that Contra is clearly not the same game, which is to write a detailed essay on a given topic, to put words in inspirational momentum with mandatory lofty epithets. Is hit, released on all major platforms of its time, which played almost the entire playing planet needs some sort of description or praise?!

Well, okay, but only very briefly and for those who were discussed in the first paragraph: a side view, the graphics of the old, run forward to pass the level, because then it will be another level, shoot, kill enemies and do everything possible not to get us killed; you have the opportunity to improve weapons and the opportunity (if you like, you can even call it a law) meeting with the bosses (also to kill the latter).

That was it. Because it's Contra, don't know about that – ashamed, to describe which does not make sense. Just play and enjoy, very very strongly glad that now finally CAN play it on your ("this time it is yours" (C)) silicon ultra-modern form of life.
