Contra cassettes
Thursday, November 15, 2007
A pretty sophisticated game made in the late 1980s where you gotta tear a sinister enemy installation set up by an alien invader a new one. It was very influential for many side scrolling actioners, including some of Konami's own following productions. Most interesting is how the final boss here, if anything, vaguely reminds me of the end boss in Gradius.
Then, here's the sequel, where more alien conquestors turn up to cause more problems for all involved. The gameplay interface is different this time. Overall, pretty good!
