    0:49 to 1:10 That boss intro always impressed me, even today. There's a sense of danger and dread like I couldn't express back then when I first saw that. The boss is visibly far away, but the scaling is tough to gauge (even though it's clear he's very tall and large). Then he beams the streets (or the buildings, or the whole of downtown, you just have to imagine it; and the fact you don't see it all makes it scarier); then looks in your direction (that's the part where you go * gulp * and start to panic), and he jumps, only to then reveal his real size upon 'landing' at your spot. What made it even more imposing was the added detail the devs were brilliant to think about (just for the effect of it) in making the pieces of debris and concrete lift off the ground as the massive boss approaches. Then if it wasn't enough, he lands in such a way as to re-reveal his actual size twice since he has to 'climb' to your level, making it even more scarier.
    I was I think 8 or 9 years-old at the time when I first played that game, and that moment stuck to my mind to this day. It blew my mind but it was also sort of scary. Superbly presented and executed game.

      The voices aren't exactly clean though, I guess a sacrifice to make for the rest of the game to be as intense as it is. There are a couple dull bosses in this game though, mainly that one boss you must follow along as it trudges along a corridor as it drags itself forward. That boss at 15:18 pretty much, it's a long drag till you finally get to fight him. The boss at 13:38 isn't exactly entertaining either, especially compared to some of the other bosses in this game, guess all can't be winners.

      In Japan & Europe but not in US which is a shame since it's the region where the Mega Drive sold the most! The Sega Channel was cool and ahead of its time but games should have also been release on cartridges.
      Anyway Alien Soldier is a fantastic game, nice move for its acquisition on Steam.

And the best part is it's 2 player, so you can play with your friend or partner. And in my experience, the ladies enjoy playing this game too. It's challenging but not impossible. Classic 90s "remember the boss pattern" type play. I mean when you die, it's not one of those cheap shot type deals that piss you off. You know it was your own fault.
      Seriously, watching is not enough. This game is a must play for every. I guarantee you'll be hooked and will be asking Konami when are they gonna start making Contra games like this again.

    Easily one of my favorite games of all time. I think the slide mechanic is what makes this game so spectacular to me, as it allowed the devs to create encounters at a whole new level of difficulty. Initially being able to move through enemies and hazards unharmed seems imbalanced, and then the game starts forcing you mercilessly to master the move.

      I wonder what drugs was the dev team of Neo Contra ten years later. A mutated baby-worm-kinda thing, plant-mutant-cyborg hybrid that transforms into a giant carnivorous plant, and last but not least - a talking bullterrier dog piloting a mecha. The set-pieces are also ludicrous - riding velociraptors in stage 2, surfing on torpedoes while engaging aformentioned dog's mecha or running on helicopter blades as if these were a treadmill. It's all so borderline dumb even for Contra standards, yet awesome and badass at the same time.

      Mech walker was what scared me most. You're trapped in this astronomically large elevator with a maniac in a super deadly mech. As always, everything is a one hit kill. There's barely any space, and the sky's blazing by in the background. Then, there's the part where the mech gets taller. I thought that eventually, it would keep getting taller until it was impossible to dodge him. Really stressful, in my opinion.

    One of the best Megadrive/Genesis games, IMO better than the SNES Contra, although very different in terms of direction and atmosphere, while Contra 3 had a dark and foreboding atmosphere, even in the music, this is quite over-the-top. Could have used different levels of difficulty though, and also the choice of taking three hits like in the Japanese version or only one, which would have resulted in interesting combinations of challenge.

    here's the reason we got this game. In late 93 early 94 Konomi made the comment that "the megadrive cant do the complex graphics along with scaling and rotation." Not log after they said this a group of dev's that left Konomi in late 92 called Treasure released Gunstar Hero's showing that not only could it do scaling and rotation of the background (mode 7) but it could scale and rotate its sprites something the snes could not do without an addon chip. So because of that we got this game.
