Personal review

All of the legendary action and adrenaline of the famed Contra series comes to the PlayStation 2 with Contra: Shattered Soldier. Forget about the horrible original PlayStation version of Contra. Contra: Shattered Soldier is filled with massive, screen-filling boss characters, a Contra series staple, do everything they can to keep players from proceeding through the multiple action-packed missions. Don?t forget about the environmental threats such as swarms of bugs, aggressive enemies and alien encounters keep players on their toes. Grab a friend and play in the co-operative 2-player mode! Just when you think you have finished the game you are presented with multiple endings and hidden levels.

Classic run-and-gun Contra gameplay combines the best of 2-D and 3-D action gaming as the PS2 brings gruesome characters to life. Easy to pick up and play with simple, intuitive controls, the game invites you to play with a friend in the two-person simultaneous mode. Multiple endings and hidden levels can be uncovered depending on player performance.
