Contra: Shattered Soldier Description
Continuing the non-stop excitement of the original NES and Super NES games, Contra: Shattered Soldier offers a mix of 2D and 3D shoot 'em up action, as one or two players battle their way through a series of alien-filled stages. Armed with a succession of increasingly powerful weapons including multiple direction rifles and flame-throwers, with more to collect along the way, the player must run, jump and blast his way through wave after wave of aliens and counter huge end-of-level adversaries.
Befitting its instantly gratifying gameplay, Contra: Shattered Soldier also benefits from an intuitive control system that adapts to its 2D and 3D environments, with the heroes climbing, somersaulting and running with ease. The game also acts as a stunning showcase for the PlayStation 2 platform, with snowboarding and motorcycle-based stages, incredible pyrotechnics and unrelenting pace ushering the Contra series into a new era.
