    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Игра плоха. А плоха тем что: одно оружие что делает её сложнее оригинала; уровни Contra Hard Corps на движке Contra 3 The Alien Wars это ужасно, так как без подкатов уровни становиться адски сложными.

    Deep it isn’t, but there’s no denying that this is one of the most action-packed titles you’ll play on the GBA for some time.
