Well, the first of the pile has fallen! Contra Hard Corps is finally beaten.
CHC requires a bit of an explanation as to why it is so important. I've had this game as long as I've had my genesis (94-95ish). And as a five year old, it is tough to decide which game is harder: the lion king or Contra Hard Corps. Now that I'm much older, I have come to see the answer: lion king.
Contra Hard Corps was more of a memory game than i had thought. After not playing this gem for years, it all just fell into place...each bullet expertly dodged with precision and grace and extra lives....so many extra lives and continues.
i really wish i could find some sort of story on it though....not sure how a wolf with a robotic arm and a robot fit into contra storywise....then again, why am i asking about a story in contra???
I really enjoyed playing through it....and cant wait till i get the time to play through again to get a different ending..
so where does that leave me? oh wait 29 more >.>

Ok, so i lied about getting anything actually beaten from the actual list. Things have been a bit crazy preparing for + going to Otakon. (went as bob-omb + Engineer from TF2...pics coming eventually) Then convention ran fri-sun...so since we got there on thirs, it seemed only natural to play video games with my roommates. around midnight, long after everyone else was asleep, me and my friend frank beat Contra!
Contra really needs no introduction or review. It is good...go play it. I do have one real question...why is the final boss a nutsack?
