You know you've reached the pinnacle of badassery when your enemies see fit to send a squadron of fight jets to blitz you. I always loved the odds in games like this.
@Alianger Preach it brotha. And for me personally, it indeed my not have been the best contra style game, but it still was alot of fun thanks to that pumping soundtrack.
@ValisHD if it's any consolation, and if your fellows at Longplays haven't done it yet, you could request to do one of 1)Heavy Barrel (also made by Koji A.), 2) Thunder Zone, known in US as Desert Assault (the spiritual sequel of Bloody Wolf) or 3)one of my DataEast faves, Wolf Fang AKA Rohga Armor Force (the true sequel to Vapor Trail). I'll head to the website for the requests & see what goes.
I always hated emulators that treated the Megadrive's PSG as another FM synth channel.

I hate the control scheme they used in this longplay. It's great seeing a game I grew up playing again!

pleasant smooth video quality along with the game's graphics. The best version after coin-ops in my opinion. Lovely work!

The best version is actually the Amiga one :)

I actually like the Sega Genesis/Mega Drive version better than the arcade version. The Genesis version has better music and game play in my opinion.

Not the best Contra style game, but at least the soundtrack was excellent in this version.

I smell neoliberal profit experiment by this company. Some games looked and worked a lot better even earlier than 1990.

I still have this in my collection.
BTW, the fire gun is the most powerful weapon in this game, unlike contra in which the spread gun is the most powerful.
