The 'glitch' with the stones isn't really a glitch...it has more to do with how your hitbox changes as you're lying down. When the character is lying on the ground his hitbox shrinks and a much smaller part of the sprite the only part vulnerable to hostile collision detection. Just so happens that this smaller space fits perfectly between the brain boss and the starting point of the gray stones. Or rather, the stones don't become 'hostile' until they make their first rotation, so...yeah. :)
@dukepro95 It's a matter of timing your jumps over the "balls" or whatever they are. Some players will try to avoid getting that attack to begin with, but it is tricky to do so.
@WarHawk215 um... no one dick head, its called a glitch the rolling stones is the ONLY thing that he got hit from, but he was ducking down, making a glitch, now go read a dictionary, 3 year old....
Its not a glitvh!!! I have the game and if u lie in that position the balls will not hit u, maybe is a mistake of the game but he isnt using any cheat!!
Wow man, that's really impressive. I remember beating this game on Hard when I was a teen... then I tried the Virtual Console. Normal Mode was cake, but I struggled to beat the FIRST stage on hard.
@MrBlogDog123 : Nah, no cheating there. You perhaps haven't played many Contra games. You can call it a glitch, maybe, a sweet spot definitely, but it's a legit win, sir.
Besides the ball that would've been a snake that crawls back and forth (That's hard to avoid), what other spinning balls do you want to avoid getting?
btw the bosses are called Demon Emperor Gava (big head), Brain Organism Searle (self explanatory) and Firomedos Six-Man Group (the six faced armor thing). The Red Falcon is the alien syndicate's name (not a character like Konami's US division wants you to think)
He's not using a glitch. I didn't know about that position but you can tell it's no glitch.
I've only beaten the boss after one continue using the weapons I got on the way =) Heh, beating him with only the standard gun? Someone's already done it, most likely. Now I need to do it as well. Sigh... thought I was done with the game =P
What do you mean, not a glitch? Why else wouldn't it kill me?
As for the standard gun thing, I've not seen the entire fight done that way (though as you said it probably exists somewhere), but there's at least one fight I saw recently done mostly with that gun, but only because the player died and lost all the weapons.
It's likely not a glitch. The boulders may seem to be touching you, but the programmers likely made that spot as a haven against the boulders; the player would find the spot too easily if it was where boulders did not fall. It's a hidden spot, not a glitch.
I dont think it should count if you use a glitc in the game... seems too cheap.
Anyways, I've yet to see anyone beat him on hard, w/ not cheats/glitches, and only using the standard gun. That would be the hardest gaming challenge ever.
OOOOOOhhhhhhh, now i get it. i beet it on easy, and when the brain opened its eye there is nothing after that. i though it was a cliffhanger and would be continued in a sequal
Great ending music when on the chopper. A epic military styled fanfare, leadin in to a military styled drumming. Feels like you've saved the world. Much better than "hard corps" - wild rampant beat to the keyboardy screech noises going all over. Love the final boss music on this too.
Not at all. If you're referring to the part where those balls roll over me without killing me, that's just taking advantage of an in-game hit-detection failure (I observed it in one other Contra 3 video on youtube and wanted to try it myself).
I used to shoot the "eye" ball as it's pretty easy to combo most of the eyes with dual crush missles and score eleventy billion extra lives. xD
Never thought of exploiting the hit detection like you do, though. Awesome job, Comrade...now let's try that in two-player over a bottle of Russian Prince! xD

your lucky there is that glitch because that method of attack is impossible to dodge otherwise, and takes 2- 3 lives away every time you hit it
