Beating Contra with only Laser, Part 1 of 2, with commentary

Download the full quality video and/or commentary-free version at: http://classic.dryang.org/games/contra.shtml#ContraLaser

This is a video walkthrough of me, Peter Yang, beating Contra with only the laser weapon (with the exception of the basic gun and machine gun at the beginning). The total time needed to beat the game was 13 minutes. As always, no cheats/turbo buttons have been used. Hopefully this will further show that button mashing/turbo buttons are not needed to play this game well. This commentary isn't quite as polished as some of my others--time has been rather tight lately, but I hope it's still informative.

This part covers stage 1, Jungle, through the end of stage 4, Base2.

People always hate on the laser, but it's the best.

Like Matisaro, I saw this on Ars. Fun to watch, and the quality of your audio commentary is top-notch. Great work, Yaz! :)

Odd but detailed look at a single weapon.
