Contra III-The Alien Wars
Hello everyone and welcome to my first ever review, Today I'll be reviewing contra III-The alien wars, this berserkly hard 2-D
shooter is the 3rd installment in the contra series. Being larger and harder than ever before Contra III is my favorite installment
in the whole series, however if you get frustrated easily DO NOT PLAY!!! Your head will blow of for the below reasons.Now then:
On to the review!


Graphics-7
the graphics have dramatically improved since Contra 2, now with much more vibrant colours and shading the graphics are now
(in comparison) AMAZING, if you like Contra's insane difficulty but dislike the cruddy graphics boot up the plug in and get playing!


Sound-9
The sound's are as enjoyable as ever, from the explosion of missile's, to the firing of the crush gun, to the ever so enjoyable
ZEEermm of a laser, the sounds have improved more than the graphics have. Making Contra better than ever, and for the best part is the hilarious ARRGH of an alien being shot, making contra III much more enjoyable.


Addictiveness-8
Contra is as addicting as always, when you fail at something you know is possible you try again, and the cycle repeats itself.
The game is possible(I should know, I beat it) even if it's extremely hard you can beat it, so if you don't like replaying things go
and play a Kirby game, but if you're a hardcore gamer start it up, lose, and try and try again.


Story-7
there's not much to say here, the red falcon is back and bent on exterminating the human race and has fledged a full out war on the earth. It's up to you to defeat red falcon and save what's left of the planet. That's pretty much all there is to it, so once again
hardcore gamer=stop reading and start playing (but rate first!)


Depth-6
the game itself is pretty short but the reason I gave depth a six since it is extremely hard and therefore will take you forever
to win. Even with save states it took me a long time to beat it, But don't take my word for it, try yourself!


Difficulty-10(+)
Of course a hard game like Contra get's a 10, but Contra III takes it to a whole new level, even with save states I was tearing my hair out of my head in frustration, but yet, Contra's addicting game play kept me playing and I eventually beat it.(note:this was on NORMAL difficulty)

Wrap up
Ok guy's time to review or scores:
Graphics:7
Sound:9
Addictiveness:8
Story:7
Depth:6
Difficulty:10(Obviously)

and the total score is:9
Contra III is my favorite game on the SNES hands down, no matter how frustrated I got and no matter how close I was to winning
and died, Contra III is excellent and probably the hardest console game in existence. I'll see you guy's next time, please comment
and rate!

Ah, Contra III. I can never stay away from this game. I've only beaten the game once, and that was on the Normal difficulty with only one life left. This is hands down one of the best games on the SNES, without a doubt. It's one of the hardest games ever created (but then again, that's mostly what Contra is known for!) There are only 6 levels in the game, but all of them except the first one can offer a TON of challenge (Especially level 3 and 4). The graphics are good, but I do feel like they could've used a little more variety in colors. The story is your typical "you defeated a bad guy, he's back for revenge, beat him again" type of story. IT's a pretty short game, but you'll spend plenty of time frustrating over dying over and over and OVER again.
Trust me, I know. But then again, it's addicting as heck, with great action sequences and boss batttles.

Great review, and I would definitely recommend this to any 2D shooter fan, but be prepared to tear all of your hair out!

I've played Contra and Contra II before. So judging from those games, it's pretty obvious how hard Contra III would be. But I won't argue with how much fun and how good the graphics are for the console at the time.

I honestly don't see what all the hype is all about with the difficulty of this game is for. I had this game for the SNES since I had one. It was one of the first games I got for it. The only time I can't beat hard mode on it is when I'm playing with a partner because they are distracting or take what I need (of I try to save them too often). I thought this was only mediocre in difficulty, and super easy when you compare it to the first Contra game.

Well rcarter, if you think it's mediocre than there's a downloadable game for the computer called "I Wanna Be The Guy", Contra lll is EASY compared to it, it's not just hard, it's surprising and unfair, it would push a gaming master to his/her LIMIT. If you think this is mediocre than give it a shot.D:< = (me during the first boss)

Hahah. I like your evil boss face. I'm actually a fan of unfair games. I think I should clarify one thing about Contra III though. I think all the levels except the last one are pretty mediocre. The last level is a bit of a doozy . Just wondering, where do I find this "I wanna Be The Guy" game? Do I have to pay for it, and is there a way to play it without downloading? I prefer not to download things things online to my computer if I can help it. That is how my laptop is about 3 years old and runs like it did when I got it.

Reading this.. This is a REALLY GOOD FIRST REVIEW... Definitely your own style, unique... interesting. I usually don't play these games... But I might play this one, instead of Mario Kart 64 all the time. Thanks man.

... this a 3rd reply to a dead thread, but this was awesome back in the day...I spent a lot of hours on my super nintendo for this game - mind you this was way before I got into the computer and internet - so I had no idea about save states at that young age, so I never beat it, lol.

I've played the first Contra game and it was really hard. I didn't play the second one and I don't think I want to play the third one after the other two games being so hard.

starwars293 : Eh, don't use the first one as a reference to Contra III. It really is a complete cake walk compared to Contra I. Give it a try. You can also just play it on easy mode, which makes it a joke.
