Original title: "Contra" 30 years of full series of orthodox works appreciation, no one dares to say that all of them have been played! "

How many movies are there in the Contra series? The editor roughly calculated that there are about twenty books. Of course, it does not include those knockoffs and alterations.

Contra series has a great influence on the field of shooting games and can be called the ancestor of similar games. Later similar works draw lessons from Contra, including the classic "Alloy warhead", "Magic Front", "Steel Gun Force 2", "Hell Hero Legend" and "Wolf of Battlefield II". Of course, there are also "sunset knights", "cowboys of Monmesa" and "angry ninjas".

"Contra" released "Contra 1" and "Contra 2" after the outbreak of the arcade era, but most domestic players come into contact with "Contra" on FC.

Although the popular time of FC and arcade in China coincides in the later stage, there is a certain gap in the early stage. Even many players are used to the FC version, and then look at the arcade version will feel that they can not appreciate it.

We have played many versions of Contra on the FC platform, but the only ones really released by Colome are "Contra 1", "Super Contra" and "Contra Power".

Contra 3 was released on the SFC platform in 1992 and later migrated to GBA and GB, which shrank maps and weapons to a certain extent.

Contra 3 began to become much more difficult, but this did not prevent him from becoming the shooting game champion of the year. Rely on this work can still dominate the shooting game.

In this version, the final BOSS of Contra finally appears, that is, the real body of the Heavenly King, annihilating its head, knocking off its heart, destroying its physical body, and then erasing its brain, can be regarded as the real elimination of this alien foreign body that invades the earth.

Contra 4, which was released on the NDS platform in 2007, adds a lot of new elements and re-highlights many of the previous BOSS. It did make the level that Contra should have.

Several characters have been added to the game, including even female characters, but except for the two protagonists, the other characters need to be unlocked. The difficulty of the game is different, and the shape of the bullet also changes after it is acquired.

In the game, the final BOSS "Black Snake" is a cell tissue of the king ghost killed by players in Contra 3, which is used by careerists to build biological and biological weapons. Although the lab was eventually destroyed by players, the cell did not die and eventually took shape and hatched successfully. It becomes the final BOSS black snake in Contra 4, the creature that looks like a mantis.

The plot of the American version is slightly different from that of the Japanese version. Black Snake is the sister of the King Ghost.

"Operation C" in 1991, this is a specially transplanted game on GB and GBC platforms. Although the picture quality is black and white, the plot of the game is closely linked to the orthodox sequel.

Because this game is the version of the Heavenly King ghost cell that was mentioned in Contra 4 and eventually evolved into a black snake.

See that cell tissue in the jar? That's the shapeless black snake.

At the same time, it is also the final BOSS, which will be finished as soon as it is finished. Black Snake waited until Contra 4 came out to make waves.

Contra: the Iron Blood Corps was a classic shooting game released on MD in 1994. At that time, many players thought it was Contra 4, and they were excited about it for a long time, because the game definitely lived up to the brand of Contra 4. But unfortunately, this game is only an external work of the "Contra" series, in which the mode of movement, weapons and attacks are different from those of the conventional Contra.

Because it is a rumor, so there is a certain conflict with the plot of the main line, at this time "Contra 4" has not yet been released.

The background of the story is that after the death of the King Ghost and the Black Snake, Major Bahamut and Dr. Geo Mandrake steal alien biological cells and conduct research to build their own bioweapons. The doctor with genius and wisdom finally succeeded in combining alien cells with human genes to create an unnatural monster. That is, the final BOSS

Contra: legacy of War 1996 this is a 3D game released on the PS platform.

In the mid-1990s, the battle between PS and SS was hot, and the PS platform joined the game Contra, which greatly increased the chances of winning. This game can be said to be the first 3D work in the "Contra" series, so it can be predicted that there are many immature places, but these provide a good experience for the future "Real Contra" and "New Contra".

The plot of this game and "Contra: iron Blood Corps" can be connected, so the protagonist of the game is the captain of the previous game. The plot is also a story in which human beings cooperate with aliens, play around the earth together, and finally be destroyed by the protagonists.

In the end, BOSS turned out to be a planet with life characteristics.

Contra: adventure 1998 is a 3D game released by Colome on the PS platform in 1998.

This game is perhaps the most common game in the Kelome series of word-of-mouth.

In the end, BOSS was the Fae Queen who appeared in the Iron Blood Regiment, where it was transformed into 3D.

The game Contra Advance-Alien Wars EX is the transplant version of Contra 3 in GBA.

"True Contra" in 2002, this game was a comeback for 3D Contra, and word-of-mouth ushered in the spring.

There is also a subversive reversal in the plot of the game. it turns out that the ultimate enemy of mankind is not aliens, but three ancient people who have lived on Earth for many years. To some extent, aliens are the real victims. Because humans stole their "Moilai relics", they had to fight for survival and take back the "Moilai relics".

"Moilai relics" has unparalleled energy, and was finally absorbed by the three ancients of the earth, that is, three old men, and became the final big BOSS of the game.

Moilai relics records the entire alien civilization.

Ancient people

New Contra was a 3D Contra with a very good reputation in 2004.

This is a game released at the end of PS2, so all aspects are relatively perfect, which can be regarded as the best performance of the PS2 host. The story line of the game has developed to 4444, that is, more than a thousand years since the last war, the protagonist is still Bill, but it is already a clone.

The attack mode of weapons has undergone some changes, players can combine weapons, there are a variety of combination effects.

The background story of this game has too much to do with the orthodoxy of Contra, or it has nothing to do with it.

The angle of view is different from that in the past, and the overlooking angle greatly reduces the possibility of players' vertigo.

Contra-Rebirth the HD Contra created by Kelome on the Wii platform in 2009.

The quality of the game is very good, with a GameRankings rating of 76.67%, while Metacritic rates the game as 76max 100. It was also named one of the most undervalued action games of the year and was nominated by Nintendo Power as Game of the year and Action Game of the year, and WiiWare Game of the year and Action Game of the year.

The influence of this game can be imagined.

Of course, there will also be familiar monsters and background-shaking BOSS in the game.

However, this game for players with "Contra" feelings are relatively early players, it is difficult to play further. And those who like Quadric may be more interested.

The super-burning music and hot battle scenes have raised the "Contra" series to another dimension.

The once familiar melodies in the game are created by heavy metal music style, which makes people excited in an instant.

The biggest villain in Contra: the Iron Blood Rebellion: Tiberius

And Tiberius's adopted daughter is an optional character in kimono in the game: Sayuri.

Many players are talking about why Contra has not been updated for so many years. In fact, the series of Contra has been published for many years and remains hot all the time. However, it is generally released on the mainframe platform, so we losers don't have a chance to get in touch with it. Nowadays, most of Contra can be simulated on computers, but we don't seem to have much motivation to try these legendary games.

In addition, Colome licensed mobile games developed by some Chinese game companies: Contra-Star Wars 2009, Contra-Evolutionary Revolution 2010, Contra-return 2017.
