The Heist-5/10
Turf Wars-8/10
Silver Lining-7/10
Pretty good DLC, but nothing incredible about it. Had a fun time overall though

Improves upon the original game in most aspects, except the controls. Alex feels so slippery, its hard to finish a lot of the levels that I originally breezed through in the first game.

Even though it brought Astro mans' stage and Wily Stage 3 into existence, the game is still fantastic on most other factors, having banger's like Tengu man's stage and wily stage 2. The anime cut-scenes are iconic.

Fun game, but a bit too easy. Once you know to kill each of the enemies, its a walk in the park. Love the music.

Not as bad as people will have you think, but that doesn't mean its good. The 'ending' is way too short, and ends out of no where, and the combat usually leaves you so outnumbered that you forced to take a few lives.

So much damn fun.
I do prefer Smooth Moves a bit more, but this is definitely a close 2nd.

Way easier than i thought, even if you only get about 4 continues. Pretty sure contra 3 strengthened my senses.

Might seem weird, but I was honestly kind of disappointed by the amount of coins? I felt that apart from the gold themed power-ups, it was just like another new soup game

Honestly, i would've never beaten this if the contra anniversary collection didn't have the Japanese version, which not only gives you infinite continues, no matter the difficulty, but also has a 30 lives cheat. If you want an actually enjoyable experience, play the Japanese version, crank that shit up to hard mode, and use the 30 lives code.
Oh, and FUCK STAGE 5

A massive improvement from the first game, until world 8, when they finally remember this is suppose to be an AI game, and make the final world hard as SHIT. Good game overall tho

The 3.3 star rating on this game is criminal.

While the doc robot stages hold it back a bit, the wily castles stages are absolutely fantastic, definitely my favorites in the series.
