Hard Corp Uprising is a fantastic game that everyone who likes 2D Contra and Metal Slug should play.

Never understood why there kept the Contra name out of the title on this one.

Btw, do the classic code during the loading screen for the first level for a nice throwback.

I remember buying this game around launch on XBOX awhile back. Yes, it is an excellent game imo. Definitely recommended.

Good game. I'd also recommend people check out Blazing Chrome. Best Contra-like game since Contra 4.

Bought it years ago on the 360 and was super excited when it was made backwards compatible on the One/Series systems. It’s amazing!

Grab that game ASAP. Its great. I wish Contra Rebirth and the PS2 era games were re released as well. Konami should release a volume 2 of the Contra collection.

Amazing game, if interested buy it on PS3 as well.

This game need more attention.

Just downloaded it for free, thx mate. Will post my thoughts after playing a bit. Never played it but loved the OG Contra.

Great game! I played this a ton with a friend back in the PS3 days. I should buy this on Xbox since the fate of the PS3 doesn't look good.

I'm not a Contra super fan so maybe I'm just bad.... but this game is super hard. Hard but fun.

 

[Potato Chip PRO]

Ohh, almost forgot that I can download it! Thx for the reminder!

 

[Arcane0ne]

I have the game since Xbox 360 days.

It is hard! But the secret is to play the non-arcade mode (story mode?). In non-arcade mode you get to continuously upgrade your character (health, weapons etc) and those upgrades are carried over into new games. Athough you still have to die a lot, the game get progressively easier as your skills and stats increase.

Great game!
