DESCRIPTION

Action gamers head back to the future — to save it from another alien invasion — in Neo Contra. The series' stalwart hero Bill Rizer returns to action, joined by new character Genbei Jaguer Yaguy, a mysterious samurai warrior with a distinctly different fighting style. The biggest change of all, however, may be the game's perspective; unlike its numerous side-scrolling shooter forebears, Neo Contra offers an angled, top-down perspective on its alien-ridden 3D environments. Neo Contra was developed by the same Konami Tokyo team that crafted the PS2's previous latter-day Contra game, Shattered Soldier. ~ All Game Guide
