That looked so rough. I hope this wasn't Konami's special announcement

Telling y'all right now I want to be the one making the hype thread for this game so I can make the options
"My corps ain't the only thing hard right now"
and
"Call me Oliver North because I want to forget the Contras ever existed now"

Every few generations they try another attempt at one of these top down focused contra games and they just never work.

It's stupid because Contra doesn't even need that much power to look amazing. It's all about the art direction and a few visual tricks for impact, as shown by Shattered Soldier.

Screw y'all, I love me some team-based top-down shooters, especially when they let me play as a giant fucking robot panda.

Game looks terrible...


...and I await all the weird ERA Konami stans to come in here to remind everyone that, yes, the company is still profitable. More than ever!

As someone who has no emotional attachment to the ip... it looks alright. Looks like something I would pick up on a deep sale.

It's like Konami's out of touch with what their fans wanted and the spirit of their franchises. Stay losing, Konami.... er, well, not on the pachislot side, I mean on the video game side!

I guess if this is what we should expect from Konami, they really shouldn't be trying to make games again...

Oh man, looks awful. I wish they'd just have ArcSys do a cell shaded sidescrolling UE4 Hard Corps 3.

This looked terrible..

I cringed at the visuals and cringed more at the narration.

Oh dear.

I would rather games be totally flat shaded with hand-painted textures than ever look like that. It seriously looks like garbage.

Don't ever use the words "Contra" and "Corps" in the same sentence, and not give us sequel to the best Contra out here.

This looks hideous.

I'll give it an opportunity. More Contra is always good (I guess)

Blazing Chrome can't come soon enough though

That's not how I remember Contra to be, looks kinda rough as well. But I'll give them the benefit of the doubt for now...

Yeah........that's not what I wanted.

Hopefully its fun, but to turn such a great 2d run and gun into a top down shoot em up. Why
