GOTY?
Answer: Yes.
bad ass cover.
Who's that at the back? Is it...oh yes it is!
I WANT THIS GAME
(they changed the boxart?)

Need money.

Oh shits, must have.
Sweet box art.
Sweet box art.
wasn't this supposed to be 4-player co-op? they even had 4 dudes on the old poster.. now it's down to two.
Congrats to Konami and WayForward for keeping their fucking heads screwed on and making the box art just as much of an early-Contra homage as the game as demoed thusfar has been.
GameCrazy is giving a free 20th Anniversary Pack with pre-orders in the USA. Might be similar to that awesome Castlevania one?
is the co op wifi?
how can anyone's wallet survive this hoilday season?
it's too much, there are like 12 games I'd consider "must-have" in Q4 alone.
I hate having to be selective but I have no choice, I guess 'll get this sometime in early 2008.

I have pooped.
That's a wonderfully over the top cover.
Wow, just wow!
Finally a true sequel.
In all the screenshots and movies and artwork, they have totally nailed the OG Contra style. Good job. Can't wait for this game. I hope it's uh, kind of longer than the old games, or at least offers compelling reasons to replay it repeatably.
So one of the "unique selling points" implies that it's better than Contra 3.

I truly hope the Contra 4 version of Mad Dog and Scorpion are still hidden somewhere in the game.
Don't they do that with like every sequel ever? 'Tis to be expected.Originally Posted by brandonh83

NP said 4 player co-op and we saw screens with 4 players but I guess it didn't work out.
2 player is still awesome though.

They have absolutely nailed the old school, artistic look that I fancy so very, very much. November 13th cannot come soon enough. :)

Contra: Return of the King.
It's look good!
This is fantastic. First day for me for sure.
By the way, I beat the first Contra without dying a single time. Took me a really damn long time to do it, many weeks of practice. Totally worth it.

love the new art, but i also love the previous one:
Wow. Truly amazing cover art. This is a must-buy despite the fact that it's bookended by Galaxy and Smash.
Holy shit that cover art is godly.
I heard Floyd Landis looked at this boxart right before the Tour de France, and that's why he tested positive for high levels of testosterone.
sheer awesomeness!
no wonder it takes only one bullet to kill these guys, look how they're dressed!

Looks awesome. Hoping the preorder bonus is akin to the Castlevania 20th anniversary one.

LET'S ATTACK AGGRESSIVELY.
Did you expect the marketing one-sheet to tell retailers, "Almost as good as Contra III!" Of course not. It's just like how every Sonic is "the fastest one yet!"Originally Posted by brandonh83

I hope it works good on the FS
