And why the movie marathon Iggy?
In Paris, from Sunday the 27th at 13h to tuesday the 29th at midnight, you pay your first seat full price, then all the other movies are 1€50 each. It's the best deal of the year every year, it's called La Fête du Cinema, and as much as I can hate the fête de la musique, I just love the ambiance of this one.
In Strasbourg, from July 3rd to July 5th, there's La Fête de La Puta: you pay your first prostitute full price, but then you can shag for 1€50 any other puta. And just as much as I hate La Fête de la Musique and La Fête du Cinéma, I love the ambiance of La Fête de la Puta.

Drool, new Contra... I remember a little was posted about this a while back, but I thought it had been canned.
No, thank god. I'm currently playing through Shattered Soldier, and I'm actually able to get to the last (REALLY last) level due to my getting an A average. Though I haven't beaten it yet, I must say that this game is insanely satisfying. HUGE bosses, lots of noise and destruction...really, playing this game made me remember why I loved video games in the first place.
I know this rant comes out of nowhere, but I just gush about how much I asbolutlely love this game.
Hey, Rugalbernstein. Have you beaten the game with a S average?

I've been meaning to get Shattered Soldier for so long now. I didn't buy it at first because I heard that it was too short, so I've been waiting until I see it for a decent price. Unfortunately that hasn't happened yet. The same thing happened with Windwaker (only it wasn't because it was too short). I want to get both games, but I figure if I've waited this long, I shouldn't have to pay $40 for each of them.

hahaha, i don't think even RUGAL can pull that off. or maybe he can. the hell do i know. the last stage is crazy though. the patterns get erratic, although i do love that evolutionary barfing frog
Of the first five stages I've managed to get a S on stages 1, 3, and 5. The lasers that shoot down from the aircraft a little after the beginning of stage 2 and those freakin' guys on the rockets (the ones hangin from the missiles after the aircraft takes off)Quite a rush. Quite a rush, indeed.
Use the charged flame shot on the lasers to kill them really fast. It's tough to get all the missle guys, but I can generally pull it off.. can't really offer any advice on it, though. Surprised you don't generally get an S on stage 4, I think it's the second easiest of the initial four, actually. Glad people are at least taking interest in the game now.. X-D
I still wish it had more alien action near the end, always liked fighting them more than the brainslave humans (are they even slaves this time?) but hey, fighting Gyabba from the bottom = yet another cool way to fight him. As for it being short.. yeah, it's short, but Contra always is. Play the original Contra (Arcade version) or Super C.. awesome games, very intense (especially Super C) but I can beat them 5 minutes, probably.

Good, a Contra Shattered Soldier thread!
It's been a while since I played the game, I should play it again. Anyway, I can get an S on every stage, except the last one, the last boss (on his gelatine form) kills me several times, and unless I'm playing with my brother, that motherfucker kills me completely...
blobby has to be killed a certain way, and if you shoot him when he's near you, there's a big chance you'll get hit by some "splash damage". i forgot what gun you're supposed to use (the bombs or the regular machine gun?) but i do know that using the flame shot is like dropping a bowling ball in a toilet filled with diarrhea

I use the regular machine gun on that fight, I think any other weapon will make the blob cum at you with furious anger.
It's the damn thingies he drops the ones that give me most of the troubles, if I keep shooting at them, blobby will regenerate and/or corner me, which means instant death of yours truly.
There's a wonderful and sad trick to taking him down:
crouch in the left corner, aim up-right, and hold down the machine gun trigger. The blobbies will come REAL cloe, but they'll touch the point of machine gun fire emission and die. All you have to do is sit there and keep firing.

Man.. I still haven't unlocked stage 6, far less 7 in SS. Either various gamefaqs are wrong, ot Konami doesn't know how to average. It is said that to unlock stage 6, you need to beat stages 1-5 with an average score of A (and to unlock stage 7, you need to unlock stages 1-6 with an average score of A).
Well, the last time my friend and I played, we had a score of A,A,A,B,A for stages 1-5, only to end up with an average of B.
How the FUCK does four As and one B = an average of B?
So I need to know, are the requirements for unlocking stage 6 (and possibly 7) different than what has been reported, or is it simply that Konami can't average and I need to get A for every stage to unlock the rest? Thanks to anyone who responds.

hahahaha, that's a great quote. [edit] i think they might've misworded it. "average" should probably be replaced by "minimum". anyways, try to be a perfectionist and get some S's. even if you get a B or two, you might still be able to unlock the latter stages if the rest of your scores are really high
here's some little tidbits on how to get an S. just complete a stage and try to kill everything. then at the end, check out your percentage. an S equals 100%. i'll try to list the things i can to help you out. if i'm giving out bad info or if i'm missing something, someone correct me
- try not to die
obvious, i know. but i think dying takes off 5 points, or 3 points, or something like that. dying just twice can put a dent in your score
- kill everything piece by piece
if there's a boss that you can take a shortcut and kill directly, instead of blowing off an arm, then a leg, then a zit on his face, then a tumor that's been growing on his back, etc etc, just take your time and destroy all those little things first. i'll list some examples of this that are in the first stage
first, there's that mini-boss of those pair of guns that turns from a shooter thing, to a laser, to a flaming thing, to more lasers (i don't remember it exactly but it was something like that). ignore the crystal in the middle for now and shoot the guns on the sides first. completely destroy one side of guns, then start attacking the other. it'll take a bit to learn what to kill and when to dodge so you don't get overwhelmed, but it's well-worth it. finally, shoot the crystals in the center last. by the way, when the crystals in the center start zapping you, you can touch the laser it beams. just don't touch the ground. it took me forever to figure that out on my own >:o
another example in the first stage is that old school turtle with a face for an ass. blow off that crap on his back that shoots bees at you (or the dogs with bees in their mouths, and when they bark, they shoot bees at you). it can only be damaged with those grenades. then blow off that heart where the maggots spawn from. afterwards, just finish it off
- redo a stage and check out what's wrong
if you messed up a stage real bad, try to redeem yourself and just go back to it. or if you thought you finished a stage flawlessly but you still got 98% or 99%, go back again and look around for something you might've missed. sometimes, it's a stupid piece of machinery you didn't see or a barrel you forgot to blow up or something real small. you'll eventually catch it. or if you're really desperate, you can just travel throughout the whole stage with the "heat seeking missiles" and just fire every half second
i guess that's it. hmm, i seem to be laughing and talking and editing a lot. signs that i need sleep

Actually, a S ranking means that you killed everything in a level and didn't die even once. If you get killed even once, you can't rank higher than an A. It's weird because apparently 86% can be an A.

The order is first: missiles (the turrets will lock on to you but the missiles just shoot straight, easily dodged), then a turret that shoots a spread of three shots beneath it, then a turret that shoots a flame that will spread along the bottom of the screen once it hits the ground, and finally a continuous blast of fire that hits the area below whichever turret is using it.
But now I'm being too particular...
