onPause Review: Hard Corps: Uprising

onPause writes:

Oh, crap... what is that Konami code again? Up, Up, Down, Down... Up, Down, Up, Down... Down, Y, Down, Down, Y? Shoot! I just can't remember. Anywho, I'm sure it doesn't even work. With new games steering away from side scrolling platforms, it is nice to see Konami knows exactly the right remedy for the nostalgia blues. While Hard Corps: Uprising (HCU) is brandishing the Contra name, it is in fact a prequel to Contra: Hard Corps. So, Let's Rock!

In Case You Missed It: Contra

Contra has been missing in action for quite sometime now, and with the current trend of next gen reboots/remakes/re-imaginings, it would be a perfect series to revive. David

Ugh, we need another Contra and need one now. One of gaming's most important series right here.

porkChop4348d ago

They announced a new Contra a couple years back, but it was just a logo. Nothing ever came from it though.

Conversations this week revolve around Phil Fish leaving gaming and cancelling Fez 2, a Contra game you probably have never heard of and Zach Braff hate-speak. Despite our best efforts the show somehow spirals back into a discussion about GTA V.

Demon's Souls is the toughest I played on PS3. Awesome game btw.

JoGam4881d ago (Edited 4881d ago )

Wipeout is tough to Platinum. Socom Confrontation was another without grinding.

@Bordel, im still stuck on the first level of Demon Souls and I still love it.

StockpileTom4881d ago

I'm still working on my Confrontation Platinum. Just need a few more rounds won by extraction on Escort and hostage extracts. It's ridiculously hard do get this trophy without cheating (getting your clan on alts to help boost those stats).

I feel it is a worthy game though, I only plat games I love.

1. Demon's Souls
2. Dark Souls
3. Confrontation (TBA)

TopDudeMan4881d ago

I'd actually stick ninja gaiden sigma 1 ahead of demon's souls. I found that game much harder than DS. I never beat it. Well, I would have if my save hadn't bugged, but that's not the point.

Nevers4880d ago

Mine would actually be any of the GoWs. Button mashers are my downfall. There's not a snowball's chance in Hades I'll platinum a GoW. Getting a platinum on Demon's Souls was relatively easy, for me. I'm better at that type of gameplay.

Ezz20134880d ago (Edited 4880d ago )

demon souls.... i died aleast 10 times with the first monster
it took me while untill i knew how to play it

killzone 2/3 on Elite difficulty
uncharted 2/3 on Crashing difficulty

Cam9774881d ago (Edited 4881d ago )

Call of duty games? Haha! Absolutely not, WAW is the exception but the others (namely the latest ones) were easy on Vet. I should also add COD4 to the hard list, the last level has become fairly infamous to completionists and trophy hunters.

Demon's Souls was not too hard for me. Maybe because I chose magic, but for the majority of the game I was careful.

kneon4881d ago

I stopped buying COD after BLOPS but both BLOPS and MW2 were only slightly more difficult that regular difficulty. I think I finished each on veteran in under 6 hours. WaW is a different story, at times it was like I was being carpet bombed with grenades.

AznGaara4881d ago

Yeah a game can't be hard if, on default, it allows you to snap to an enemy's head via auto-aim.

StockpileTom4881d ago

I'm in trouble -- Please recommend this message!

sprinterboy4881d ago

wipeout, pain, demon souls and super stsrdust for plats imo.

BlackTar1874881d ago

which trophy on super stardust did you find overly hard?

TopDudeMan4881d ago

Demon's souls is an easy plat. You can do it in under 100 hours if you know what you're doing. Try platting SOCOM: confrontation. I didn't even get one of those.

Sizzon4881d ago (Edited 4881d ago )

Killzone 2 on Elite difficulty, oh boy the last level before you face Colonel Radec.

Edit - and ofc Demon's Souls, but at the same time so great and rewarding!
