Default Contra III Questions
1. How does the difficulty compare to that of gunstar heroes for the Sega Genesis?

2. Are there any save points?

3. Should I buy it? (I'm well aware that I have to prepare myself first)

You might wanna look at Alien Soldier(SUPER EASY MODE).
You get hp, unlimited continues and passwords.
And superb bossfights.

If you wanna travel to the world of Contra, Super C is a good suggestion.
Not as challanging but the same~ gameplay as CIII.

Dunno what Gunster Heros is like when compared to Contra III since i haven't downloaded it yet but having played Super Probotector
(which is contra 3 in europe) i can say its well worth a download but be warned though if you play on hard mode its very very hard. And its the only way to get to get the real ending if i am mistaken?

I love this game, and had it on SNES way back when, but I have unfortunately never beaten it. I have made it to the final boss on Hard numerous times, but it is indeed insanely difficult. I do recommend it though, Contra III is a lot of fun.

Its definatly worth downloading. I still have my copy on the SNES, this game is very good. I do agree, hard mode is insane.

Alien Soldier is hard on Super Easy too.

Contra 3 is really hard but it is still really well made and fun. It's something that you reliably get better at the more you play it. It's not hard because it is just poorly made.
