Contra Shattered Soldier PlayStation 2 S-Rank 60fps 

Whoever has never played this game can think that it is easy, but only those who have played, understand the difficulty of this feat. Congratulations and thank you for showing me that it is possible.

Criminally underrated and under appreciated Contra

17 years older than Rogue Corps, and a million times more appealing and fun. Shame on you Konami.

I love it how, in the end of the game,, they just casually sit on an airplane. They're not blown away, they're not suffocating being above the clouds, nor are they going blind or frostbitten from ultraviolet rays and below, way below freezing temperatures that high in the atmosphere.

The guy who did the soundtrack in this absolute iconic beast of a game is none other than Akira Yamaoka , the composer of Silent Hill , Let that sink in for a minute folks . 🤯😳🎸

THEY dont get the love they deserve, but Contra Shattered Soldier and Contra Neo for PS2 were classics in the franchise IMO

I love how the rolling jumping animation is exactly the same as the classic contra. Spent countless hours playing the classic. Never knew any other Contra's games.

This is my first experience with PS2 games. I was blown away by the graphics at the time. N the vibrations on the ps2 controller. It was a luxury experience.

This is one of the hardest games I ever played! ☠️😱

6:47 this moment gave me nightmares as a kid ...

Man, reminding all the safe spots, weapons in certain situations and all the stuff, back in the day I never was able to do every single mission 100%, you are a true Contra Shattered Soldier Master!

23:25 one of my favorite levels of the game. Sky To The Ocean by Akira Yamaoka was my favorite from this soundtrack. Amazing track and such an underrated game.

Its 2024, the newest Contra still hasnt topped shattered soldier

For some reason, a lot of these bosses remind me of creatures that Cyriak would make in his weird videos

I still have fond memories of this game. As well as the NeoContra sequel lol

The best out of all contra games

The trance track that is played during the train level is absolutely epic as fuck. Always hyped me up as a kid, crazy to think it still does almost 2 decades later

This was a badass Contra game! Wish there were more cutscenes like the intro in the game.

This is one of the best contra games. And an all time classic 🐸🍺🔪🔥

49:20 best part!

This was one of my very first games for the PS2... ill always remember that damn mutant turtle lol

Turning Lance into a villain and forcing Bill to kill him would be like turning Robin into a villain and Batman being forced to put him down.

Contra Shattered Soldier is awesome i love this game the best Contra ever made

I'm still playing this on the original PS2 I bought at an antique place

this brought me nostalgia memories of gunstar heroes

They dont make them like this no more PERIOD!!

The music is amazingly badass and I wish I could play this again.

this takes me back to my childhood, I never played solo, always with a friend because its much more fun that way. Its savage how you didn't put in the code for 30 lives, we always did that. Nice upload, I feel like playing this again. The fire gun was always the strongest and I like how in this one they gave you all the guns to rotate as opposed to the other ones that had them fly in the little cloud things and sometimes you missed the gun you really needed for the stage or the boss fight.

Admit it, many didn't get the chance to finish this game. This is freaking hard when you don't know the patterns.

The best 3D Contra game, and one of the best games in the series period. Underrated hidden gem.

I remember my favorite game when I was a little kid a long time ago.good times.😊

Nice gameplay with perfect timing! Wow Good old CONTRA !

Music was insanely awesome...watching this year's and years later I remember how annoyed I was that the sound effects couldnt be turned down.

Played this with my brother alot bck then but man this game was tough amazing to see someone master this game contra hard corps was great and this game was amazing too your awesome congrats

Fantastic playthrough

thank you so much for posting this!

I played this with my roommate back in the day. It took us a long time to beat, it wasn’t easy. Oddly I don’t remember the cut scenes. We must have skipped them. But I remember every part of every level clearly, and I played it what 20 years ago. If you ever beat this game you understand. Best Contra game in my opinion but I also loved Contra 3 alien wars which this game draws from heavily

i played this game when i had like 7 or 6 years old, i don't remember, but now with 16 years old i finally could complete this game, that moment when you complete a game that you took so much time to pass, is very satisfying, i could feel when you're near to the final and you feel like if you're going to have a hearth attack like saying "i can't die now" lol and now, i just need pass R-Type Delta

When I was younger I played this game a lot and made it to 46:00 in this video. As RU-vid didn't exist, I had to find all the solutions myself. Also, even though I made it this far, I never knew how close I was to beating it. This makes me want to dust off my PS2.

I take Shattered Soldier over Rogue Corps any day (would have loved to see a remastered or remake of this and Neo Contra).

This game was the first time a thought "No way can a home console handle these graphics"

What an awesome game! I bought it when it came out. Never heard much about it, but when I saw it looked like classic contra, I had to buy it. Seemed like not too many people knew about it. I was able to beat it loosing very few lives, and once beat it only loosing one life. I could never beat it loosing no lives to get the secret ending. I guess I never really knew that you could get the secret ending if you restarted the level and beat it not loosing any lives. I always tried to one shot the game. Years later I let someone borrow it, and never got it back!! Dang it!! But I have emulated it since. I would often play it with my cousin, and we could beat it together. I feel like I got a little better at it, but he got pretty good at it too. Really difficult game, but totally beatable if you get good at it! Fun times!!

I can't believe I missed this one,a true contra game,that one level after he fights lance looks like he is riding the RV from spaceballs

This has to be remastered. It will sell like crazy

i quit after sooo many tries , Thank You for the play through, i've learned a lot i will return..!

Very good job. All 100% no deaths. Got to give it to you. The game play was very incredible

A real Contra game. The final boss was a bit weak and they did dirty my boy Lance, but otherwise, most of the boss monster designs were excellent. Didn't know the story actually progressed after Contra 3 LOL. Amazingly, a modern game like Contra Operation Galuga cannot reproduce these visual effects 24 years later!

30:00 gave me nightmares as a kid....

One of my favorites. ! Cant forget the game 'ONE' for the PS

so many memories of the level and enemy design from this game some of these monsters are seriously creepy lol theyve stuck in my brain for 20 years

The most legendary intro of all time, the smirk on my face 20 years ago

Multiple boss fights in each stage eh? I'm quite impressed

This game is hard.

Still holds up. Amazing game

I never skip this intro. It puts me into the zone...the DANGER ZONE.

Mannn this intro is so fuckinng awesome

Underrated game. So damn fun!

Completely gorgeous game hands down. Successor to Contra and Super Contra. The sound effects and music are top notch memorable. The aliens scream and I can remember them scream.

I still have this game. Too bad my PS2 doesn't work anymore. Played a lot!

Contra: Shattered Sound xD Good game good game.

still one of the best opening cinematic music there is in video game history played this until i got A rank for all stages

Now that I’m more grown, I just realized… contra is super weird lmao, still one of my favorite side scroller shooters of all time

29:14 scarred me as a kid

Man the soundtrack was fire at the time. Still is

i need to play this game again

Is nobody going to mention that this game killed off Lance Bean? The Luigi to Bill Raizer's Mario? This made me cry my eyes out as a kid...

I absolutely loved this game

Seems like this was the last good contra game. 20 years ago

6:48 I remember how I Afraid when I saw it😱

Man this just screams the 00's and I kinda love it. XD

That 6-in-1 man-portable combat weapon is awesome, although some of my friends disliked it (lack of choice, LOL). It reminds me a lot of the A-B-C-D weapon choices in Contra Hard Corps, where your character will naturally acquire all the weapons if you do not die (easier on the JPN version since you can take up to 2 hits without losing a life).

This game will always be epic

Visually stunning

Im still having nightmares with this game, and im still loving this game

This game was rough. After lots of practice I finally got S across the board for that stupid ending. Anyway, while I wasn't wild for the games overall presentation. It did maintain that Contra attitude. I didnt care for Neo either and contra went flat on its face, until 4. Still this Contra held some weight in its traditional design methods. The one gripe I had was that the alien blood was a silly green color. I say this because the actual artifact used human DNA to create itself. So the blood being green felt a bit off to me.

My childhood game

This game has one of the best soundtrack in the series

My friend was nasty like this at this game. Could believe some of the close calls he would pull off, all just by muscle memory nd memorization. Awesome to watch.

this game was so much fun, I enjoyed the co-op mode with my neighbor

wow, never saw this contra before, looks awesome. a lot of the same stuff from snes, but lots of new stuff too. its interesting how they have techy enemies and gory ones, but never a mix of the two

forget Dark Souls this was the real deal!

Still the best 3D Contra ever made. Better than Operation Galuga, by many miles.

One of my favorite contra 3 snes

The best contra ever

How many set pieces does your stage need!? Contra: ALL OF THEM.

Lucia in the first cutscene was like: "Hey, wake up - we've got some shit to deal with."

2023 and Contra Shatrered Soldier is still as hard as Contra III.

Don't watch the trailer for Contra Rogue Corps...you'll be in a mood the rest of the day. :-c

this is the hardest contra game of all but also one of the best, the japanese title of the game is Shin Kontora which means "True Contra" withouth a doubt the unrelentless action and difficulty honors the name

7:18 cute puppy.

Man I loved ps2 but never saw this title

I had absolutely no ideal this existed lmao

The coolest contra music ever made 11:50 14:38

The perfect play!

I wish they came out with another contra similar to this

もーすごいとしかいーよーがない… fantastic！

one day, someone will make a contra game that is nothing but end level bosses and wall shattering. No reused graphics.

It's hard af, but after some time it's like a dance. This is a hard game that I can say I got really gud at it. Super short and ultra sweet.

This game is THE SHIT!

Shattered Soldier and Neo Contra all the way.
