A new title is in the oven of mother Konami. A shoot 'em up as it seems almost fashionable to go do. It's called Hard Corps: Uprising and the same manufacturer described it as a fictional sequel to the distributed back in 1994, Contra: Hard Corps. Like any good shoot 'em up that meets and as the name suggests, Hard Corps, you must shoot, shoot and shoot (and obviously dying several times to make it through the end of each level). If you are an "old gamers" and have already played at one of the titles of the Contra series, then it will certainly be a pleasure for you veterans know that the difficulty is one of the things that the developers have wanted to remain faithful to the previous chapters. The games, now a distant past, were characterized, rather than an outstanding graphics, high difficulty and the Hard Corps is no exception. Everything you need to play this title are really good reflexes, by which you can (still unlikely) to react to endless waves of enemies, traps, hazards and boss of course. There will, however, the rewards that will allow you to always be rewarded with interesting and useful bonus (extra slot of energy, improvements to your arsenal and the unfailing ability).
Basically, this new type of mechanism is designed to give greater thrust to the people who, once you are in front of a bosses and lost miserably, they may still be rewarded, and then buy more optimistic in launching a further challenge to "bad guy" above. This is of course included in a separate mode called "Rising Mode". However, if you are a veteran and want to experience a game really "tough", then you can simply start the adventure in Arcade mode. The gameplay will be identical, as are the enemies and bosses, but unlike the rules Rising, you will not have any of the upgrades, bonus or ability that we talked about earlier.
Thrilling retro run-and-gun action is back with a vengeance in Hard Corps: Uprising, a new 2D side scroller developed by ARC System Works that pays homage to classic Konami action series. Play as the soldier Bahamut as he begins to write his legend. Battle in the grueling trenches of Arcade mode or the all-new RISING mode, where a life bar and point system allow you to purchase items and upgrades to build your soldier up and achieve ultimate victory. Need help? Partner with a friend to lay down some serious carnage.

Gameplay
The gameplay should not be too disorient Contra fans but newcomers may be a bit surprised by the difficulty of the title. In fact you start your adventure with three or two fragments of life depending on whether you choose to play as Bahamut or her colleague Krystal, and you have you manage to find better weapons on the battlefield. Attention lose your equipment that you use the lesser damage received when you must face hordes of enemies real. In these circumstances you will understand without difficulty that the game over are quite numerous. History spices up the adventure, the developers have been pleased to cram the trap levels and integrate overpowered boss. In short, like his predecessors, Hard Body: Uprising is definitely a game to challenge and you need some time before knowing the fingertips of the eight levels and complete the Arcade mode. This difficulty seems excessive you and you're already on the verge of leaving your box of Valium before they start playing? Do not get so much bad blood, you'll have much more chance to advance in the game with a friend.

Another point which we must talk about is of course the graphics, which, as everyone can wait to the next level and is definitely a great visual impact. The game is in the hands of developers in the group Arc System Works (also known for titles such as Blaz Blue). This team of developers is particularly known for its style heavily "designed" that apply to their creations, and even in this case, Hard Corps is no exception. The style is very colorful and the effects of weapons designed to give a very good experience also play video players more fussy. In addition to graphical enhancements, what Hard Corps: Uprising wanted to draw from the latest games is the multiplayer. This allows you to complete the adventure in both single and co-op for up to two people. The fun is guaranteed. This title will be available for Xbox Live Arcade and Playstation Network, but does not have an official release date, pending further news, we refer to the next article.
