Kenji Yamamoto, the producer, has said that the intention is to make the Hard Corps series into a new franchise. Contents.Gameplay Hard Corps: Uprising features two main game modes, Rising and Arcade. In Rising Mode, players can collect points throughout levels which are then used to purchase various upgrades and customization for weapons, armor and character abilities. Rising Mode also features a health bar, similar to the Japanese version of Contra: Hard Corps, allowing the player to take more than one hit before losing a life. Arcade Mode is a more difficult game mode in which the power-up shops are removed.Many new moves have been added.

The character can dash, dash in mid-air, double-jump and deflect enemy projectiles by bouncing them back. Additional moves can also be purchased in Rising Mode.Weapons include the standard rifle, the machine gun, the spread shot, the crash gun (shoots arcing grenades), the ripple gun (acts like a force field when sprinting), the heat gun (shoots large blasts of fire), the chain laser (homes in on enemy targets) and the Katana (unleashes a wide arc of energy onto the targets). As in, the player can carry two weapons and switch between them at any time.

By collecting the same weapon several times the player will improve its firing rate and power. Other weapon upgrades are available in Rising Mode as well.Plot In 2613, twenty years before the events of, the world is ruled by an empire known as the Commonwealth, under the reign of Tiberius. Neighboring nations have suffered under the Commonwealth's oppression and resistance forces rise across the land. However, so many resistance fighters have fallen to the overwhelming might of the empire, that their strength is now severely diminished. A group of elite soldiers rise through the ranks of the resistance and band together to execute a desperate plan.

This section needs expansion. You can help. ( July 2014)Audio The game's soundtrack is composed by.Reception ReceptionAggregate scoreAggregatorScore(X360) 75/100(PS3) 76/100Review scorePublicationScore8.5/10Hard Corps: Uprising was generally well received. Daemon Hatfield of gave the game an 8.5/10 saying 'If you've ever been into Contra or Metal Slug or action movies, Hard Corps: Uprising is for you'. He criticized Arcade Mode for being too punishing but praised Rising Mode for its upgrade system which decreased difficulty for players. He also praised the detail and art direction of the game, enjoying the anime feel of the game and the many things happening in the background (like the giant snake boss moving in the background in Level 1). Nathan Meunier of gave the game a 7/10 saying 'If the unmistakable opening prog-metal guitar riff and the frenzy of bullets that erupt from the get-go aren't a dead giveaway, the game's sadistic difficulty should be enough to jog your memory'.

His main issue was the brutal gameplay and multiple cheap shots encountered during the game. He advises players that they should not go solo unless they are hard core players. He too praised the art style, saying 'The beautiful hand-drawn art style has a pleasant anime vibe that updates the otherwise classic run-and-gun gameplay. Not only does each stage offer a stark visual contrast from the previous one, but they also throw in new and unexpected twists that break up the flow.' Contra Central said it's highly creative game that changes constantly and keeps you wake. They also pointed that hand-drawn art style, which has a pleasant anime vibe, gives new life to classic run-and-gun gameplay.

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. Partner with a friend to lay down some serious carnage.Features:. Exciting run-and-gun gameplay with beautifully rendered 2.5D graphics from Arc System Works.

Co-operate with gamers all over the world in Online Co-Op mode and compete via online leaderboards. GameplayThe 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.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.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. Game ModesThe run and gun is a genre that has had its moments of nobility in the 80 and 90 but unfortunately today tends to be more discreet. There are now almost more than the Metal Slug and Contra to continue this tradition.

But beware, this respect for tradition is not synonymous with immobility and Konami teams have even gone to look for next to Arc System Works to develop this new Contra. We recall in passing that the studio was mainly distinguished by giving birth to two sets of 2D fighting games own hallucinations: Guilty Gear and BlazBlue. It was this time charged to concoct a prequel to Contra: Hard Corps, the episode released on our Genesis under the name Probotector. The main character in Hard Corps: Uprising is indeed Colonel Bahamut, the great villain of the album released in 1994. This prequel allows us to understand better what is its relationship with Dr. Geo Mandrake and especially how he tried to overthrow the government.The lads of Arc System Works have not been content to lay us a stupid copy and paste the old Contra adapting it to the sauce HD, they really added to their graphic paw Hard Corps: Uprising.

Specifically we find the characters so beautifully animated 2D in settings that combine 3D and 2D. We must admit that the inlay of 3D elements is sometimes a strange effect at first glance, but the richness and diversity of environments are sufficient to make the medicine go down smoothly. The second level in the jungle for example simply bluffing and vegetation that you will find not only there to please the eye: some plants will not hesitate to spew clouds of poisonous spores or unfriendly. We note in passing that a large enough variety of enemies you seek to pierce the skin. This famous jungle so you can get to know you snipers who will try to knock out anywhere on the screen.

Some will always complain that the level design of lacking courage, just a fairly straight up but it is ultimately the codes of the genre who want it. We can also meet these gossips that the adventure is no shortage of passages in many and varied vehicles that come to break the monotony of the progress.Game CharactersTrue, the argument has no relevance in a title of its kind, but the truth is that the ARC System Works guys have done a fantastic effort at the time of submission of the most spectacular way possible. A formidable cinematic begins to reel quickly and very brief narrative will henceforth practically presence testimonial. The game will tell us the story of two characters in his epic against the Commonwealth Army in this year 2613, a battle that will take the Colonel and his partner Krystal Bahamut to fight in different scenarios against hundreds of enemy troops.From that moment before us opens the possibility to enjoy the game's campaign from the Arcade mode and Rising, both with the character of Bahamut (male) and with the Krystal (female).

What is the difference between these two forms? The campaign is the same in both, but the distinction between the two is that one of them the character evolves as we move forward in the adventure-Rising-mode and the other skills we have the default 'Arcade Mode. 2D-style gameplay, hundreds of deaths and the need not to die to maintain our bonus. Such were the shooters in the 90's.In both modes are talking about an extremely difficult game, much in line with the high levels of difficulty for the fans enjoyed the 90's and have gradually lost the actualization of different genders. In the progression so that has a number of routines that we can keep improving our character and work to unlock mode helping make the experience more accessible, especially considering that even though we die again and again -something that usually happens, 'do not lose our progress in the field of improvements.Otherwise the title offers a very reasonable number of hours in the single player campaign, with the usual structure of the genre. Horizontal mixing action with small elements of vertical platforms, all in a cocktail in the comfortable to be working with controls and have good reflexes to dodge enemy fire are the main keys to emerge victorious.

MultiplayerThe title suggests a cooperative effect in both online and in local. Your friend is a real race? It is time to focus on the big news of this episode: Rising mode.

This effect allows you to accumulate points in each character and then use them in a shop to unlock special skills. So you can make to boost its number of lives, to offer upgraded weapons directly, or even assign unique abilities such as a triple jump or the ability to repel bullets. Once you've done your market you can return the user directly rising and even choose the last level you have unlocked.Do not believe the game becomes easy by the mere presence of this mode because you have to earn the points that you then use to simplify your task, but nevertheless it offers an alternative more gradual and less frustrating to the user Arcade. Ultimately, this Hard Corps: Uprising is therefore a very good pick for fans of challenge and it is a must for fans of the Contra series. It is still a small downside: if the game is no problem with 1200 Microsoft Points, it is regretted that only offers two playable characters and need to then pay 200 or even 400 points to unlock additional Harley and Sayuri.

We can certainly do without this little addition but the player who has more and more the impression of being taken for a cow to milk may rightly have a hard time swallowing this pill.Online GameplayXLA requires, Hard Body: Uprising is playable online course, whatever the mode. A real success, as the game much easier with two passages - especially enjoying boosted character and skills well felt like this reflector projectiles. Which foot to replay the passage infiltration of Chapter 5 with his buddy, or the escort reached the level playing bodyguards. Full of such passages, known as the situations vary from one stage to another. The two shares will undoubtedly great moments for all fans of the genre. As for those who live only for the solo, the system of combos particularly well kit (without falling into the requirement Shattered Soldier ) should reserve a few sleepless nights, at least for those who want to storm the charts online. MarketplaceSome problems remain, however: besides the normal shot too decidedly lame (and thus disabling the face of most bosses ), one must admit that some checkpoints have been placed a little strangely.

It is still reeling from the QTE failure who forced us to replay an entire boss, all for a leap into the void! Certainly, the addition of lives Rising mode makes this kind of failure a little less frustrating. One could even say that the checkpoints have been designed precisely to take into account all these bonuses. Another complaint: load times, particularly long one chapter to another, also tend to break up the pace a bit, especially when online. We would have liked to follow up the drums beating levels. Shame finally daring to sell 200 points bonus characters on the marketplace.ConclusionArc System Works is a true goldsmith's 2D so it's no surprise that the lifting of the graphic series they have operated with Contra Hard Corps: Uprising is a real achievement.

One can always quibble by pointing out that the integration of certain elements in 3D sometimes swears a little but we find ourselves still in the end with a result quite convincing. The gameplay is simply the hair but may perhaps seem a little stiff for those who do not yet know the kind of run and gun. The regulars will find the contrary this episode particularly nervous. The difficulty is in any case indeed present and you should take the time to learn about the levels before you get out decently. Hard Corps: Uprising will keep you relatively long: each of the eight levels is quite long, but it is mostly having to tame the difficulty of the title that you may take some time. Rising mode and market expertise provides a steady and less frustrating than the Arcade mode.

It can also play two locally or online. Finally, note that the two characters available in DLC may be gnashing their teeth for many players. The music is like rock and roll quite in the spirit of Contra, but are also furiously thinking style pieces of Guilty Gear or BalzBlue. Cons by some noises and voices of the characters are a little disappointing.Fans of the Contra series might have some reluctance to discover that the studio Arc System Works has taken a lot of freedom in the graphic style of this episode, but ultimately Hard Corps: Uprising proves to be a great surprise. Not only the title offers a big challenge, but it is ultimately even more nervous than his elders. Finally, we appreciate the way Rising, which makes progress in the game less frustrating in a stupid arcade mode.

If the shooters still fare relatively well, we cannot say the same for all sub-genres of this great family. Therefore the challenging fans can truly regret that run and gun will do rarer. But everything is not over; Konami has decided to offer us a second youth of the series with Contra Hard Corps: Uprising on Xbox Live Arcade. However, it is not worth remembering that saga, as Uprising wants to be a full stop of it and generate its own franchise. The run and gun is a genre that has its nobility moments in the 80s and 90s but unluckily today it tends to be more careful. There are now almost more than the Metal Slug and Contra to continue this tradition.

But beware, this respect for tradition is not synonymous with immobility and Konami teams have even gone to look for next.We recall in passing that the studio was mainly distinguished by giving birth to two sets of 2D fighting games of its own vision: Guilty Gear and BlazBlue. Now as per Hard Corps: Uprising, the main character is indeed Colonel Bahamut, the great villain of the 1994 episode. This prequel let us to know better what is its relationship with Dr. Geo Mandrake and especially how he tried to overthrow the government. About The Game:The game takes us in the year 2613. The armies of the Empire under the command of Tiberius aimlessly destroy countries while no one answers them.

The few attempts to create a resistance force have failed, but this time will be different. Bahamut, a former soldier of the empire rebelled against fellow sick of seeing how we fight against innocent and unarmed people.

His group is attached with Krystal, a seemingly frail woman who was saved by a miracle after the attack on his people, along with Harley Daniels (a hairy biker) and Sayuri who is a samurai. These are the 4 lonely human to fight a huge army. The adventure consists of 8 levels varied and that take us from the inside of a spaceship, desert or jungle, and a very high difficulty level, which on the other hand, is one of the main features of the saga. We can say that there are quantity and above all quality opponents apart from the ordinary soldiers and flying machines.We will carry two weapons that we can share at any time, with the possibility even of taking two of a kind to make it even more powerful. We collect weapons from the scene if you shoot at flying green buildings, plus there is always the option of the run button to leave any trouble. The lads of Arc System Works have not been content to lay us a stupid copy and paste the old Contra adapting it to the sauce HD, they really added graphic paw to their Hard Corps: Uprising.

To further increase the difficulty of the checkpoint are not common, so often we have to repeat long stretches of phase. The story has to be played sequentially and will always have to start the first mission. Additionally, Rising is a small update to the current times.
