R2 isn't all that great, I'd take Contra III or Hard Corps over it easily.
So, uhh, did you not make it to the second half of the first level of Contra III where there aren't any enemies at all and you have to leap over a pit of fire. There's also columns of fire and eruptions of flaming debris that you have to avoid.
Yeah, I can't agree with this at all. It plays almost exactly the same as the Contra games. You run, you shoot, and waves of enemies come at you.
By the way, level 2 of a Contra III is a top down shooter where you have to use the shoulder buttons to turn. It was pretty awesome, especially the boss fight at the end.
