''Story from the Contra III manual (US version):'' | |||
:February 14, 2636. You are about to learn what it takes to be a descendant of commando legends Scorpion and Mad Dog. That is, now that Red Falcon would like to use your family tree as a toothpick. You're Jimbo and Sully, special forces comrades just like your fearsome forefathers were. Nowadays, your weapons are far more advanced than they were when your ancestors saved the world from being skewered on Red Falcon's fangs. | |||
:That brutal beast is still in his prime and has had plenty of time to plot his revenge. He had swamped Neo City with six stages of the most cruel and unusual punishments ever. So run, climb, ride, soar and start blasting your way to the alien main base. Before your family name and your planet are just dirt under Red Falcon's claws. | |||
:An ominous looking red cloud descends over Neo City, and fires a gigantic energy beam at it, completely leveling the city. The Red Falcon appears over the ruins... it's back! Understandably, the descendants of Scorpion and Maddog, the protagonists of this game, are pissed off and decide to launch a counterattack against the Red Falcon and his invading minions. This is the third game in series and it’s considered by many people to be the best one. It takes what was started in Contra and Super C and does it better. Better graphics, better sound, and better game play. | |||
