Actually I find Hard Corps to be the easiest. It's the most predictable, as nothing changes on each playthrough. If you pick the robot and use the electromagnetic yoyo thing, you can destroy every boss in seconds, and you can tear through the regular levels with ease with his beam weapon.

I completely agree. The yo-yo is so over-powered and effective, many bosses don't even have enough time to change into their later forms.

Now Alien Wars, that game is dry anal rape without lube. I can't beat level one on hard. Or I can, but I'll have one life left. Also, forget about two player, especially on netplay.

I've never understood if the game was made with the intention of kids feasibly beating it; me and at least ten of my eight-year old friends would play it all the time, and the furthest anyone advanced was the beginning of Stage 4 on Normal difficulty. That was considered a huge accomplishment.

I just can't imagine anyone any little kid beating the swarm of Stage 6 bosses.

Incidentally, this is why my favorite speed run is the following;

A human player, without save states, beats the game on Hard mode without losing a single life. I had a siezure when I first saw this.
