Game description: Neo Contra (ネオコントラ?) is the tenth video game in the Contra series by Konami. It was developed by Team Neo Kijirushi, a group of staff members within Konami Computer Entertainment Tokyo, and released for the PlayStation 2 in 2004. The game is a direct follow-up to Contra: Shattered Soldier and is another departure from the traditional scrolling shooter formula from previous games.

USA v02.20(10/02/2006), I checked both the PAL & NTSC versions and neither works. Both hang at start of Level 2 if game fixes are enabled. And both hang at start of level 1 if game fixes are disabled. So overall the game can not be played since there is no way to save the game midway and disable game fixes.
