I apologise if i'm more annoying than usual. :D
This video covers stage 4 and 5. Acts of stupidity are throughout.

Just a quick warm up playthrough before I take on (or rather, finish) some of the bigger ones... of a Contra game?
... who on earth Let's Plays Contra games on their highest difficulty?

I have one more "very quick" LP planned before moving back to Makimura and Megaman X3. This might be bumped up to two if I actually boot up another Contra game at some point. I seem to be replaying the series.

Notes about this difficulty level:
Maniac lives up to it's name, and strips you of all but two lives, all continues, and gives enemies higher hitpoints (this doesn't seem to apply to bosses) and tends to spawn more of them. It's no Contra 4 Hard Mode, but is still a decent challenge.
Did I meantion you get two lives for the entire game? Fun times!
