Quick overview
In this game you shot at the enemies until they’re all dead through varied levels. All of em, with the obligatory end-of-level boss at the end.
Graphics
Wonderfully detailed graphics with lush backgrounds, destructible buildings, varied enemies, and end-of-level bosses being gorgeous even after being crushed to the ground. 9/10
Music
The music suits it. It makes you feel alive and kick some naxi ass. Also the end level music is always good.9/10
Gameplay
On the surface Metal Slug may just seem like another run of the mill shooters but once you put in that coin you realize you where wrong. This really is one more go gameplay; you can’t not have a good time playing this game. There’s nothing like just barley missing a shot and coming back with a laser. And it’s end levels are always amazing, (MS3 every final level in every game should strive to be that good) .9/10
The Fun Factor
If you looked up fun in the dictionary you’d see Marco laughing like at the end of a level. The thing about this game is that it’s always surprises every time you play it (especially on MS3) with new weapons, items and jokes. There’s nothing like ducking and weaving through a hailstorm of weapon barrage and coming out unscathed. 10/10
Overall
Of course the original has been surpassed by its sequels (except MS4, guh, painful to play). But the original MS still has its charm. With lovely levels bosses and weapons. I can only hope the people are still converting this one to the gp32 but I fear the worse. This game is a necessity to play. It’s a game that’s a minute to learn a lifetime to master.9.5/10
