    Commando isn't for everyone. But fans of Metal Slug and other pound-you-into-the-ground, never-let-you-win shooters will appreciate what the developers have done with this game.

    When everything's tallied up, though, Commando is a decent game on its own merits and a strong first showing for newcomers Mana Computer Software.
