Marco, Tarma, Eri, and Fio, the four veterans of the elite Sparrows Unit now come to Xbox Live in METAL SLUG 3! The popular action shooting series is in all of its original arcade glory, with gorgeous graphics and all the run-and-gun action you can handle. There is no time for indecision. General Morden is on the warpath and you must prevent him from creating the New World Order. Stop the Rebel Army! Multiple routes: Different routes through the stages allow for extended replayability. Different metal slugs: Various slugs are available for help in battle. Handle all the different slugs to learn their capabilities and complete the mission. Individual enemies: Different enemies appear depending on which route the player takes, and each enemy has its own unique characteristics. Classic arcade graphics: The classic graphics are faithfully reproduced for your gaming enjoyment. [SNK Playmore]
