    Metal Slug games tend to disappear fast and never return, so snag this one fast and don’t be sluggish. If you see a sale, bite and don’t hesitate.

    Metal Slug 7 is a godsend to hardcore gamers looking for a portable fix.

    Metal Slug 7 delivers what fans of the series expect, nothing more, nothing less. [Jan 2009]

    The shrink from arcade to DS screen in no way cramps the experience, offering the same amount of exacting control as it ever did.

    Metal Slug 7 provides great action, but unless you're a total completist, it's far too short an experience.

    While it may not have evolved a great deal Metal Slug 7 still carries on the classic gameplay that made the series popular.

    For all of my bitching, I don’t hate Metal Slug 7. It’s fun enough, functional, and perfect for short bus rides, but I enjoyed playing it more the last six times it was released. Metal Slug 7 proves that shaking down a series for a seventh installment only works if it stars Ron Perlman.

    Just don't.

    Even if you're a Metal Slug fan don't pay full price for this buy it used it's so bad It's Easily the worst metal slug    Just don't.

    Even if you're a Metal Slug fan don't pay full price for this

    buy it used

    it's so bad

    It's Easily the worst metal slug game out of the main series

    it's just so

    bad? what the **** ignition entertainment, i see why you went bankrupt

    this is awful

    I can't recommend this to anyone but metal slug fans, it's just bad and a really horrible misrepresentation of the series. The visuals are crap, it's extremely bland and man like the sound mixing is bad? Thankfully the XX version for PSP and XBOX360 is much better and much more worth your time.

    Bad difficulty balancing

    crap visuals

    unfair and cheap enemy placement that is further worsened by the crap visuals

    NO 2 PLAYER

    And the final Nail in the coffin

    if you have the sound effects set to 10 in the options and your DS's volume all the way up, avoid the laser power up

    i'm serious, idk wtf they did but it's too high pitched and sounds horribly disgusting, it stings my ears personally but i can also hear dog whistles so that may be part of it

    **** this piece of **** and **** you ignition entertainment, rest in piss    … Expand
