  • Summary: Players control Marco and Tarma, both members of the special-ops force Team Peregrine Falcon (commonly known as Team PF), and battle their way through stage after stage of intense action.

PlayersPlayers control Marco and Tarma, both members of the special-ops force Team Peregrine Falcon (commonly known as Team PF), and battle their way through stage after stage of intense action. The goal is to try to overthrow General Morden and win back the stolen weapon, the Metal Slug. Players must blast through waves of enemies and machines (while also jumping over any obstacles in the way) to advance through the stages. It's not as hopeless as it might sound, though - weapons such as heavy machine guns, shotguns, rocket launchers and flamethrowers, as well as the Metal Slug itself (which appears frequently in the game), will make the battle easier.

    There is an awful lot to like about ACA NEOGEO Metal Slug. Charming graphics, unforgiving skill based gameplay, pad bitingly hard bosses and a touch of slowdown combine to make a heady brew.

    "Metal Slug" is a SNK classic. A cartoony, humorous take on "Contra", it inspired several sequels that added new features and playable"Metal Slug" is a SNK classic. A cartoony, humorous take on "Contra", it inspired several sequels that added new features and playable characters. Simple, but fun, it's a rousing blast to play through especially with a partner. Dopey foot soldiers, fighter jets, enemy tanks and gigantic machines of mayhem are what stand between you and victory. The "Metal Slug" of the title refers to vehicles you can use to bring maximum destruction. This ACA port includes 7 levels of difficulty, a Hi Score Mode and a Caravan Mode (a 5 minute mode). If you love retro shooters, than you'll find "Metal Slug" to be great fun. I would rate it with an 8.7 out of 10. Expand
