This is a Metal Slug game and everything that comes with that. Insane shooting, non stop action and zany humour. I've been a Metal Slug fan for a years and this game lives up to the Metal Slug name.

Great game, but sometimes a bit frustrating

This game is absolutely great. Its extremely fun running around and shooting and grenading and blowing things up all throughout the level. And although sometimes the levels are hard, they usually become quite easy to beat once you play them a few times. but them comes the tricky part. You spent a lot of time and effort to get to the boss. your doing just fine and it looks like you just might beat the boss. Then, when it looks like you've won, the boss goes wacko and promptly attempts a series of attacks which are practicly imposible to dodge. You die, the Mission Failed screen comes up, and you have to go through the level all over again.

This is what makes the game really frustrating for me and why I rated it a 4 even though it is exellent in every way.

a new layer of entretainment for the gameboy advance

Metal slug is a great game with good graphics, and music. It's an action packed shooter, with cool enimeis and great expsoshins. i reccomend this game for a metal slug fan, or a shoot em up fan. The only reason i gave this game 4 stars is because you die to easily and the bosses can get a little annoying.

a perfect arcade game

Metal Slug is by far the greatest run and gun game ever. Growing up my mom worked at a bowlling alley and my family was to poor to hier a baby sitter for me. So my mom would take me to work with her and leave me in the arcade at the bowlling alley. She would give me $5.00 in quarters to play the arcade games each time I came to work with her. While I was looking around the arcade I came across "Metal Slug 3". My eyes opened wide as I saw a preview of the soldier Marco running around killing off armies and armies of bad guys. The moment I saw that I started playing it non-stop until my pockets were empty of quarters. Now several years later they come out with "Metal Slug Advance" a game worthy of the great Metal Slug name. Now I dont have to spend quaters playing it at an arcade. I recommend this game to all Metal Slug fans.

ITS GOING TO BE SO AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!

One of the most fun and challenging games to play in the arcade way back when was SNK's Metal Slug. A 2-D side scroller similar to the old Contra games, you run and gun your way past hordes of challenging tanks and enemies until you reach a level boss. The game mechanics are almost identical to the classic game, as are the graphics despite instances of slowdown and a few drops in frame rate. The biggest con of Metal Slug Advance is what players new to the game will automatically notice. The learning curve is far from forgiving, as things go from easy to very, very hard rather quickly. Boss battles are the most challenging, and the most frustrating as new players will soon learn. Not to mention, the game is pretty short, but other than that you'll find some addictive and fun playability with Metal Slug. All in all, this is one classic game you really can't go too wrong with, but those new to the game should take fair warning before diving in.
