    If you haven't heard of metal slug then you should play this game..just remember the neo geo version is 3 times as fun

    It's Contra, but goofier.

    A tricked-out classic that you can enjoy for the weekend with your buddies, and have a laugh as you go along.

    Metal Slug 2 Redux

    By flintheart_glomgold | Review Date: Oct 29, 2007 | ARC

    Those of you thinking that Metal Slug X is a brand new game are mistaken, I am afraid to say. It's actually just a little bit bigger and a little bit better version of Metal Slug 2. It was a fine game on it's own, but no... Read Full Review

    By Vincent9mm | Review Date: Jun 01, 2007 | PS

    A port that could've used a little more work

    By GnarlsB | Review Date: Dec 21, 2006 | PS

    This Playstation port of Metal Slug X is anything but perfect, but what is here is pretty good and decent enough for a purchase for any hardcore fan. The one problem this port has is the flaws with slowdown and lack of ... Read Full Review
