  1. As far as the franchise goes, Metal Slug XX is pretty accessible, and most action-oriented gamers will enjoy it.
  2. Still, for its budget price ($19.99), Metal Slug XX more than delivers on its promise of old-school mayhem.
  3. The game features a good coop mode, but only a few hours of gameplay is just not enough.

The game feels tooMetal Slug XX is a decent game, the gameplay is the same as The Metal Slug Anthology. The graphics are a little improved. The game feels too easy and its also to short. Their are 6 playable characters and 7 playable missions, but the design of the levels feels like they rushed them and in return they made an okay game, it could've been much better. Full Review »

Nice cartoony graphics, humorous and with a big variety of big guns and bad guys to blast. A little old fashioned but retro gamers will lap it up. Full Review »

Some ugly, blurry backgrounds coupled with nothing new, a botched "remake" job that has it's sprites occasionally be a wrong color with some boring as hell levels that feel they were outsourced to some random dolts. The bosses are easily this game's best feature with their lively appereances, sporting all sorts of surprises and mostly great designs. (being everything the rest of the game isn't.) This "enhanced" version of metal slug 7 adds the worst metal slug announcer (personally) only slightly updated backgrounds that still look like ass, 3 alternate paths with only 1 being clearly visible, and an OP waifu. Don't bother playing unless you want to try the bosses yourself or you're *that* starved for more metal slug, this game should've just been a boss rush. Full Review »
