Metal Slug X takes you around the world, from Egypt to Siberia and China. Metal Slug confined its adventure to Western Europe.
Plus its hilarious to stab enemies to death with a fork and slap them with your belt. The extra firepower is massive, to the point you might actively want to become fat. Although you move slower all of your special weapons are stronger. Each too much food and you become overweight. What is both a hindrance and a help is fatso mode. Slugs appear more frequently throughout the game yet they don’t feel overpowered. The VTOL is a fighter jet that sadly sees little use. The Slugnoid is only available to fight the second level boss in one of the most memorable encounters in an action game. The Camel Slug is exactly that, a camel with Vulcan cannons attached. There are four in addition to the standard tank. The distribution of weapons is greater so that unless you die frequently you will rarely use the standard pistol.Īside from more weapons there are new slugs too. The drop shot is a bouncing land mine that is better than the standard hand tossed grenades. The laser rifle pierces through multiple enemies at once but burns through ammo fast. The iron lizard is a remote controlled bomb that travels along the ground and is super powerful. The enemy chaser is your standard homing shot. The laser rifle, iron lizard, drop shot, and enemy chaser are all excellent additions to the game and serve different purposes. Metal Slug X adds a truckload of new weapons to your arsenal. This is a much better version of an already great game and a must buy. Metal Slug X is an upgraded version of Metal Slug 2 that adds a lot of content including weapons, music, and enemies as well as remixing the levels. But for as good as that game was it did have some glaring flaws. With its popularity it was only a matter of time for a sequel and Metal Slug 2 followed soon after. In a sea of fighting games and the occasional shooter a bad ass side scrolling action game along the lines of Contra was needed. Metal Slug was a breath of fresh air within the Neo Geo library.
