Metal Slug Advance: An Insane Generation from Metal Slug Series

Metal Slug is back! Right now on the next-gen console, Game Boy Advance. Since the first release, Metal Slug has been continuously adding gamers’ hunger of the classical genre, run and gun. The game itself also becomes the icon of fun, pleasurable choice to spend some spare time with either friends or family. For those who have a GBA, this game is worth enough to test your skills. Unfortunately, at least the players should have an insane skill to finish the game. If not, you may not end the game, even mission one.

The players can choose two characters; Walter and Tyra. Like the previous sequels, SNK still not exploring more about characters. Either Walter or Tyra, you will end up playing similar character except the physical appearances and the screams! SNK should has to work more in this section because it would be more fun if we are offered a set of characters with different abilities, weapons, or supports.

Why insane skill? Listen up! You are going to finish five provided missions in this game. Each mission has somewhat irritated environment and uncountable number of madmen. You have only ONE live to survive through the mission. Well then, you cannot just knock on their doors and ask for rations if you get hurt. There are no elixirs. Even if you are expert in this kind of game, sure you cannot finish the first mission at a glance. That is why you have to be insane somehow to finish this little game. Or you can just google it and find the cheats? Whatever, make your life easier that way. There is an additional feature in which you can find cards dropped by the hostages. Some of these cards doubled the ammo or adding abilities. Against the massive number of enemies, this feature failed to get attention from players. We can also check the name of the saved hostages via main menu. Another meaningless improvement. However, you will be rewarded five bonus dungeons after collecting all of the cards. Some missions, like mission three and four, are full of secret passages and traps. Some passages are not accessible without the ability of super jump, which is dealing with cheats. Again, cheating here is the only thinkable way to bring the game to the end. It is up to you.

By looking at the facts, this Metal Slug is just another piece of SNK’s daily products. But, it is still fun to play!
