Yup. That's definitely Metal Slug. Not that there's anything wrong with that. It's one of those games where, so long as they don't muck about too much with the core gameplay, I'm perfectly happy to go along for the ride.
By the same token, it doesn't exactly get me pumped either. I know I'll play it because I play all of them but can you really proclaim it as "The Ultimate Game" when it looks exactly like the last one?
What do you guys think? Are you excited for this when it comes out in November?

and it does keep up with its metal slug difficulty
but its seriously an awesome game
the games is fun but the lack of multiplayer, just suck balls
Every torrent with it is dead, and on eBay I've seen an offer of reselling original discs + album for ... 200$.
It's great soundtrack, shame it's not accessible.
Ah, juveline crime... oh so great...
