description
Metal Slug 6 is the latest arcade platform action hit from SNK Playmore, finally ported to PlayStation2™. Metal Slug 6 has originally been released on Atomiswave hardware, which is the first main game in the franchise not to run on SNK's Neo Geo MVS arcade hardware.
Metal Slug 6 is both a departure and a return of sorts for the series. Whereas Metal Slug 4 dealt with technological and cybernetic themes and Metal Slug 5 possessed a paranormal motif, Metal Slug 6 returns to the Rebel-Martian alliance featured in Metal Slugs 2, X, and 3, but on a much broader scale. Rather than repeating the previous games' events of the Martians breaking the alliance and the Rebels assisting the player in turn, the player now teams up with the Rebels and Martians to combat an even greater threat.

AWSOME metal slug!!!!!!!!! now one of my all time favorite metal slug games. mugs look awsome. got cheapest shipping (box) and mugs where in 3 cm deep of bubble wrap!!! you can also enable BLOOD!!!!!!!!!!! very very fun.
A really good game. Hard, but good. The only lag I've noticed in the game is during the middle of the first mission. The second boss is quite tricky if you don't kill it fast enough, and the third boss is damn near impossible.
I'd say this is a huge leap from Metal Slug 4 and 5, which were utterly disappointing. The soundtrack, levels and bosses are really nice. The sound effects have been changed (bullets sound a little different) but it isn't something you'll miss.
If you're a fan of the series, or you just like Metal Slug in general, go for it. There's an Easy (stops at the end of level 4) and Hard mode available. Surprisingly everything's in english, aside from the training school and a few bits here and there. No knowledge of japanese is required to play this game.
I don't expect this game to be on MAME or anything like that in awhile. I haven't even passed the third mission and I'm having a fun time with it (trying to clear everything as far as I can on a single credit (1cc)), so yeah, I highly recommend buying this if you're into Metal Slug games.
