But the frequent chatter of late intercepted by the expanded and consolidated Intelligence Agency suggests this peace will not last long. But his whereabouts still remain unknown.īut even after with the remnants of Morden's army neutralized, our heroes' requests for discharge from the service were still refused.įor a brief moment, there was peace. Morden's third attempt at world conquest was over. Special Illustration by TONKO for the SNK Brand 40th Anniversary.The story listed on the Metal Slug Anniversary site is as follows:Ī farewell to arms―it was all supposed to have finished with that final battle. The first game's story involved the Peregrine Falcon (PF) Squad, a small but skilled team of soldiers serving under the Regular Army's special operations division, who fight against the army of General Donald Morden in order to prevent a massive coup d'etat and the creation of a New World Order under General Morden. Later games featured characters from the Sparrows Unit, which is under the control of the Regular Army's intelligence division. In the games following the first, the PF Squad also battles an alien threat to Earth (the Mars People), as well as several other supernatural threats including yetis, zombies, ambulatory Venus flytraps, giant crabs and mummies. Outlandish elements were removed from the fourth game to return to the feel of the original title, which resulted in poor critical and commercial reception.

The fifth moved to the motif of modern guerrilla warfare, leaving only traces of the series signature quirky humor and paranormal enemies (except for the final boss). Metal Slug 6 returned to the plot of the first three installments, bringing back Morden's Rebel Army and the Mars People. The mechanics of the series is characteristic of run and guns: The enemies come in hordes, the weapons have high fire rates. All of these characteristics come from the Contra series, which the game's mechanics is based on. Metal Slug however takes the concepts introduced in Contra and expands upon them. First and foremost is the ability to perform melee attacks. In most run and guns, contact with an enemy leads to immediate death. In this series, contact only results in either party's death if an attack is performed. This leads to the ability for the player to run in and use melee attacks to take down a number of troops.

There was a PS2 port in September 14, 2006. With Metal Slug 6 though they have actually added in two new I guess you could say guest characters from other franchises which is really cool.
Not only does having the two extra characters give you more choice when it comes to who you play as. The characters now have their own special ability which means it actually makes a difference who you pick. With a new Metal Slug game comes new Slugs. Donkey Slug, Slug Digger, Slug Gunner Prototype and the Rootmars are the new weapons of mass destruction you can use. I love the Donkey Slug as any Slug that actually uses an animal is always something that I get a real kick out of. While Metal Slug 6 has that classic Metal Slug gameplay we all know and love. The game has a weapon stock system at play and this can come in very handy. Basically, this allows you to carry with you two powered up guns at a time and you can switch between them the scoring system is also slightly changed which allows you to rack up some major points. This is called the rush blaster system and it is something that I really do like. The Metal Slug series is known for being rather challenging. This game though does have two modes to play.
You have an easy mode which makes things much easier on you and you have the heavy machine gun as your default weapon. You cannot play the final level though if you play the game on easy mode.
