I have some credit at EB, I figure I'll get this. I'm pretty critical of Metal Slug games though. I wasn't crazy about MS4 or 5, and there are a few little things with this release that bug me. Primarily the death animations from some weapons, and the option for blood. They're not a big enough deal to keep me from getting the game though. The life bar was never something I was crazy about either, I never liked that aspect of the NGP releases. As long as the run and gun gameplay is intact, I'll be happy.
 
Yes, actually I've been trying to unload it lately. I was disappointed, but then again my expectations were pretty high. Having a life bar rather than a set number of lives was really annoying to me, especially when you lose all your cards after you die. It really forces you to memorize each level, because if you die, you lose your progress. You have to get through each level and the boss without dying.

It's not a bad title, but nowhere near the quality of MS1/MSX/MS3.
 
well hey... I'd take it if you wanted to trade it in :)

I was really impressed with the game.  I didn't like the life bar either.. but this game would be pretty darn hard without it.
But the animation is good... so is the gameplay and music.

It sounds GREAT on the DS.


I do know some people were disappointed with it though.

You also can't change the button configuration, which is very annoying. I don't want to throw grenades with the R button, why not let me remap it to X or Y?
 
And the GBA ports lacking button options SUCKS. I had that problem with the Metroid games on GBA as well. At least Mega Man Zero lets you choose which weapon is on each button.
 
So did anyone else like Metal Slug Advance? 

I don't hear much about this game anymore... I Am curious what people think still.
