By July 2003, SNK was back as SNK Playmore (with Playmore being a company staffed by ex-SNK members anyway) and was snapping up companies like Brezzasoft (also ex-SNK hands), ADK and Sun Amusement to get back in the game, so to speak. Just like Metal Slug 4, it's necessary to go over the situation SNK was in when Metal Slug 5 got made- at the very least, it's a little better than last time. Post-SNK death, Metal Slug just couldn't catch a break!

Playing the first four Metal Slugs will probably be mandatory, repeat, mandatory.įrom 'cobbled-together' to 'rushed out the door'. Oh, blimey, another nail in the coffin that is Gaming Hell's credibility, as this ancient update should verify! Really getting some mileage out of this one!Īnyway, much like the Metal Slug 4 article- which is probably required reading- this one gets awfully beardy.

Metal Slug 5 - NEW METAL SLUG - READY STEADY-GO!! THE SOLDIERS ARE ALRIGHT!
