This news article is open to all people temporarily, as is the case with most Gamespot content these days (you need to pay to get access to all Gamespot reviews and movies, but its worth it, great site).

Gamespot didn't write a full review of Slug 4, they said their review is coming later. But its cool to have it mentioned at all these days!!

Hey, Chimp, I caught the review too. It happily surprised me when I saw it. Great site. I paid the annual fee too. The only site I know of where it's worth it.

Sigh... Gamespot....sometimes I want to strangle their writers. This is a direct quote:

That's not to say that Metal Slug 4 has lost its trademark sense of humor. Like in previous games, you must still rescue hostages who, when freed, will present you with an oversized pair of underpants (a reference to the Adam Sandler film Happy Gilmore). <hr></blockquote>

Happy Gilmore?!

Umm...I don't think so.

I read it also.It was a nice surprise to see that on a major US videogame site.

Its cool to think that a big game site like GameSpot is still keeping tabs on the old Neo Geo

Keep an eye out for our full review of Metal Slug 4, which is coming soon. Sweet.

Chimp, thanks for the information.

They review every Neo Geo game that comes out. They just did a KoF 2001 review around the time it came out.

Nifty, yes.


But I agree... what the HELL was that Happy Gilmore bit?

Quote:

"Metal Slug 4 seems like something of a return to the original Metal Slug game, before the series went, as some fans put it, "all crazy." Metal Slug 2, Metal Slug X, and Metal Slug 3 all had completely bizarre enemies, including aliens, mummies, and zombies. Metal Slug 4 doesn't seem to have any of these strange enemies to fight. Instead, much like in the original Metal Slug, you'll fight only enemy soldiers and a wide variety of enemy vehicles."


I guess these guys really didn't get that far. Only soldiers? Yeah, and the Happy Gilmore reference? <img src="graemlins/spock.gif" border="0" alt="[Spock]" /> Poo to them with knobs on! <img src="graemlins/angry.gif" border="0" alt="[Angry]" />

Completely off topic but i love that sig MotW. The funny part is that if he lived in another country someone with his kind of wealth probably would have some form of personal army.
