Yep, ripple and 3D effects are nice, i like the fact that prisonners in this level are not the good old POW with long hair and beard ^^
This slug is starting to look nice... but i fear it will be terribly short...

OMFG ASL!!! This game will own me, with debts to pay!!!

Ok, the music in Level 1 was pure fuckin death-chord grindcore metal. Level whatever is old-school speed metal, including the boss music. The Third level boss is not only innovative but creative as well. I'm like, "Holy shit, the thing blasts the floor below you too!?"

The mecha slug can turn around (required for the level as you saw), same great animation throughout, and I love how they kept the good stuff from previous slugs and just added a bit more finness and flair to it (ie the wailing lead guitars and the bada bing da bashhhh at the end of a level.)

BTW, have you guys noticed on Video 1 that you can hear some background voices as Marco shoots the villagers with the Enemy Chaser? Notice how also what an interesting coincidence it is that the prisoner propelling the canoe is rowing faster during the end of the video while you can hear the metal blaring out.... I realize he's 'changing lanes' but looks like he's headbangin, hehe..

So fuckin cool, so thank you SNKPlaymore!!! If you have a Japanese phrase for YOU FUCKIN' ROCK:buttrock: , please accept!!!

Maybe SNKP does listen to us after all, huh fellas?

I have built a time machine and already gone forward in time to send Shawn my preorder!!!

Just to correct some of you, the spider on the building boss is the 3rd mission boss, not the second ;)

metal slug 5

i also noticed new tanks and also there is always so much on screen with the tanks you shoot one more arrive. i like the noise the tribes people with masks make when you shoot them and also the noise the prisoner did at the end of the video 7 looking forward now to more videos coming out and also if they post the music to the game.

That mission 3 boss looks great. I love the pseudo 3D effect as you fall, one of the neo's most classic 'hacks'. :)

I am a bit disappointed to see that some of the static items don't seem to take any incremental damage as you shoot them. Take the truck from beginning of movie4 for example. No deterioration as it's being shot. No big deal though, a small nitpick if anything.

I think they turned the diff. level down or something... dunno if that affects how strong the bosses are. But you're right, they were pretty unflashy.

Looks amazing! Lots of new situations. It's just painful to watch how horrible this player is. Is it so hard to simply duck under a shot? Geez! The third boss didn't die easy, guys. Look again. This person just tosses grenades out like crazy because you get 10 more every time you die.
