How can you say ugly graphics? Shock troopers 2 has some of the best graphics seen on the home system. It is to bad the game has so many sloooowwwwdown but overal it is one of the best games around!!

I agree. I enjopyed Shock troopers 2 as much as I did any of the metal slug games. It's just too bad that it was so damn hard. I never did finish it <IMG SRC="smilies/frown.gif" border="0">

I was kinda disappointed with Shock Troopers 2. I thought the first Shock Troopers game was WAY better, in terms of graphics especially. ST2 graphics are washed out and lack detail, vs. ST1 which has rich colors and excellent detail.

MVS couldn't handle ST2s graphics... half the game was slowed down because of explosions, or too many characters firing..

I'm one of the few people that doesn't like the Shock Troopers games. I just didn't care for the play control nor the graphics. Hmm.

god, I would kill for a Shock Troopers: 3rd Squad. Mainly so they could get things right since they dropped the ball on 2nd Squad. If it played like the first, but implemented certain features from 2nd Squad (i.e. the rising multiplier bonus for consecutive close-range kills, that was a great idea), I'd be a very happy man. AND IT'D NEED TO HAVE TEAM PLAY, DAMMIT!

Everyone has a right to their opinions... personally, I think the Metal Slug series is SO overrated. The original Shock Troopers is way more replayable and more fun than the entire Metal Slug series to me.

Contrary to you(many) I'm really fond of shock troopers 2!!
I didn't play to the first one but I played to the Contra serie..and for my part ST2 is better according to nearly all the points of view...nearly <IMG SRC="smilies/wink.gif" border="0">...but better after all!
I find it more fun than all the contra! <IMG SRC="smilies/tongue.gif" border="0">
.......
The only negative point about ST2 is the game isn't enought long <IMG SRC="smilies/mad2.gif" border="0">

Hi,again!Shock Troopers 1 is the best shooter-arcade i ever played!!!It rules becouse :1. has a exellent anime grafic
2.select 8 different heros
3.select of different stages and ways
4.and more...
The second sqard - Schook Troopers 2 isnt good as the first one(grafic realy sux!).The Heroes arent balanced(try to finish it by single with Angel or the other girl).The final Boss will CRUSH u!Try it with Leon(the strongest hero)and u can make it without losing a life(he has the best bombs and weapon)!The final animations are really ugly to...
P.S-my hi-scores in this two games are:
ST1-18 000 000p
ST2-10 000 000P

Freeman: yes, character balance in ST 2nd Squad sucks. But it's certainly not impossible to do one-life finishes with Angel or Lulu, I've done it with both (but usually just get one-credit finishes instead). Leon is #2, I'd say the best character is Toy because of the awesome destructive power of his bomb. It destroys bullets too like Leon's! VERY useful on the last boss.

Last boss is hard but manageable. Just save all your bombs for when all the satellites come out, and then be prepared to do a LOT of jumping. Gotta love that slow-mo!

My high scores:

Shock Troopers 1 - 29,574,600
Shock Troopers 2nd Squad - 14,145,770

I'd have to agree with this. The ST1 graphics were a lot better than ST2. The rendered graphics date a lot faster than ST1's hand drawn art. And the slowdown in ST2 doesn't help things either.

Shock Troopers' games were made by Saurus.
SNK made the Metal Slug games, and these are way better than Contra... ;)

It took you 12 years to write this post?

lol

I too liked the first one much more as seemed more serious, the sprites in the second one were more aimed for youngsters plus the bullet dots looked crap and unrealistic.

What is it with people bumping old threads at the moment... at least it isn't in Sales as that is really annoying.

So when did you say Shock Troopers 3 is coming out... :D
