Metal Slug 7 due out in September News • News • Eurogamer.net

News DS

DS revamp makes Euro tracks.

Ignition has told Eurogamer that Metal Slug 7 for Nintendo DS will be released across Europe this September.

Metal Slug 7, which first appeared 12 years ago, will have its 2D run-and-gun gameplay sprinkled with more missions, characters and weapons than ever before.

Players will also face new bosses and have access to new Slug vehicles and game modes. And maybe some poisonous pellets - get off our tomatoes.

We hope the Metal Slug charm is as faithfully recreated as in the the third instalment on Xbox Live.

Don't you mean the first Metal Slug?

It's ok, backgrounds are a bit rubbish, but the sprite animation, although mostly recycled from the previous games is pretty impressive.

It's actually brilliant. (WoS subscribers can read the full-length review on my site, but the summary is "Best Metal Slug ever".)

Metal Slug 3 isn't better than bowel cancer, never mind any other Metal Slug game.

(PS �50 says you've never even played MS7.)

Bowel cancer must be pretty sweet then.

And yes, I've played it. It's great.

Then you must be drunk, because nobody who can appreciate MS7 could possibly have any time for the rancid, fetid hunk of shite that is MS3.

In order, incidentally, it goes:

MS7 > MS1 > MSX > MS2 > MS5 > MS4 >MS6 > Hitler > MS3

I would've rated Hitler a bit higher, though.

But yes, otherwise you are only almost completely incorrect.

Science has proved that when survivors of the Holocaust were shown Metal Slug 3, they became nostalgic for the early 1940s. FACT!

Judging by the general mood of the posts i am sure this is a good time to say..
Metal Slug 3 was the best metal slug ever, all the others were shit!!

I didn't get on with MS3 either. The others are a bit hard to rank though because I really enjoy all of them. 2 and X maybe a bit more than the rest.
