🟡 Metal Slug X (1999, Neo Geo) 🟢 REVIEW: SNK revitalised Metal Slug 2, fixing crippling slow-down issues whilst introducing new weapons, new enemies and a host of tweaks. I recap Metal Slug's finest hour, and arguably the Neo Geo's best game. 😊👇 #gaming #snk 🔴 www.thepixelempire.net/metal-slug-x...

Metal Slug X Neo Geo review: A reworking of MS2, SNK made good on their excellent run 'n' gun's promise, resulting in one of the shooters of the nineties. Frantic, cartoon arcade gaming across 6 missions.
