The first one was great, but this one is even better. The intro screen, the character selection, the array of weaponry and powerups, the enemies, the sceneries, all the detail sprites like the chickes and pigs and other creatures walking around the background, everything contributes to one of the most detailed action games I've ever played. The game reminds a lot of Metal Slug, just like the original (no doubt that's intentional), but unlike the original there is so much material in this game! Additionally the controls are smooth, the background music is intense (and it has an Asian sound to it). Like Metal Slug it's a game where you just keep going and going and going, there's no complexity, just a lot of carnage and fun. I loved this game, and if there's a 2, there's going to be a 3... right? Looking forward to it!
