I give it 8/10, as well.

The graphics are charming, the animation is great, the pacing is fantastic, but the continue system is identical to that of the original Contra, minus the ability to earn additional lives. Contra was far easier than this game, too, so you really get worked over (and possibly frustrated) by the strictness of the continue system here.

The lack of an online co-op mode hurts it, too. This could be fixed with an update, but as the franchise has changed hands since this game was made the chances of this ever happening are somewhere between "snowballs chance in hell" and "chance of the Arizona Cardinals ever winning the Super Bowl".

I didn't like this game, it was short and no where near worth the money.

eh i think spending 40$ is a little much for a short game like this, i could understand if like it had more lvl or better xbox live features such as multiply co-op and such.

so i think i will wait for the price to drop or just find a used copy

I've been going all around my town looking for this game but nobody cares to carry it... so I figure I'll have to get it online or something, really sucks though

So I finally picked up Metal Slug 3 today. After calling a bunch of stores, I was able to find it for $45 Canadian. That's about $30 US.

I played it for a couple of hours this afternoon with a friend and we had a blast. He's not so great at games and kept losing all his lives quickly, so we only got to level 3. The game is awesome though. A must buy if you love old-school 2D side scrollers.

I have no clue what half.com is, haha, but I'll keep my eyes out for this game to hit $20...

Half.com is an affiliate of eBay and you can buy stuff from other users for brand new or used, kinda like Amazon I guess.

I rented this yesterday and it's fun and bad ass. Kinda hard though. I suck at it.
