The big improvement here is that the levels now have branching paths that you can take. It does what the previous games did and it does it just as well if not better.
The core gameplay is unchanged and I am not going to criticize the game for that at all. Well, that turns out to not exactly be the case as the story of Metal Slug 3 involves aliens and an alien mothership! It is great stuff and thanks to the amazing graphics, it is brought to life very well. It is set many years after the events of Metal Slug 2, but once again you feel that the no-good General Morden is up to his old tricks. I swear for an arcade shooter, the Metal Slug series has a far more interesting story than it has any right to! I really like the direction that the story went with this third game. I am going out a limb here and saying that Metal Slug 3 is my favorite in the entire series! Which is really hard to say as this is a series where I actually like pretty much every game that is in it! For me, Metal Slug 3 just nails the formula and it was a fitting end to the “real” SNK before they became what we pretty much have today.
