C'mon Boy! Them Sweet Boys declare a war on long narrative driven games in favor of tight arcade run-n-gun action. Metal Slug 3 is a 2000 run-n-gun platformer created by SNK for arcade consoles and the Neo Geo, and is a personal arcade favorite of both Joe and Ethan. While the difficult and punishing gameplay might make players run home to their mommies, Joe and Ethan cheat their asses off to beat this retro-tough game. Come for the beautiful sprite art and tight design, stay for some particularly animated reminiscing about arcades. As a bonus, we also rank the first set of games that we have covered for the podcast.
