Tis a pretty decent read, though not a review it mentions that there will be 2 new modes, Storming the Mother Ship and Fat Island. (not sure if they're exclusive to the Xbox version & not the PS2) They keep mentioning about Metal Slug 6 already being in arcades, very weird. You can tell the guy who's writing this knows very little about Neo-Geo related stuff.

i guess he keeps insisting that Metal Slug 6 is out because he may have counted Metal Slug X in the count (hence MS5 is the 6th in the series).

and yeah, the fat island and ufo mode! it's included in the japanese MS3 (which i have).

in fat island you try to gain as many calories as possible. food and enemies are the things you see while jumping around the place.

the UFO lets you use one out of the 3 Morden soldiers (grenadier, pistol and riot shield wielder, or bazooka guy) against the aliens in the UFO (don't worry, you're not alone. you have the whole morden army with you as cover-fire and your cover ). you only have one life and no continues and, instead of using bombs (like Marco and Tarma and gang), you use the button to summon the "laughing bald machine gun guy' ("See you in hell!" you all know him)

very fun diversions from the regular game if you ask me (especially the UFO! very amusing)
