Is it still worth playing?

Four playable characters, Marco, Tarma, Eri and Fio, fight through five missions against numerous enemies in this 2003 side scrolling shooter, the last in the series to run on Neo Geo hardware. Vehicles include the Slug Mariner submarine, the Slug Flyer aircraft and the Slug Gunner, a walking robot. Players can dual-wield weapons and slide while shooting. It supports two-player cooperative play and lets completed missions be replayed. Sliding under fire in a fast side-scroller is a pleasure that has held up well even now.
