Is it still worth playing?
General Morden's Rebel Army is back, and this time the soldiers team up with the Martians against a new race of invaders, in this 2006 run and gun arcade game from SNK Playmore. Six soldiers are playable, each with a unique ability: Marco shoots harder, Tarma is strong in vehicles, Fio starts with a Heavy Machine Gun after each death and Eri throws grenades in several directions. Ralf and Clark of the Ikari Warriors join as new characters, with Ralf's Vulcan Punch and Clark's suplex. Characters can now carry two weapons and switch between them, and a new sword weapon deals heavy damage up close. It is the first in the series to leave Neo Geo hardware for the Atomiswave platform. Easy mode lowers the difficulty but ends before the last mission. Outside Japan it was released in the Metal Slug Anthology. Carrying two weapons still gives every shootout more tactical choices.
