![]() ![]() In 2007 however (2006 for the US), we were treated to Metal Slug Anthology for PSP, Playstation 2 and Nintendo Wii. There were ports to all kinds of the consoles such as the Playstation, Saturn, PS2 and original Xbox but these tended to vary in terms of quality and accuracy. If you weren’t rich enough to own a Neo Geo and splurge on massive cartridges sporting eye-watering price tags (so most of us then) then it was difficult to be a Metal Slug fan though. It was – as previously mentioned – challenging too but not necessarily in an outrageously cheap way not to begin with anyway – that’s a sin for some of the sequels to atone for and we’ll hold court on that subject in due course.īy the time SNK called time on the creaking Neo Geo hardware in 2004, the system had hosted six Metal Slug games. The game oozed charm and was overflowing with character thanks to the comical nature of the cartoon-like visuals which should have been at odds with the military theme and bright red blood. blended tight, challenging gameplay with their stunning 2D artistry to create one of the defining Neo Geo experiences and a killer app for the (incredibly expensive) home version of the hardware. Released in 1996 for SNK’s Neo Geo arcade hardware, Metal Slug quickly became one of the quintessential run ‘n gun experiences that the rest of the genre suddenly found itself compared to. For those already in the know, Metal Slug is a stone-cold arcade classic requiring no introduction but for the uninformed, here’s the deal. If you’ve lived behind a tower of modern games or are a younger gamer then you may not be familiar with SNK’s Metal Slug series and that is truly a shame because you might be missing out on something special. Release Date: 2007 (Europe) | Developer: SNK Playmore/Terminal Reality | Publisher: Ignition (Europe) I considered it to be underrated a hidden gem if you will.īut how does the 2020 edition of me feel about Beat Down? Continue reading “Beat Down: Fists of Vengeance ” → When I originally played this, I loved it. First up, Beat Down: Fists of Vengeance, a 2005 beat ’em up from Capcom. Rather than simply get shot however, I’ve decided to play some of these games again to see whether or not they actually hold up in the harsh light of 2020. I’ve long considered this shelf to be slimmed down to the bare essentials but when “essentials” is still around fifty titles, there remains space for improvement. Tying in with this philosophy, I recently decided to turn a critical eye towards my PS2 collection. You have to be realistic sometimes and simply let go. After all, there isn’t the time to keep up with new releases let alone return to everything I’ve already experienced. I used to keep everything but, over time, I’ve managed to wrestle the inner hoarder into partial submission. Continue reading “Death by Degrees ” →Įvery so often I will actively purge my videogame collection of all the games I know I’ll never play again, or those that I haven’t touched for years. ![]() There are loads of things about Death by Degrees that piss me off and were rightly criticised in period, but I feel that the good outweighs the crappy to enough of a degree (get it?) that I feel motivated to defend Namco’s Tekken spin-off. I disagreed with these scores vehemently back in the day and, after revisiting the game in 2020, I can honestly say that I still enjoy this game. Unfortunately, Nina’s solo adventure received poor to (at best) lukewarm review scores on release, and I even recall seeing Death by Degrees in a countdown of worst games for the PS2. And why not? Nina Williams was/is one of Tekken‘s most popular mainstays, and there was no reason why an action-based spin-off shouldn’t work when the Tekken team had previously ventured outside of the standard 1-v-1 fighting with the Tekken Force modes.

Unlike many of Bradbury’s stories of the early 1950s it’s not easy to discern a Cold War allegory in ‘All Summer in a Day’, but the story is clearly meant to be about more than an imagined scenario in which children on Venus experience the sun for the first time. Many of Ray Bradbury’s stories are allegories of a sort. (See ‘The Pedestrian’ for a different, if related, work on this theme.)Īs soon as the children have been exposed to the healing powers of nature for just a short while, they appear to recover their conscience and empathy, and regret depriving Margot of the experience they have had – the last time they will have it as children, since they will be sixteen and on the brink of adulthood when the sun next comes out on Venus. Bradbury was, at heart, a Romantic in the Wordsworthian sense, who believed that we need fresh air and open countryside and a close relationship with nature, and his stories are full of warnings about what can go wrong when human beings come to depend too much on technology and are deprived of this bond with the natural world and the open air. The constant rainstorms on Venus have deprived the children of this experience. The implication of this ending, then, is that the sun – and, by extension, being able to go out among nature and appreciate it – is good for us as human beings. But when they return from their brief time among the sunshine, they appear to be filled with remorse for depriving her of the opportunity to share in the experience by locking her in the closet. Before the sun appears, they are sullen and irritable, and clearly resent Margot because she can remember what the sun looks and feels like. One of the things which can take us by surprise upon reading the story is the swift change of character in the children, especially their ringleader, William. The symbolism of ‘All Summer in a Day’ is subtle, but, like the sun in the story and its effects on the children, goes to work on us as readers in ways which we may not fully realise. ![]() ![]() ![]() If you are hoping that this particular stray dog will benefit from the resources and experience of UBS, it is important to talk to a board member or key coordinator to make sure UBS has the capacity, such as donations, fosters, and other resources, to take on this dog in need. You may wish to establish a tiered communications tree, where a nexus of helpers receives information the fastest, easiest way, such as through texts or a dedicated Facebook page, and certain people are responsible for calling volunteers who aren’t able to access those main communication channels. Some people like to receive texts or Facebook messages, while others need to be called or emailed. Agree on avenues of communication that work for all members of the group. Try to assign tasks that match a person’s abilities and availability. Whenever possible, write down or record contact information for everyone involved with the capture of a dog. Strangers banding together to help a stray dog is great, but these newly-formed, spontaneous working groups can have problems when people disagree on the goal or methods. When helping a stray dog, you will usually find yourself teaming up with people you just met. ![]() If you don’t know the best way to go about something, please ask before proceeding. In most cases, there is an alternative method that will allow you to help that stray dog without risking personal injury. If you are a volunteer for UBS, please understand that if we ask for your help with a stray, we are never asking you to do anything that puts your personal health and safety at excessive risk. Examples of risky behavior dog rescuers sometimes engage in include: stopping in the middle of a busy freeway for a dog trying to catch a dog showing obvious signs of fear and aggression, without using the proper equipment going alone into unsafe neighborhoods or wild landscapes to catch a dog trespassing on private property and texting or using social media while driving. You can’t help dogs in the future if you are injured, dead, or in jail. Please don’t put yourself at excessive risk to help a stray dog. If you have any questions or suggestions for improvement, please email.

At least, this is how things are meant to play out, but initially, the urge is strong for everyone in the team to just leap into action and flail away at opponents. Renar is another formidable fighter but favors agility over armor, while Vorga is best kept behind the frontlines to provide support for the team through healing. Rathka is a frontline fighter with a massive shield and enough armor to take on an entire team. The game is played in the third person, and players have access to three initial characters.
