04.07.2022Great classics! I love the Metal Slug series, it's always been a toss up between 2 and 3 for my favorite one.

30.06.2022I do agree 👍
Trea2030
30.06.2022Honorable mention I’d like to add is “MERCS” which is “Rambo III” on steroids 😎!!!
REDGRAIN
30.06.2022I really can't pick the best Metal Slug because I just want to replay them all, all the time.

30.06.2022If your looking for a unrelated successor to the wonderful Gunstar Heroes then you definitely need to look up Rapid Reload on the PS1
BritishFreddyFazbear🇬🇧
30.06.2022Contra, metal slug series and that shooting game Blue Dolphin by Sammy
J.L. Avey
30.06.2022If you are talking run and gun you have to mention at least one Metal Slug.
Matthew Camara
30.06.2022I've tried to really like Gunstar heroes I just find it overrated.

30.06.2022Great thumbnail and great video!
2 x 4bit modding
30.06.2022Man you can pull off the bandana.
Hiker Clarence
30.06.2022Worth noting- gunstar heroes was released in 3D on the 3ds eshop

28.06.2022Here's an underrated cult classic:
Undeadline (MSX2, X68, Megadrive)
Ohh and Elemental Master!

28.06.2022WHERE'S PAC MAN???? ah-DuHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHh
indyracingnut
28.06.2022I would add both NES classics Commando and Gunsmoke. Same type of shooter but totally different at the same time.
Shining Phantasy
28.06.2022Even if you did live in close proximity to a good arcade the NES version of Contra was clearly a superior crafted effort of that title with far better replay value. Contra in the arcade wasn't all that well distributed and in the case that you came across one there were many better options around the arcade to exhaust your quarters/tokens.
Phantom Fiction
28.06.2022All great games, John. Thanks for the video.
vgamerz2k
28.06.2022contra returns is not free, it has in-app purchases. not worth it. very disappointed in John for pushing this game.
Jango Bango
28.06.2022Lilo and Stitch for GBA surprised me by being a decent run and gun, atleast in the stich portions. Thanks for the videos!
mtshark7
28.06.2022Nice top 5 list John! It's a shame Metal Slug 3 was never released on the Neo Geo CD, we only got the first 2 games.

27.06.2022I swear to god if I see another add for this shite Contra mobile game I’m gonna lose my mind. The game is garbage
jim krom
27.06.2022I loved gunstar heroes on my Megadrive, I would suggest you try playing an amazing Amiga game that does not get mentioned often, called Ruff'n'tumble. It reminds of gunstar heroes in many ways and have to say I enjoyed it more back in the day. Honorable mention to Turrican 2 also on the amiga
NALTO
27.06.2022I see the adventures of Batman and Robin for Sega Genesis, I like.
stoo jona
27.06.2022I cant argue with that list , I prefer metal slug 3 to contra but they are very different games and contra is simply the big daddy number 1 high lord undisputed champeen of run and guns. Nice vid MR H

27.06.2022Run & gun … awesome genre …
KingCobra
27.06.2022I remember playing contra In the arcades. Awesome game. The Nintendo version is also awesome I played that mostly cuz the arcade version wasn't available. I love these videos John keep em coming!
samsoulee
27.06.2022Demon front is also very good .
Dirtface 59
27.06.2022i have to learn how to play alien soldier i have it.
BlackSunshine
27.06.2022Really impressed by that new mobile Contra game. Way too much going on in the menus, very over the top with customisations etc like a typical mobile game but overall very impressive. There's a great game under all the mobile bs
HASO
27.06.2022Love Shock Troopers
Tamsin Lobdell Mugg
26.06.2022As much as I love Contra, I would replace it with Super C for one thing and one thing only: The Babalu Destructoid Mechanism!
Rodrigo Pimentel
26.06.2022Recently got Gigantic Army on the Nintendo Switch. Fun game!! Physicalbis also very colectable.
MrCraze38
26.06.2022I personally like both Contra 3: Alien Wars and Super C better than the original Contra. They would both be on the top of my list.
floyd martinez
26.06.2022Excellent selection John! I love all five of those games ,but I also love Cannon Spike on the Dreamcast!
Riz2336
26.06.2022I was thinking you couldn't not mention Metal Slug, that is my go to run and gun
Charley Barley
26.06.2022Man, I think The Adventures of Batman and Robin looks great but plays like shit. Definitely a let down.
T.L. Cain
26.06.2022These are the 5 "run and gun" games I'd recommend in addition to yours, John.
5 Rolling Thunder II (I and III are good too, but I prefer II)
4 RoboCop Vs. Terminator
3 Contra Hard Corps
2 Zombies Ate My Neighbors
1 Sunset Riders
Cristian
26.06.2022Best miniature so far
Andrey Sergeev
26.06.2022Even though John mostly reviews stupid genres like fighting or shooters, I still give him a like
Josh O'Shea
26.06.2022I think that I'd have to put Metal Slug 3 in my top 10 favourite games of all time. It was the first Metal Slug game that I ever played and I instantly fell in love with it. Only problem I had with my experience was that it was on xbox live arcade and it had this God awful smoothing filter that you couldn't turn off. I have absolutely no idea why they felt the need to do that? As a retro gamer I'd much rather have the gorgeous pixel art. I'd recommend it on the Switch. It has a ton of options that you can choose from with the filters so you can get that arcade cabinet feel just right.

25.06.2022Adventures of Batman & Robin was one of my childhood games, I was also blown away of how cool the atmosphere and graphics were, and also impressed by it's insane difficulty. Now as an adult, I managed to beat it witthout cheating, and the game is as good as it is hard, I love it
ShowtimeWorthy
25.06.2022Jackal is under appreciated.
Jimmy Stancliff
