I'm a wuss who has only played the Metal Slug games through Anthology and therefore plays them with unlimited continues.

So I guess I can't share your frustration.

Can you turn off the unlimited continues?

I've been meaning to buy it but I might refrain if most of the challenge of the game is gone

You do get limited continues, but you get like 20 continues so the challenge is still fairly defeated

Also, alot of things have been messed up- Most notably, the song loops are ****ed up, some areas have the GOOD songs removed (kiss in the dark is gone in the subway on MS2, wtf) and there's no boss flash

Speaking of which, another oh-so-lovely thing about MS4 is the fact that they added in the Bradley as a usable vehicle, but due to shoddy programming it didn't become invincible after taking a hit so it could get blown up extremely fast

I thought it was because the army Marco and Co. work for made their vehicles have that invincibility, and Morden's Army didn't have that technology.

The 3 hits: die could also be because you already shot the **** out of it to commandeer that vehicle in the first place.

This is completely void for MS4

In most MS games, the bosses have a pattern you can figure out

but in MS4

there is no figuring out

It's just shoot shoot shoot shoot die, shoot shoot shoot shoot die, shoot shoot shoot shoot die, use continue, rapidfire heavy machinegun and abuse grenades

Stage designs are plagued with poor enemy placement as well.
