I've heard these are hard and I really can't handle hard any more :(

Metal Slug was hard on arcades, but the console versions have unlimitted lives, you can keep on dying as much as needed to beat it XP

Every time you die in a video game and you're 58, it reminds you of your impending mortality. It's NOT FUN!

But you aren't 58 since the seventeen century!

Ok, that sentence has me stumped ... What do you mean?

Metal Slug is awesome - I've played all of the NEO GEO originals and have MS1, 3 and X on Steam - need to get part 2 (I think it was what I was missing).

 

 

If you have X, you may as well skip 2. X is a 'fixed' version of #2, which released in arcades with some atrocious slowdown. The only major difference is it gives away what the final enemy type in the game is pretty early on instead of revealing them in the last level.

there are a lot more differences like Day Times and different weapon locations



Why i left PC gaming

I was just talking to a friend about this. The series really did hit its peak at 3. It kinda just falls down from there.

Cool, but I got kinda bored of the series after about 3. They really milked it.

When I saw the thread title, I was thinking of the 3D PS2 game.

thats because it wasnt made by the same devolopers

While that's true, that's isn't the problem per se. They didn't do much to change the gameplay or even presentation. We see more effort put into indie projects.

My memory of it is vague but I recall the Neo Geo Pocket and GBA titles being pretty fun. They have similar gameplay but feel a little more like console adventure games.

That you aren't that young since a long, long time ago.

We are the mind. The body is just something to carry it around.

Regardless of who made them, the ones after 3 don't hold up, except maybe 6?

I've got X on PS1...great game. Anyone know how good the emulation on the PS2 collection is? I honestly didn't know this anthology even existed.

Oh hey, Metal Slug trophies, I bet some are going to be ridiculously difficult to get.

I had Anthology on both PSP and PS2, and both seemed to run quite well. Then again, I haven't played the PS2 version in years so I may be misremembering, I played the hell out of both versions though!

Ditto. I have the PS2 version and it runs fine. I had no problems with it.
