Metal Slug

DJ_Izumi:
Metal Slug is one of the prettiest sprite games ever, but yeah, it's hard as hell.  One of the reasons I havn't gotten MS3 on XBLA yet but fully intend to get MSXX when it comes out this 'Spring'.
WhereEaglesDare:
MSXX  is that a sequel to MSX?
Mauzy:
Closest I've come to beating a metal slug game was actually only watching a 3 and 7 year old play for two and a half hours on MSX. The older kid went through 76 "credits" on my machine... :laugh2:

Metal Slug XX is the PSP and XBLA port of Metal Slug 7 actually.  Not sure why they felt they had to rename it.

 Metal Slug looks great.. but the gameplay is too simple, so its gets a bit
boring after a while.

 Its not that hard.. compared to a game like Ghouls and Ghosts.  That game is
insanely HARD... even with unlimited credits.

 Metal Slug, should have a Limited Continue system.  At very least, that would
give people incentive to get good... to finally get to see the end.

 Thunderforce II  for Sega Genesis  had a feature like that.  You got like 5 lives,
and like 3 continues (credits).   That amount of men in totality let you get
fairly deep in the game, but not even close to being able to beat it.  You also
had to beat it on the Hard level setting.  If you chose Med, it would end the
game at like level 6.   Its the best shooter Ive ever played.
