I love how you review games. You're not annoying or whiny and picking the game for some problems. You just go: "Hey, check this out, its awesome" and then something kick-ass happens.
Is the art gallery available on the Metal Slug Anthology? This game collection is also available for download on the Xbox360. The games are emulated really well on the 360. Wish they were on the PS3 PSN as well. Is this port more acurate than the Metal Slug Anthology? Great review Mark!
Lovely game!! my cousin and I had so much fun with the play station version of this game that we even forgott to take meals and sleep. The best game to lose weight.
What's the timer for? All I know is it restarts when you die. Also which Metal Slug games have unlimited continues. The only game I have is 3 on Xbla and after realizing how hard the games were, I was glad 3 for the Xbla had unlimited continues.
@mohamedsanad , that is how carefull SNK team at that time was with their franchises. I think people that work there between 92 and 2000 where real artists. Nowadays wou would never see such detail on any Metal Slug released by SNK Playmore, By the way, is there any meaning on both signs at the first boss batle, arround 2:25 ?
They have Metal Slug 3 on XBLA and SNK will soon be releasing Metal Slug 7 as well. Hopefully the rest will become available on GameRoom, that way we'll have access to the entire anthology.
You should one day do a review of Metal Slug X if you love 2 so much. It's a slight remake of 2, but it has quite a few different tweaks to the orginal version of 2.
@777677467767469 they are but X is a modded version that kills some of the ever present glitches from Metal slug 2 and adds some weapons that were not in 2 originally. I dunno if it is for Neogeo CD though
Hey mark, I know this is an old episode, just wanted to update and say the combat school is on Metal Slug X as well, only downside to X is the very long loading times
A similar thing happened to me lol. I was on holiday in italy and there was an arcade next to the beach. It was the first time i played metal slug and it was so addictive. I spent about £20 and had to go back to my apartment to get more money :-)
I just bought a NeoGeo CDz with 2 controllers & all the hook ups for $240 (£150) & cant wait for it to be delivered.! .this & Last Resort plus the K.O.F series are what I will be playing first. Yes ! finally no more burning discs & running the NEO4All emu on my Dreamcast ,Poor little fella needs a break now & again ! :-)
that'll be awesome. That means they are probably going to bring a Neo Geo emulator for PSP/PS3, but I want to know where the TG16 one they released in Japan.
i wonder how they made all the fantastic animations! i would love to know how they made the game so great looking cuz remember, they're making these games out of code and stuff
Actually the MVS carts are often alot cheaper than even the Neo CD games, they just made a TON more arcade MVS carts then they did for the NCD or AES. Like Metal Slug 2 on the AES goes for $800+ and on the Neo CD it is $100+ but for an MVS cart its only around $50
i grew up with metal slug x and its just like his one i think; you do get the combat school also as i remember; and the metal slug anthology is on psp my cousin has it
I've got this from the Wii Shop Channel. Bought one of those Classic Controllers just for this game. Well... and Ocarina of Time, but still, this game is awesome.
"Metal Slug is everywhere!" That's right. I've got it on my old school Xbox, and I played it with my brother. We were screaming cause of laughing. Awesome game.
@Torqegood no can get to half of level 3 without losing one life, and the china level with one credit. But as soon as mission 5 starts, time to break out the coins!
I don't know, but you can download some of them on the Virtual Console.
I love the Metal Slug series. I think what makes it awesome is the hilarious sense of humor combined with the capacity for mass destruction.
I love how you review games. You're not annoying or whiny and picking the game for some problems. You just go: "Hey, check this out, its awesome" and then something kick-ass happens.
It's been just over a year since I first discovered Classic Game Room, and this is just another great review! I hope this show stays strong!
Sadly this did not age well.
The pixel art is legendary on the slugs
Masterpiece is the right word for the MS series , Contra ain't got nothing on Metal Slug ....
raven beast I'm replying too late but true
The slow down is just old school bullet time.
Every version of Metal Slug 2 has slowdown, don't blame the poor Neo Geo CD version :)
I love every game in this series. They're so good.
Great soundtrack on this one! Very nice!

I always liked the girls in the metal slug games XD
@ InecomCompany Can you make a tutorial how to burn Neo Geo CD for Play station 2 ? please
cool, when did they announce that? any more specifics?
Lovely game!! my cousin and I had so much fun with the play station version of this game that we even forgott to take meals and sleep. The best game to lose weight.

"Flamethrowers warm my heart" Best sentence i have heard in a long time :D
When i was a kid playing Metal Slug in the arcade i legit believed that the slowdowns were a feature because it was hard.
i rock at these games, theyre so fun
love this game have all of them on my psp Metal slug anthology and metal slug double x cant wait for the new ones
my friend has this on his arcade machine and i used to play it alot with him :D
great game
I love metal slug ,
brings old memories back lol :D
3:33 mark is obsessed with flamethrowers...
Metal Slug 4 is one of the best shooters i've ever played at the arcades
I beat Metal Slug 1, X, 3, and 4. :)
They are so much fun. I just can't get enough of their artstyle.
my favorite metal slugs were 2&5. i remember beating 2 at the arcade using only 3 quarters :D
@mohamedsanad , that is how carefull SNK team at that time was with their franchises. I think people that work there between 92 and 2000 where real artists.

i love this game,ive lost millions playing on arcades,good times
I wonder if this is any better then Metal Slug 2 on the Metal Slug Anthology for PS2, Wii and PSP? In other words, more accurate to the original?
RED blood in CD. How can you do that?
Wow, I'm gonna be looking for this one on Wii.
They have Metal Slug 3 on XBLA and SNK will soon be releasing Metal Slug 7 as well. Hopefully the rest will become available on GameRoom, that way we'll have access to the entire anthology.
Metal slug 1 is the best arcade game of all time. period.
The banners with the arabic where the boss battle reads:"I have diarrhea" and "I need medicine".
Hilarious indeed!
You should one day do a review of Metal Slug X if you love 2 so much. It's a slight remake of 2, but it has quite a few different tweaks to the orginal version of 2.
gotta love the hadouken throwing old guys!!!
My brother and I used to spend days on that game on the PS1 :))
i love playng metal slug at the arcade its awsome
thought about buying a neo geo pocket color just to carry this around in my pocket. haven't decided just yet though. great review.
I think I've played one Metal Slug game, always wanted to try the others at the arcades.
Old. Classic. Classic game room!
metal slug school (or academy) is being added to the psp Metal Slug XX game.
@777677467767469 they are but X is a modded version that kills some of the ever present glitches from Metal slug 2 and adds some weapons that were not in 2 originally. I dunno if it is for Neogeo CD though
Love Meal Slug reviews.
i never got pass that level on 3:40
i absolutely love this game, its sooooo much fun. even better with someone else
Hey mark, I know this is an old episode, just wanted to update and say the combat school is on Metal Slug X as well, only downside to X is the very long loading times
Is there a metal slug game on the wii
this is one of the few games i could play my whole life without getting tired (more the X version actually)
The whole series on the AES is going for 25 grand on eBay by the way.

this is my childhood game, i like the train level.
My favorite arcade game...EVER.
METAL SLUG 2 FTW!!!
that'll be awesome. That means they are probably going to bring a Neo Geo emulator for PSP/PS3, but I want to know where the TG16 one they released in Japan.
thx for the review :) now i know why flamethrowers are called flamethrowers! Because they warm our hearts. How poetic of you :D
"Flame-Throwers warm my heart" and my skin,my organs,my brains,and my limbs.
I love how Metal Slug sticks to their formula. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
@JoostRevo yeah you cant do everything on the dreamcast one
I love Metal Slug :D awesome review ^^
i wonder how they made all the fantastic animations! i would love to know how they made the game so great looking cuz remember, they're making these games out of code and stuff
Lots of carnage!! Awesome!!
Metal slug is so awesome. SNK should do a compelation for the PS3 like Sonic's Genesis Collection
All Metal Slug game are RULE!!!
5:17 DAT MUSIC! DAT MUSIC!! is awesome!
Contra is pretty badass;don't forget Gunstar Heroes. That's damned awesome too!
Wait, he reviewed 3 and 4? And there's the 3D PS2 one, and the 1st and 2nd Missions for the Neo Geo Pocket.
Actually the MVS carts are often alot cheaper than even the Neo CD games, they just made a TON more arcade MVS carts then they did for the NCD or AES. Like Metal Slug 2 on the AES goes for $800+ and on the Neo CD it is $100+ but for an MVS cart its only around $50
Metal Slug is a great game...Metal Slug rocks!!!
OK genius, so please tell us how you switch back to the pistol after picking up a bonus weapon.
I agree with with you. Metal Slug really is the king of 2-D side-scrolling shooters...but what about Contra?
when did the old guys learn hadouken
Man, I had no idea the Neo Geo console version had so much slowdown. It's pretty good on the MS Anthology, but Nebula is the best.
gotta love metal slug
is that on the CD or the CDZ?
i grew up with metal slug x and its just like his one i think; you do get the combat school also as i remember; and the metal slug anthology is on psp my cousin has it
This game looks awesome.
I've got this from the Wii Shop Channel. Bought one of those Classic Controllers just for this game.
Well... and Ocarina of Time, but still, this game is awesome.
Contra and Metal Slug are pretty much the best shooters ever
@stoogefest16
Does Contra have "RAWRKET LAWNCHAIR!"?
End of argument.
Dude! I played this on a arcade last year!
What you said at the end there validates what I said.
Looking at the slowdown I don'[t think I would ever get the cd version :(
Dude...on miniclip the game commando looks and sounds exacly like this
i liked the first one where you can slide. all i know is i had 2 off them and one had the abillity to slide shoot
Metal Slug 2... on the Sega Genesis. Let's see that!
I bought the this on the Wii VC last year, awsome games, hard though.
i noticed that too i never got that dude to help me or whatever when i played i wonder how thou
awesome looking game i feel like i missed out lol
You should do a review on the Gamestop exclusive Monster Hunter Tri demo which you can get for free at Gamestop.
awesome music :D
I love how they never changed the graphics on this.
METAL SLUG
X X DOUBLE X
i loved that game!
"Metal Slug is everywhere!" That's right. I've got it on my old school Xbox, and I played it with my brother. We were screaming cause of laughing. Awesome game.
Metal Slug is awesome..period
I'm getting this for dreamcast, it's the neo geo one put on a dreamcast disk
You should really review Sunset Riders on the Snes.
This game is also on ps1 and it has the combat school
@Torqegood no can get to half of level 3 without losing one life, and the china level with one credit. But as soon as mission 5 starts, time to break out the coins!
