If you love these run and gun games and wish there was more you can also check out:ĭemon Front: Obviously inspired by MS, same art and animation style, only thing is no vehicles you get a pet that can attack or transform into a shield. Metal Slug 2, Metal Slug X, Metal Slug 3, Metal Slug 4, Metal Slug 5 and for. Most will say MS 1 - 3 are the best 4,5, are kind of off (not bad but removing classic parts or charecters) MS 6 is return to form, it has slightly different art style I guess the background are of higher resolution (better hardware) and MS 7 the only one not to have an arcade release is also good. There are only 2 metal slug games that were ever originally made for console that is Metal Slug 7 (aka XX) where the best for us pc gamers to play is via psp emulator PPSSPP imo and the infamous Metal Slug 3D which you can find on ps2 emulator pcsx2. For MS6 Atomiswave via Demul, do not get a Mame version of MS6 it is not real, either it is a Bootleg version of 3, or something else, Neo Geo did not and could not run MS 6 only atomiswave or your playing a ported version of an emulated version on some console. Outside of that, best to simply emulate as close to source as possible, this means for MS1-5 Neo Geo MVS AES via MAME. Being the last Metal Slug in the series that SNK was working on until its bankruptcy, it was given a lot of features, enhancements and improvements.

IMO current the best option is emulation until some company can make a product that offers those above things, either individual games or preferable as anthology pack. Metal Slug 3 ( 3- Metaru Suraggu Sur) is a run and gun video game for the Neo-Geo console/arcade platform created by SNK that was released in 2000 and is the sequel to Metal Slug 2.

People want a steam release proper, so it can have option for multiplayer, and also anthology edition has Combat missions and extras including art work.
