moku said:Question for fans of this game(s). I am a huge fan of Contra series(1,2,3 Aliens wars ooh lala)
I have never played these games. Are they great in this sense like Contra(Or rocket Knight for that matter)Bionic commando, Strider, e.t.c.? Or do they play like cheap rip-pffs?
I would love, to love these games, and will buy as soon as they are available if they are worth it.
Explain more. I trust you know my feelings on the awesomeness of contra seeing your avatar.DjangoReinhardt said:Good god, no. It's a different flavor of run and gun, arguably better than Contra.
you should look into playing them on an emulator (mame). otherwise there are a bunch of videos on youtube. 1, 2 (x), and 3 are all considered good. 4, 5, and 6 i have no clue on, but i believe the general sentiment towards 4 and 5 were meh.moku said:Explain more.

Whats different? What possibly makes them better in your eyes? I know next to nothing about these games.
Thanks for the link/impressions.japtor said:you should look into playing them on an emulator (mame). otherwise there are a bunch of videos on youtube. 1, 2 (x), and 3 are all considered good. 4, 5, and 6 i have no clue on, but i believe the general sentiment towards 4 and 5 were meh.
i feel theyre better than the contras as well, but the last one i played was alien wars. im not sure what exactly i like about them better thats all that identifiable, just a general improvement in a lot of aspects. the control feels better, the animation is great, lots of crap to shoot, etc.
moku said:HOLY ****ING SHIT. If these games are co-op me and my brother will plow through all 6 games together.
Are these games tough? Man I have hungered for more 2-d awesomeness like this for so long.
Come on people! Those who have played these games give with detailed impressions!
They look ****ing tits!
Nope, and its like a ****ing christmas from heaven for me. I adore 2-d blast-a-thons, and it would seem that I just now get to experience what everyone here is calling some of the best, better then the king Contra, 2-d gunslingers.Calidor said:Are you serious? you never played Metal Slug before?
well, the Metal Slug series are usually pretty ****ing hard IMO.. it's also cooperative
my impressions on the series are like this: 1,2 and X: teh awesome, 3: ok, 4: crap, 5: meh

12? 13? That is as high as I am prepared to guess. I can't wait until you discover Gunstar Heroes and we get to hear analogies drawn to games like Donkey Kong Country.moku said:Nope, and its like a ****ing christmas from heaven for me.

This makes my Metal Slug hard.

BOOYA! This will be mine! MWHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

did any of the ports actually have infinite lives, or did you mean continues? (which has an easy workaround...dont continue)PS: SNK better stop releasing Metal Slug games with infinite lives, that makes the games no fun. Bring it on like Metal Slug one for PS, that game had a limited amount of lives.
