The game is as fun as i remember it, impossibly hard to beat without continues but so much fun 
One note though, there is no way to adjust audio in the game...

The whole game (including the music) does seem to be running a bit faster than it should. I get the annoying bug/glitch where it doesn't go fullscreen and shows my taskbar the whole time. I hope they fix that soonish.
Also, there's a remarkable lack of options in general.
This game requires 8GB DDR5, a GTX580 ain't gonna cut it!
Seriously though, try to fiddle with V-Sync. Maybe try to enable Adaptable-Vsync on the Nvidia panel - this sometimes resolves stuttering issues!
Thanks, ill try that

No stuttering for me, but the game generally feels a little sped up. Hoping they get around to fixing the framerate issues soon enough (not talking about the slowdowns), because I can't unhear the faster soundtrack.
Disabling V-sync and messing around with active processors did nothing for me in attempts to bring it back to its original speed, by the way.
Why do you still have Windows XP?
A little funny reading stuff like this when any old clunker of a computer has been able to run the game perfectly via emulator for years.

While the stuttering is there and has no right to be....
I'm still enjoying the ever-loving hell out of this game.

mother of godOh man I used to be able to 1cc this game back in the day. I will probably buy this
So, first time playing Metal Slug 3, so no nostalgia here, and really it holds up to the words I've heard about it, what a great game. Wish there wasn't any slow downs though (ones that shouldn't be in that is)
Trying to get as far I can with 1cc, and managed to beat the first two levels doing the normal path.
What are your guys feeling on auto-fire? It really hurts my hand to play without it on, especially considering I'm using a 360 controller. But maybe it is too easy?

There's auto-fire? I've been jamming that fucking A button for days.
Yep, in the controller/key settings :lol

Patch that came out today fixed the sped up audio for me. Can't confirm whether they did other sound-related tweaks, since the patch notes are rather blunt.
