not really -- 6 does the whole atomiswave "upscaled sprites on hi res backgrounds" thing that i've never been fond of. plus the characters have different stats, can carry multiple weapons, and have unique melee attacks. i dunno if 6 will be much good, but it seems fairly different at least.
 
good lord, why can't SNKP get with the times and stop using the the outdated MVS. If anything, this could've benefited much from being on the naomi 2, if not the atomiswave.

edit: just notice how drohne mention that this is on the atomiswave. still though, snk really needs to get with the times on the art.

Considering they charged full price for Metal Slug 3 a while back, I shudder to think how many points it'll come to.

True. But it would still be awesome to have arcade games like these available to DL. I hope SF2 is the start of the 'newer' arcade games being ported over to XBLA.
 
4 and 5 left me disappointed. MAME's failure to emulate 5 has left me disappointed, as well.

I think Metal Slug peaked with 3, but I'll hold a torch for this.
 
Looking great as always. Nice to see there is a score multiplier being added among other things.

I love the way the shooting stage looks.

Hopefully it will get a PS2 port as a Neo version is no longer an option anymore.
 
Same stuff everytime.

It was cool with 1, 2, and X. After that with 3, 4, 5 being pretty much the same crap, it just got monotonous. Contra 3 probably had more variety by itself than the whole metal slug franchise.

Personally, SNK has by far surpassed Capcom as the number one milker and rehasher
