I like the first one best. No alien stuff, no slow zombie/mummy levels.

Someone understands me <3

:lol

From best to worst:

3
X
1
2
6
5
4

If mummies give you trouble in MS2, you need to learn how to duck.

X and 3 are generally considered the best. If you're a collector, 1 is considered the holy grail, as the AES cart is insanely expensive. 4 is considered the worst, while 5 and 6 are marked improvements.

 

[Roarer]

Typically 3 or X. 3 is my favorite, but I think only because I developed Stockholm Syndrome from beating it on one credit.

So you were, uh, kidnapped by the game? And you still felt sympathies for it?

 

[Alpha_eX]

I really didn't enjoy 6, the new weapon system was good and I liked the melee attacks but it just wasn't fun, I really wanted to stop playing on that digger level.

I like them in this order,

1, X/2, 3, 5, 6, 4

Did they take out that cool slide feature from 6? That was great for getting out the way of bullets in a tight situation.

6 was not bad, but I felt that if you weren't playing as Clark or Ralf, you were missing out on a lot of the game.

Nah, beat it as Eri, and her new grenade throwing prowess makes a big difference.

What was that? I played as the guy that could revive himself and had that awesome punch in the air explosion melee attack.

 

[Gee]

I would recommend MS3.

 

[drohne]

ralf initially seems really strong, but half ammo is a big handicap, and makes certain sections less fun to play. i haven't spent much time with clark -- he seems like a technical, scoring-focused character, and i'm mainly playing for survival. i started off with marco, but have lately switched over to tarma -- his extra slug damage helps out on the level 3 boss, and he hasn't got any pronounced weaknesses.

 

[Hitokage]

What was that?

She can throw grenades the length of the screen and in all directions, and starts with 20 instead of 10.

BTW, Fio always starts a life with the Heavy Machine gun, and gets more ammo.

 

[NekoFever]

The first three are no brainers, and X goes ahead of standard 2 for equally obvious reasons. I'd have to say X was my favourite overall, just because I thought it was a better game than the first and as good as 3 was, I didn't really go for the more outlandish scenarios. Still great fun to play though, and I admire just how mental they went with some of the design.

What about 5, guys? That one was so innovative and well-designed!!

Spoiler

Oh God, I think I just vomited a little bit

 

[KingJ2002]

3 then X

 

[Bearillusion]

Completed MS3 last night and I have to say the last level is just crazy. Was it just me or is the last level as long as the previous 4 combined?

 

[Bearillusion]

Does anyone know if SNK will ignore XBLA now that are going to put their titles on VC?
