Product Description

Platform: Sony PSP

In 1996 an arcade legend was born with the release of Metal Slug: Super Vehicle 001. The military-style themes, and a side-scrolling platform mixed with a wacky sense of humor and hilarious cartoon style, proved extremely popular to a decidedly wide audience. Based on this success, seven more Metal Slug sequels would be developed and released. Ten years later, The Metal Slug game play and popularity are still going strong. To celebrate, the creators of the Metal Slug Anthology stopped at nothing to provide a 2D, side scrolling compilation for the PSP that is perfectly compatible with all the great game play possibilities that the PSP has to offer.

4.0 out of 5 stars Metal Slug - the Run 'n' Gun that's second to none! July 27, 2008
Platform for Display:Sony PSP
Fun: 5.0 out of 5 stars   
The Metal Slug anthology is a great addition to your PSP library. 10 years after these Neo-Geo games had their arcade runs, they're now available to own on one PSP disc!

The gameplay is simplistic - just run and shoot everything and everyone that gets in your way. There's no complex backstory to follow, but with games like this, there's no need: just choose your character and let the shooting begin!

This anthology comes with the following games:

Metal Slug
Metal Slug 2
Metal Slug X
Metal Slug 3
Metal Slug 4
Metal Slug 5
Metal Slug 6

Now the best part of any game is the replay value, right? Well, there's plenty of unlockables in this compilation designed to keep you coming back even after you conquer each of the seven Metal Slug games.

When you complete a Metal Slug game, you get a reward:

Completing a game on easy gives you 3 tokens.
Completing a game on normal gives you 4 tokens.
Completing a game on hard gives you 5 tokens.

With these tokens, you can unlock content to download right to your PSP and transfer to your Playstation 3 or your PC!

Unlockable content includes:

(1) Metal Slug Wallpapers & Desktop Themes
(2) Metal Slug Art Galleries
(3) Music from the Metal Slug series
(4) An interview with the Metal Slug original development team!

+ Pros:

+ 7 games at a very reasonable price.
+ High replay value.
+ Saveable progress within EACH Metal Slug game.
+ Allows selection of infinite continues for novice players.
+ Ad Hoc mode allows dual player games by connecting PSP's wirelessly.

- Cons:

- Load times diminish battery life.

4.0 out of 5 stars Sluggin It Out July 3, 2007
Platform for Display:Sony PSP
Fun: 4.0 out of 5 stars   
I had always enjoyed playing this game in the arcades while I was growing up. I never knew that I could one day have all six games in the palm of my hand. All the games are screen for screen duplicates of their arcade big brothers. I'm very happy with my purchase of this game.

2.0 out of 5 stars Frustrating load times November 29, 2009
Platform for Display:Sony PSP|Verified Purchase
Fun: 4.0 out of 5 stars   
I'm a huge fan of the metal slug series and hadn't until getting this been able to play both 5 and 6. The first thing I noticed is the INCREDIBLY long load times - we're talking at least 60 seconds from XMB to menu screen here. Once in the menu screen, expect another 40+ second load to get into character select for each game. Performance is adequate and playable, but there are lots of framerate drops making the experience much less enjoyable than it should be. Overall, a bunch of great games ruined by terrible porting.

4.0 out of 5 stars RaRaRa Rocket launcher! August 6, 2010
Platform for Display:Sony PSP|Verified Purchase
Fun: 4.0 out of 5 stars   
This is a fun game, the load times are not as bad as people make it out to be. The only complaint I have is when it starts to lag when you have too many objects on the screen. I mean seriously, this is an arcade game that takes about the same computing power to run a basic cellphone. There should be no lag. Other than that the unlockable game content is nice for replay value. ARRRGH!

Platform for Display:Sony PSP
Fun: 5.0 out of 5 stars   
When I first heard about Metal Slug Anthology it was being released for the PS2 and I was a little excited but when I read the reviews for the PSP I was exctatic. This game (or games) was made for the handheld universe. It's pickup and play friendly, you can save anywhere in the game and you can set the game to give you unlimited continues. If you've never played a Metal Slug game just think Contra with its graphics and sound on steriods. The gameplay varries enough from sequel to sequel so you don't get that "didn't I play this level in the last game" feeling. On the downside some of the games (mainly Metal Slug 2) suffer from slowdown problems but these were simply inherited from it's arcade machine big brother (Metal Slug X is really just Metal Slug 2, with the slowdown fixed). The only other issue is load times, something that seems to plauge every PSP title.

4.0 out of 5 stars Fun But Slow At Times June 11, 2009
Platform for Display:Sony PSP
Fun: 5.0 out of 5 stars   
The game was really fun. The loading part is annoying, but I guess thats what you get for a direct port. Plays just like the arcade game (slowness when too many enemies on the screen, etc).

5.0 out of 5 stars Great little game December 2, 2009
Platform for Display:Sony PSP|Verified Purchase
Fun: 5.0 out of 5 stars   
Few games are as easy or fun to pick up and play as Metal Slug. And with six varieties on a single disc, this will easily become one of the most played titles in your collection.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of my favorite PSP games... September 10, 2007
By TenGHz
Platform for Display:Sony PSP
Fun: 5.0 out of 5 stars   
This is a great compilation of the Metal Slug series. This is a great port. I think the PSP version is perfect. This is a great game to pick up and play for a while, and finish later. It's great if you have 5 minutes to kill, or 2 hours. If you like the Metal Slug games at all, you will appreciate this compilation. Most of the games are all the same, but have enough variation to feel different from each other. The only negative I can think of is the loading times. They aren't especially long, but they happen between EVERY scene in the same level. Plus at the character select screen it takes a good 3-4 seconds each time you cursor over a different character... The loading times aren't in critical spots in the gameplay, but they do get long sometimes, and get annoying when they happen every few minutes. I would still recommend this compilation highly to anyone that likes action games, or a fan of the series.
