Hi everybody

About a week ago I finally got Metal Slug 3 for my MVS cabinet.

I haven´t had much time to play the game but...

Last night one of my friends came by, and we decided to complete the game.

THIS GAME IS ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE !!!

I know that a lot of you know this already - but I have seen the light.

Thank you SNK - now I am a true believer !!!

What I love about the game is the sheer variety of opponents you face. One moment, you're battling submarines, the next, an onslaught of UFOs! Also, it's a visually stunning game, easily comprising some of the best 2D hand-drawn art in a game ever. I'm right with you there. Metal Slug 3 is a true gaming masterpiece!!!

oooooooow yeh, Metal Slug 3 is probably my favourite Neo game ever. It is utterly stunning on the eye and to play, the different routes and enemies make this the most playable slug game to date.

I know, this game is so damn GOOD, it's is unbelievable. A work of art, worth it's weight in gold.

They should build a shrine to it...

MS3 is just an incredible game, I liked the MSX style a little more, though. Got to have both

The last level is amazing. It starts out one way then takes a sharp turn into a rewarding and great gameplay exprence.

This Game should be ported to EVERY console.

oh, absolutely, that level was a knock-out for me. When I first played MS3 and got to the last level (finally) I thought this stage would be boring because it was almost like the end of MS1, then I beat "Morden" and the slevel unfolded almost into a cinematic plot! I mean, you go into the mothership! It's awesome!

I know, it was more sarcastic than anything else. I would get 3 but don't have the money for the kit :(

You could buy a cab and the mvs cart for that sort of money, seriously worth considering if you have the space, sorry for getting off topic.

Already got the cab ttooddddyy ;) . I just need the game itself. I mention the Neo Store because they have a full kit mint and I trust them. I've seen Slug 3 MVS Full Kit on EBay for around the same price. So I said to myself, I'll go with X ;) .

Sorry I was talking about a scabby arcade torn loose cart, you can get them for around $100 nowadays.

MS3 has gotta be my favorite as well, it's a refreshingly different spin on the original game we all love.
