This is good news! I hope Slug 5 does something new/cool with the Slug series. Now hopefully the price of Slug 4 mvs will go down so i can afford it...

It's too bad MS4 was not worth the trouble. CA$H IN baby. Not to say it's a totally shit game, but why bother releasing something when you cant even top its predecesor?? Huh?

Lets hope they get their shit together this time for something truly worth the cash and time.

If you go by that standard, then 99.8% of games shouldn't be released. wink

Sounds good. Is MS5 gonna be on MVS and NGH format, or just MVS?
The schedule is for Homecart format.

I assume the MVS will be out a few months earlier.

That's funny, because it's the same reason I don't buy 99.8% of games released these days.....smartass.

I guess by your standards, you could say I have...good taste...well, better than yours.

Why do I got a bad feeling that Metal Slug 5 will use recycle graphics from Metal slug 3 and 4? eek_2
or maybe using the current USA VS Iraq topic?
METAL SLUG 5 - Saddam Must Die

Not on the Playmore site, anyway. It's just a listing saying it will be released eventually: like SNK VS. Capcom was for the last four months or so.

Yeah, but question is, will you re-hash your slug 4 hatred into slug 5?

That gets far too stale too... :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

I wish it was left to die with some dignity.
The MS series deserves a christian burial.
I am a long time fan btw
Imho #4 was a mistake.

Man, all this negatism...

I love the slug series, can't you guys even hope for a new episode that will actually be worth it ?

If you're so death tired of all these games, just sell your neo or something.

Come on, this could become a good game !!!

Thank you, this is exactly how I feel. For all of those whining about not wanting MS5 or saying that it will suck, just dump your Neo stuff now; you're obviously burnt out on the system and games. MS4 wasn't a bad game at all (despite some rehashed elements, I really enjoyed it), and MS5 has the potential to be a great game if the rumors we've heard are true. Why not give it some time, instead of trashing it before even one screenshot it posted? How about having an open mind about it? Is that too much to ask?

Personally, I am really looking forward to Metal Slug 5. Moreso that any KOF update, or even Matrimelee. Let's wait and see how it looks from dev screenshots AT LEAST before making judgements. Otherwise, its just bitching for the sake of bitching, thats it. oh_no

I could say the same for most of the Xbox, PS2, GBA, Nintendo Gamecube games. What's your point?

You express my sentiments exactly. This is one area where we see eye to eye.

Off the topic, but who's that you have as your avatar pic Shred? He doesn't seem to get enough to eat. Makes Calista Flockhart look obese.
