BRANDI · Feb 19, 2002

Is there someone who can translate this?!? :rolleyes:

MS FREAK · Feb 19, 2002

toy_brain · Feb 19, 2002

NOOOO, THEY BE FAKE I TELLS YOU, FAKE, FAKE FAKE!!!!!!!!!!

(ahem), just kidding - thanks for posting them.

garou_d · Feb 19, 2002

IMO this pic aren't fake but show us that creator's of slug 4 are lazzy and founded inspiration on slug 1 (for the last pic).

garou_d · Feb 19, 2002

...or maybe slug 4 is just a compilation of slug 1 2 X & 3 ?!!! who know's ???

xonox · Feb 19, 2002

I am glad they are keeping the original metal slug style. I was afraid they would change the style like it happened from shock troopers 1 to shock troopers 2.

RastaMahata · Feb 19, 2002

Maybe its a metal slug 1 comeback.. Something like "After we took down the place XX years ago, Morden forces have been growing up slowly, and now they are bigger, and better."

Just a thought

And the Rope grunts look great. They should be screaming "Gogogogogogo"

Actually I think you might be right, good post man! Despite my recent "dumb post" run it's nice to see a good thought out post, kudos to you!

Tiptonium · Feb 19, 2002

MS FREAK · Feb 19, 2002

christopher belmondo · Feb 20, 2002

Thanks for the pic's !!!!

But it looks realy like recycle all what was before !!
ok. it's a series....so it's good to feel familar,but look at the truck,it's from ms3,somehow it don't fit there,seems a little wierd,like take a construction kit and do a new slug !!!
all the backrounds seems so...uninspired....hope the gameplay is good,and hope they show us only the bad pictures !!

i'm a pessimist...i know,but i love metal slug,so i worry what they do about ,please be good,be a damm good 2d metal slug,and i kiss my own feet(and thats a dangerous thing !!!)

time will soon show !!!

Damm right !!
hope the gameplay is good !!

Ukyo · Feb 20, 2002

That truck enemy is ripped directly from the first level in Metal Slug 3. Fuck MegaKing.

MS FREAK · Feb 20, 2002

hmm... why they using metal slug 1 landscape???? (pic 2) so bad.... i don't want the same thing and same place happen in MS4.... it's suck!!!... <img src="graemlins/annoyed.gif" border="0" alt="[Annoyed]" /> <img src="graemlins/annoyed.gif" border="0" alt="[Annoyed]" /> <img src="graemlins/annoyed.gif" border="0" alt="[Annoyed]" />

ocsmod · Feb 20, 2002

Well, maybe the art doesn't look very innovative but it has all the original Metal Slug soul. With this graphics, the original funny gameplay and some new ideas we'll have another great Metal Slug.
SWEET! <img src="graemlins/drool2.gif" border="0" alt="[Drool 2]" />

Spike Spiegel · Feb 20, 2002

While my Japanese is pretty bad, I can make out that the red section has nothing to do with Metal Slug4. It's about striking it rich in some "prize machine" with pachinko and so on.

The top part, I can read. Not good with kanji, and it doesn't help that it's too small at times. Just says that it's by playmore and how it's describing that you use weapons and so on. Also says that Trevor, the white haired guy, is a "computer genius", and the girl's name looks like it's "Nadia".

The Q and A is actually an anti-smoking ad, from what I can tell (somthing about not liking tobaco smoke. Sorry, wish I could be of more help.

For the most part, just showin' picutre.

christopher belmondo · Feb 21, 2002

Thanks anyway Spike spiegel,a least you try !!!

...but i have realy the feeling all what we will see in the new slug is....a clone...how do we make money from something..?

"hey it has a name.....this guys out there are happy to get something 2d !
it looks like...so they buy it !!!!"

damm wrong.....we need quality....not a fake money maker !!!

hope i'm wrong...and we will see some new !
all the backrounds are so..normal...man..i have no words to discribe it !
where is the slug that is so fresh...so full of ideas....but i'm to fast ..wait and see !!
soon !!!
