$299.00. Do I hear a counter bid?

evil wasabi · Nov 28, 2003

It's been for sale at the Neo Store for that price for a couple of days... And I was expecting a REAL price war from this title. ¬_¬

Amix · Nov 28, 2003

I would pick it up now, but KOF2K3 has sparked my interest, so I'm going to wait a little longer.

If wasn't the translation issue, we would have seem a 'email about the price' stuff, like MS5.

As soon they start shipping, it may happen.

Its still 299.00 for SS5 MVS at the Neo Store....

I may have to think twice about buying MVS Metal Slug 5.....its probably going to drop like crazy???

Anyone know the current MS5 price? I asked shawn the other day and he said it was $365 or close to that anyways.

Robert there is no reason not to pick this one up. The price ill nt go much lower any tuime soon the AES release is 3 motnhs away and it will sell for $325, so it;s safe to pick it up as the game is great. SSV on the other hand... Well you see it;s still around $300 and it isn't even a great game (compared to MS5)...

very tempting!

RabbitTroop · Nov 28, 2003

I don't know... MS5 looks alright, but it is the same old slug. Slidding is cool, but hardly a worthy upgrade... Perhaps I am just too much a fan of 1, but 5 doesn't look to offer much more than 3. I'd love to play it sometime, but this one is a $50 purchase for me... I'll just grab a cheap loose cart later on off of ebay or Cosmicco.

-Nick

Edit: errr... wrong thread, anyway... yeah $205 for SS5, sounds great... I can't wait to see if I have any money left after Christmas

Might have to grab it late December early January... Have to admit, I won't have much time to play it between now and then anyway... Anyone want to guess what it will cost in three-four weeks? I am guessing <$150

SS5 is now around $200 as cth stated...
And did you play it before saying it's not a great game ? :spock:

I don't even know how you can compare a fighting game to a platformer/shooter anyway...

This is the stuff the special people get to talk about in the Mature Forum.

This game kicks ass!!!

I'm not talking about picking up SSV as I have played and definately know it's not worth $300 (which it was at the time I posted this). Not really a bad game, just one to wait for. Metal slug 5 is what I said NOT to wait for...

MS5 Owns SS5

Would you have a review of MS5 for us yet?

I have had this happen to me as well... When I have something no one else does, it seems amazing... Though, it is really just me covering up for the fact that I spent a lot of money to be the first out the gate. Slug is slug... bad replay value and all for me... I'd much rather have SS5 than MS5 (if I even pick it up at all)... but, to each their own... that's why there are so many games out there. Honestly though, I own 1, X, and 3... and that is all the slug I need. I haven't seen anything in the 5 videos that got me excited :emb:

Ahh well, we should see a review from Spike soon atleast to get someones opinion on the game, if nothing else.

evil wasabi · Nov 30, 2003

I agree... Slugs are nice and all, but don't "last" long... I personally just play them back once in a while after I've finished them.

And comparing MS5 to SS5 is just as stupid as comparing Super Mario Land to Tetris... Or something.

Electroman · Nov 30, 2003

Nruva-

Oh you will cave in and buy MS5 soon enough. You will keep staring at that hole in your collection known as "MS5", and need to fill it

Stifu-
I'm naturally a shoot'em up fan actually, so the MS games are fun as all hell to me. I actually prefer playing MS alone as I can take my time, and not confused by my 2P buddy.

But if we are talking new releases here, I totally understand the replayabilty of a good fighter, as we all know fighters shine in 2P, and have almost unlimited replayability; something that MS cannot do. This is where SS5 will shine
