    Favorite Metal Slug track?

    I just finished with Metal Slug 3, again. As per usual, love every second of it (well, except for a couple sections of Mission 5). Listening to all the awesome tracks gave me an idea though, how about a thread for music of Metal Slug? I'll begin. Here's a few of my favorites off the top of my head, no order:

    Metal Slug:
    - Mission 1
    - Mission 2

    Metal Slug 2:
    - Second half of Mission 2
    - Mission 3

    Metal Slug 3:
    - Mission 3, first detour
    - Mission 2

    And of course, the boss and ending themes.

    The first 3 games have original synthesized music, and they're great, but no Studio Aqua love? Metal Slug 4 rocks.

    You mean me? I've barely ever played Slug 4, or 5 for that matter. I also haven't played X in quite some time, I forget what the alternate tracks were like.

    Without doubt Assault Theme is THE best Metal Slug track, and for me is the track that defines the series. I was pretty sad that they did not include this in Metal Slug 4 & 5...

    As a one off piece the music that accompanies the end credits to MSX is pretty awesome too (like an extended / remixed Assault Theme).
    Bonuskun - "Please young man. You telling me to shut up on an internet forum is about going to have the same effect of trying to tell Tarma that Metal Slug 4 was the best Neo Game ever.

    Not going to happen."

    Bonuskun - "The Neo Scene changed a lot of us in many ways. Some of it good. Some of it bad. All of it pure drama"

    Argentina'94 - "Gotta admit, that was the best coffee and cigarette I ever enjoyed with someone who wasn't in front of me. We MUST do this again!"

    I wanna ask something. Does PSX or NGCD versions of the first Metal Slug have any arranged musics different from arcade versions?

    In MS3 the Arabian sounding level music.

    Dunno if its the best, but it stands out in my mind.


    Have YOU played a 16 bit machine today?

    Polygons killed gaming.

    Then I proceeded to have a nice day...

    I actually have blue water fangs, kiss in the dark, judgement, and back to the china on my mp3 player(for jogging). The last one came up on Sunday as I was hitting the 11th mile during a half marathon and it pumped me up hardcore. I should totally add "In the Void"! Thanks for the reminder rarehero!!
