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 :buttrock:

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).

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.

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!!

The ones in MSA are horrible.

Holy necrobump!!.

Just to be on-topic, I think my favorite is MS4, first mission. Yep, MS4. Close second is MS3 2nd mission. MS5 has good music too, but no tune stands specially for me.

Metal Slug 2 1st level. One year after a convention me and my friends cranked it up in a new astro coty cab with a loud stereo speaker when everyone was packing up the games at the end of the show. I lt was pretty epic but we pissed off the old pinball guys :)
Gotta love the unibios jukebox!
