Just to clarify, my issue is really the loading during a stage, as in that stupid character selection issue where every time you press left or right and choose a different character the loading screen pops up for a second or two.I didn't change characters during Metal Slug 3 when I tried it earlier to edit my earlier post with some loading times for you.īut when I was selecting my character before the game started, it did have those minor load times as you moved left or right on the character selection screen. While it's too bad there has to be loading after the initial load when you start up a game, it isn't so much as to be bothersome in the PS2 version I think. Most any classic compilation has load times when selecting games, even 2600 compilations with 2K, 4K, and 8K games. No loading or slowdown during gameplay and no more load screens encountered until it had to load the next stage after finishing stage 1 which took about 5 seconds. Metal Slug 3 had about 7 seconds of loading before the NeoGeo screen showed up, a second load that was a bit over 10 seconds before the title screen loaded, and switching between characters sometimes caused no load and sometimes was a quick 1 second or so load. Metal Slug had about 5 seconds or so of loading before the splash screens, no slowdown, and 2 or 3 seconds of loading after the stage ended while it loaded the next stage. Instead of going out later and buying the Wii version like I did with SNK Arcade Classics 1, the PS2 version has sufficed for me for Metal Slug Anthology.Įdit - Just ran through stage 1 of Metal Slug and stage 1 of Metal Slug 3.
METAL SLUG PS2 LIKE GAMES PSP
I don't really notice the input lag, the games control, look, and sound fine to me, I'm able to use a nice d-pad or arcade stick, and the loading doesn't really negatively affect them for me on the PS2 (And I assume is much less than the PSP port). Not being a huge Neo Geo fan or a huge fan of Metal Slug, the PS2 version has met my needs pretty well as a casual fan of both (Unlike SNK Arcade Classics 1 on the PS2 which disappointed me at every corner, such as when I first loaded up Shock Troopers which was the main reason I wanted it in the first place.was so poorly done that it was obvious even if you had never played it before that it wasn't right). All were done by Terminal Reality, but in SNK Arcade Classics 1 case at least, they did a better job on the Wii by far (I assume the extra power of the Wii helped their shoddy programming to not be so troublesome). I don't recall any discussion about the Wii version being superior, but SNK Arcade Classics 1 was much better done on the Wii so I wouldn't be surprised if it's true. And the only controller option with no motion implimentation was GameCube controller support.

METAL SLUG PS2 LIKE GAMES SERIES
Overall, it'll probably frustrate hardcore players more than anyone else and is fine to experience the series casually. It's not absolutely terrible, but you'll notice it, especially if you've played other versions where it isn't an issue. Hopefully you'll be better at it than I am! The versions in this collection appear to be emulated versions of SNK's AES / MVS arcade machines, but there's more to consider: Metal Slug Anthology is a decent way to play most of the series, but it does have noticeable input lag.
This series in an extremely fun time and everyone aught to check it out. Rumble - A longplay of Metal Slug 3 on the Sony PlayStation 2, part of the Metal Slug Anthology released on PS2 in early 2007.
