You've got an incredible arsenal waiting for you, from destructive pistols&combat vehicles to a stockpile of grenades. Players' enemy-killing capabilities are upped to off more evil-doers in this 10th anniversary edition of an arcade classic. Includes Metal Slug, Metal Slug 2, Metal Slug X, Metal Slug 3, Metal Slug 4 and Metal Slug 5. Amazon.com: One of the most successful, and fun to play side-scrolling arcade games in history, the Metal Slug series is celebrating its 10th year anniversary with the release of the Metal Slug Anthology. With the Metal Slug Anthology, you will enjoy seven arcade-perfect conversions, including the all-new Metal Slug 6.
In 1996 an arcade legend was born with the release of Metal Slug: Super Vehicle 001. The military-style themes, and a side-scrolling platform mixed with a wacky sense of humor and hilarious cartoon style, proved extremely popular to a decidedly wide audience. Based on this success, seven more Metal Slug sequels would be developed and released. Ten years later, The Metal Slug game play and popularity are still going strong. To celebrate, the creators of the Metal Slug Anthology stopped at nothing to provide a 2-D, side-scrolling compilation for the Wii that is perfectly compatible with all the great game play possibilities that the Wii has to offer. Storyline and Gameplay Each included game in the Metal Slug Anthology offers game play and game objectives centered around a futuristic battle between two military groups known as the Regular army, and the Rebellion. In 2026, the Rebellion army launches an assault that pushes the Regular army forces to the brink of destruction. With superior numbers of troops and weapons, the Rebels overwhelmed the Regular army in all aspects. Seeing their disadvantage to carry out direct attacks against the Rebellion, the Regular army then decided to carry out numerous special operations and create certain vehicles to accompany their commandos. As a direct result of this new plan, a newly designed tank code named "Metal Slug" was put into production. Unfortunately, the Rebellion captured many of the newly produced Metal Slug tanks, and starting using them against the Regular army. With their government and military in shambles, the Regular army gathered its scattered troops and launched a desperate counter attack; recapture the stolen vehicles and use them to destroy the opposition. If the vehicles can't be captured, destroy them. Your job is to help the Regular army defeat the Rebellion by using a myriad of different male and female characters, vehicles (including various animals and tanks), and weapons. The Subsequent releases of Metal Slug titles (all included in the Anthology), continued to incorporate different antagonists, with more high-tech means and methods employed to attack the Regular army. Experience all the action and storylines with Metal Slug Anthology. Average Rating:
 Rating: - Don't bother with the arcade versions now.The Metal Slug arcade machines are notorious for being unbelievably hard. It's not uncommon to find yourself feeding well over $10 into a machine just to finish the game. Multiply that by 7 and you might come close to even $100 if you are playing with a partner. Instead, invest your dough in the Metal Slug Anthology. The games are perfect arcade emulations and you get infinite continues. They are still very, very hard and you'll never finish a single level with all of your stats intact, ... Read More Rating: - Fun GameThis is a very nice game. The only thing that I don't really like is how at the end of Metal Slug 6, it says to be continued. Rating: - Metal Slug 4 LifeThis great for any die hard metal slug fan, or someone that wants to ketch up. If contra would have kept on being cool and would have had comedy in it, it would have been metal slug. The controls are GREAT on the Wii. I think there is like 5 diffrent ways to play. The only down fall of this collection is that it doesnt have a lot of unlockables. For the metal slug collection i would expect more. Plus this game has ulimited credits, so play your little hart out. Rating:  - Metal Slug- true to arcade ports, buy it cheapThe Metal Slug disc comes with 7 games, some unlockable content such as pictures and a variety of control options. While the game has a very poor menu system, the actual games run well on the Wii. As for control, you DO NOT have the option to use the classic controller. You can use the wavebird or 6ish options for the wiimote/nunchuck. I've been using just the wiimote and this seems to work fine. Overall, if you like metal slug, you'll like this anthology. Rating:  - Seven Games in One - Side Scrolling BlissMetal Slug Anthology provides Metal Slugs 1, 2, X, 3, 4, 5 and 6 all in one package. There are a few extras as well, including artwork and text interviews. This includes every Metal Slug game made, and includes the brand new, never seen Metal Slug 6. In Metal Slug 6, the enemies of the old games join forces with you against a new, nasty enemy. You also get new characters - the Ikari Warriors Clark and Ralf from the Kingdom Fighter game. There are varying levels of difficulty, ... Read More |
