Title: Metal Slug Anthology for PS2 and PSP - Forever Delayed
Post by: MrAngryFace on January 25, 2007, 09:47:58 PM
What is it now, 7 delays? Every month its pushed back once or twice over lol. Too bad the only other version out there has a completely borked set of control options. Why couldnt they just let the devs NOT use the waggle shit. Even IF there's a gamecube option its pretty DUMB.

I want my psp version so bad :(

MAF, you bought a Wii?

No, which makes me getting the Wii version even more unlikely.

I STAND STRONG! I did play it at a friends house while drunk. It was fun with booze and friends. I imagine alone it is less compelling.

What is the sound of one Wii waggling?

The Wii version isn't that horrible, there are at least two controller schemes that are playable (sideways NES pad styles and nunchuck only).  The only hard thing is waggling enough to throw grenades, it doesn't seem to register right away sometimes.

Throwing Grenades is like 90% of the game, controls shouldnt be conflicting with that shit.

Eel: I dont remember much. I remember being chased by this clawed half naked guy in Far Cry multiplayer then falling off lots of bridges. I did do the bowling and some monkey ball.

That is why you forget about the grenades altogether out of frustration and rely on your guns and knife.

Time to use custom firmware on your PSP and then you can play Metal Slug 1-5 on the Neo-Geo emulator.
