I hope all those sprite artists are still making games and using their skills, they are true artists.

Ugh, playing Metal Slug X and I accidentally grabbed the fire bombs. Do these suck in all the games? I've never been in a situation where they've come in handy.

I think they kill whole groups of mummies.

Metal Slug loving rocks. I have the Anthology for PS2 and it's great. I also have Metal Slug 3 downloaded on basically every platform it's been released on because i love it so much.

I think Metal Slug is solid proof that the universe's decision to add that third dimension was a mistake.

trust me, I'm a cat.

GunForce 2 is also the tits, grab the Irem Arcade Hits from DotEmu, it's now heavily discounted. The visuals are little more "realistic", but plays like a missing link between Metal Slug and Contra. Overall great game. Also the pack hosts In The Hunt, R-Type Leo and Undercover Cops, among other good games.



Oh and forgot about the little curisoty that is Demon Front:

In the Hunt/Gunforce 1 & 2. Never played Gunforce, but I've been looking for a copy of In the Hunt for PS1.

Don't play Gunforce 1. Gunforce 2 is excellent though.

So, is IGS like ex-Nazca dudes?

No, it's jsut a Chinese company that makes arcade games which are awfully similar to other games, of which 70% seem to be about Romance of the Three Kingdom or Journey to the West. Demon Front is just the most notorious among us Westerners, because it looks like they ripped off Metal Slug's animations and for long time was not emulated.
Their biggest success is probably DoDonPachi II Bee Storm, which was even released under Capcom label in Japan, to many arcade rats chagrin.
