    It'd be a little more worthwhile if an arcade-perfect Metal Slug 3 had been included in the collection, but this is still a must-have for those of us who fondly remember our local arcade.

    They are thumb-numbingly difficult, though with infinite continues this challenge is undermined – making completing either game a matter of simple devotion rather than skill.

    This two-disk game retails for a reduced price, which is still a bit steep considering that there is not much content unless you explicitly look for it.

    The Metal Slug package should be purchased by the most hardcore of fans only.

    While I really love this series and these games, it's a shame they're arcade perfect. More specifically, the problem is that there are unlimited continues. This means anyone can beat the game under most any circumstances. If I was blindfolded and forced to wear boxing gloves, I'd still be able to win easily. This is a major oversight considering the type of gamer that is into the metal slug series. If the game was like Metal Slug 3 on xbox and had limited continues, I would probably rate this package a 9/10 - great games.… Expand
