I'd gladly kill for some online Rampart...that game needs an online multi redux.
...even Rampage, I'd love to see on XBLA.

Too late MS, I was given the better value anthology pack for the PSP and bought the Wii version sealed for £13.
Ho hum.

Too bad the Wii version sucks large Alien tentacles. Seriously, if it's still sealed, you have no idea how horrid the controls are.

OMG! James hates a 360 game and loves the Wii version?! Someone alert the media! Let's take advantage of this slow news day...

Keep in mind this version has 2 player co-op over Live. That alone is the reason why I'm buying this version.

No I just hate when someone charges me too much for something that costs much less in anthology/collection form.
With a GC controller I find the controls perfect *shrugs*, but the PSP is my version.
Baby Sea Tuna; I also have a thing against Sonic on the VC since it's much cheaper to buy the Mega Collection on the GC. So stop being a twat by thinking you know people, thanks.

"bought the Wii version sealed for £13"
So... you're bragging you bought a horrible version of the game for £13 when the Xbox Live Arcade version is £6.80, has online co-op, and you can actually demo before you play?
What kind of demented moron are you? Oh, a blind fanboy. (rolling eyes)

I love how the "upgraded HD visuals" for most of the XBLA reissues (i.e. Contra, Smash TV, Time Pilot, this) basically just translates into "running the entire game through the pallette knife filter in Photoshop to take out the jaggies."
That said, this was probably my favorite Metal Slug so I'm sure I'll be picking this up come Wednesday.

SuperEagle... 2xSaI... Super2xSaI... I never really understood the difference between those filters... All I knew is I hated them.

"updated HD visuals?" Looks just like that Kawaks NG emulator with the SuperSai filter turned on...except my PC runs it at an even higher rez... :P

Sounds like awesome fun esp the co-op, if I had a 360 I'd get it.

And thank god I got a 4000 point card for Xmas... Cause I'm all over this and Rez HD when it eventually comes out.
But I have to admit, my favorite Metal Slug was Metal Slug X. It reminds me of art school - they had a Neo-Geo in the cafeteria, and I'd play MSX until my next class.

I wish they would start making these games have 16:9 support. I'd be much more inclined to buy if my Arcade games that supposedly have "enhanced HD visuals" would actually take up my entire screen.

The reason is not because they can't fill up the space with graphics. The reason is that the AI and gameplay has to be true to the original.

I am not sure why someone wouldn;t just spend $5 more and get all of the Metal Slug games in the Anthology...
I have the PS2 version and enjoy it.

Microsoft has totally f-ed up this weekend. Still now on day 3 sign on or keep a connection to live. Great job f-heads.
Went on the live forums and the moderators are threatening to temp bann members for continuing to post new threads about it and are also asking not to call support about it since they already know.
