Some of the best pixel art ever created.
Gameplay is solid.
Fio is best girl.
good deal for 1euro
I want to relive those moments. But not like this.
Pros, Cons, Issues, Analysis and Verdict further down.
Some were getting ready to dive into the pool. Others were playing cards under the canopy of secular oak trees. There was always someone ordering fried fish, and you could catch its aroma wafting from the little restaurant on the side. But people like me stayed glued to the screens under the veranda, in a modest open-air arcade room. Amid the innocent laughter and the rhythmic clatter of foosball, there was the constant barrage of gunfire, punctuated by a booming voice that simply declared...

🟩 Pros
- The undisputed champion of run 'n' gun titles, the game that put its signature on Contra's tombstone, has finally landed on Steam. Relive the explosive frenzy you cherished back in the day, or, if you're new, experience the arcade revolution right at your fingertips.
- Stunning, near-unrivaled pixel art, crafted with meticulous attention to detail and animation. Back when colors popped and developers weren't afraid of using saturation, we had these little games offering big experiences, ones that did the best job at transporting players inside their vibrant and soulful worlds.
- The music, like the graphics and gameplay, truly benefitted from the limitations of the era. When creative minds are faced with boundaries, they often work hard to push those limits and still deliver something extraordinary. With only a handful of audio channels and single-digit bits at their disposal, composers managed to create unforgettable tracks nonetheless. That's because, back then, there were no quick fixes or shortcuts. You had to know your craft and there was no way around that. That was the case and it shows on Metal Slug's OST, which will forever be remembered for being packed with bangers.
- New features like Steam Achievements, Trading Cards, Online/Offline Multiplayer, Leaderboards, all add replayability, breathing fresh life into a classic experience.

🟥 Cons
[*] This port however, is simply atrocious. It’s as if someone took the backside of a macaque, slammed it onto a keyboard, and there you have it: an official port that is worse than any unofficial one. Lag spikes plague the game at any resolution, and severe input delay ruins the flow of gameplay. Now; I'm not the type of guy who throws a tantrum whenever his beloved 120 FPS, which he can't even perceive, takes a nosedive and verges on the double digit. I'm not that obsessed that, in my subconscious mind, I count the fractions of a second between me pushing a button, and a bunch of pixels on the screen changing color. However, it is precisely because I'm not that kind of guy that I can feel something really wrong with this sad excuse at emulation; something so poorly thought and executed, that even I am left aghast with it. And that's the sole, yet gigantic reason why I cannot recommend a staple of my childhood.

- Severe lag spikes and input lag experienced by many players, me included.
- Music isn't as crispy as I remember it; probably one of the many victims of poor emulation.
- The leaderboard is infested with cheaters, so maybe compete against your friends, not globally.
[/td]
[td]
- Playing at 800x600 resolution, 4:3 aspect ratio, may fix some of the lag (and for the love of god, disable the default video filter while you're at it. That thing will smear the pixels and turn everything into a smudge of vomit).
- If that doesn't work, you could try right-clicking the game in your library, select "browse local files", then right-click the .exe. Go into properties, then the compatibility tab. Here, "change high DPI settings". Put a checkmark on "override high DPI scaling behavior".

💭 Final Considerations
The trilogy bundle, on discount, will cost roughly three bucks. Considering that, back in the day, it would be the equivalent of three to six "continues" (each continue consisting of three lives), it is still worth considering. However, you will most likely need to turn a blind eye to Dotemu's glaring incompetence; which is unfortunate, because I usually admire this studio.
📝Verdict
You want virtually the same accuracy as it was back then, meaning almost identical feeling of gameplay, graphics, and music? Go with MAME. Do you want to play with your friends or challenge yourself with achievements? By all means, buy this. You may be one of the lucky few who can't see the problem with this eyesore.

Heavy machine gun!
This game would have cost my wife and I 80 arcade tokens to finish it.
at arcade we called it dwarf rambo.
Raw Cat Lunch Chair
Not the greatest port and some achievements seem bugged, but I can't say no to Metal Slug. Really wish the series would be done justice for PC.
Alternate paths and secrets give it some nice replayability. The last mission makes me want to die in real life.
Heavy machine gun
this port doesn't even work properly on modern machines, and that includes weird slowdowns and keyboard input simply not working properly
Again, METAL SLUG 3 is a fun game. I gave it a positive review because of the game itself, not because of how it was ported to the Steam version. Please keep in mind that the game was poorly ported. The UI looks cheap, and the FPS keeps dropping when there is too much explosion. The final mission is crazy hard and much harder when the performance of the game is not stable.
Metal Slug 3 might be my least favorite game out of the first trilogy, notably because the difficulty is on an even higher level, and the last mission drags on forever. Other than that, I still recommend MS3 as it is faithful to the series and very fun to play.
Fun sidescroller bullet hell, with a lot of charm.

I like Bananas
Awesome!
The 3rd installment just go all in with the aliens and weird monster stuffs and it's really fun. Pretty challenging in some areas, but still METAL SLUG is a METAL SLUG fun and challenging are always welcome here.

absolute cinema
Very nostalgic!
"Metal Slug 3" is a true gem among action games! The graphics are simply outstanding—colorful, detailed, and full of life, making each level a delight for the eyes. Defeating the screaming enemies is pure joy for me; the animations are so satisfying that you just can’t tear yourself away! The only downside is the relatively short gameplay—I completed the game on the highest difficulty level in just 3.5 hours. Still, every moment spent in this game was a fantastic experience that I will definitely remember. Highly recommended!
Fio my beloved
Still waiting for Metal Slug 4, 5 and 6 PC port, even better if it is the official PC version tbh. Just don't do the port by yourself SNK, that MSXX PC Port was nightmare
You know you bought this game for the snails.
Classic
A very stylish game with great music, art and visuals. Sadly, being an arcade game, it was designed to have you spend as much money as possible; and it shows. You will die a lot, unless you invest a lot of time and effort into memorising the levels. But still, it's a unique experience that's well worth your money.
action, fun, playability. PURE METAL SLUG - APPROVED
wow
This is your standard Metal Slug title with bloodcurdling projectile patterns and infinite continues that spare you dozens of dollars in quarters. Of course, arcade games are notorious for their often unpredictable difficulty, but even video games like Contra can be easily adapted during the first playthrough rather than afterward. That is to say, Metal Slug is one of those types of video games where you are required to know every enemy and their attack pattern prior to their appearance on screen lest you lose your power-ups and score multipliers. In the end, these sorts of products are more backbreaking than entertaining but at least the pixelated visuals are still astounding.
