Some of the best pixel art ever created.
Great fun.
Fio is best girl.
i love this game
But PLEASE... play it on MAME it's just much better
Terrible audio and constant fps drops even NOTABLE input lag
Don't spend money on this sh*t*y port unless you want to get all the achievements
Its Still Metal Slug
Fio my beloved!💜
not the best port in the world, but a more than decent way to experience my favorite run n gun
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...
“HEAVY MACHINEGUN"

🟩 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.

Kind of feels like a modded version of Metal Slug 2. I'm not sure which version I prefer. Still recommended, but would've been nice if they were in one package.
This game shares many of the same issues found in Metal Slug and Metal Slug 3, particularly with its poorly designed UI and frequent FPS drops. Although the PC version feels like a rushed port and the UI looks cheap, the nostalgic value of the game is still undeniable and keeps me leaning toward a positive review. It’s a bittersweet experience: the nostalgia is there, but the performance of the ported version leaves much to be desired.
Que buen run and gun, metal slug siempre va a tener un lugar en mi corazón.
Super recomendado.
METAL SLUG X
pros:
//fast game with modern day graphics with easy controls that moves from location A to B to C and so on
//good amount of action and special effects
cons:
//a lot of difficult battles/boss battles
//a lot of overpowered enemies
//a lot of enemies have unfair attacks that cannot be evaded
//some difficult platforming
//diagonal shooting doesn't seem to work
//could use more powerups
//too many enemies constantly spawn
//some enemies have too many hit points
//good game
Personal Suggested Purchase Price: $0.99 Or Less During Sale
If I had known that Metal Slug X was the exact same game as MS2, I wouldn't have bought it. I just wish the description of the game on Steam had mentioned that. If you've beat MS2, you don't need this game. Don't get me wrong, MS2/MSX is an awesome game, but I don't think that the couple extra enemies and weapons justify owning the game twice. Oh, well!
Nostalgia the game
purchased a pirated copy 20 years ago, here to pay now
I'd say it's a better version of METAL SLUG 2 in-term of weapon varieties and enemies, but the slow down problem is pretty bad in this one.
If you have the 2nd one get this one too. On the surface it may seem like the same game (Which it is), but with the weapons and added enemies in some areas made it really fun to play through it.

Fun-short-beautiful
But i'm still searching for the slug made of metal
Like if you are a 90's kid
METAL SLUG X – Legendary Game (10/10)
METAL SLUG X is a classic arcade shooter and one of the finest examples of the run-and-gun genre. Since its release, it has captured the hearts of players worldwide and remains a benchmark for dynamic action games.
This game is a true tribute to the retro era: incredible 2D graphics, smooth animation, and superbly designed levels create an immersive atmosphere. Each mission is packed with diverse enemies, interactive objects, and great humor, with iconic bosses leaving a lasting impression.
The soundtrack is particularly noteworthy, perfectly complementing the combat scenes and setting the pace for the entire playthrough. The controls are responsive and intuitive, allowing players to fully dive into the game’s dynamic action.
Pros:
Outstanding 2D graphics and animation
Memorable bosses and engaging levels
Charismatic characters and humor
Thrilling soundtrack
Cons: There are hardly any flaws, making it close to perfect.
METAL SLUG X earns a well-deserved 10 out of 10 – it’s a legendary game that has stood the test of time and continues to entertain players of all ages.
Buying this game in 2024 and lemme tell ya: kinda disappointing.
Slowdown/frame drop/stuttering constantly, music and SFX are out of pitch sometimes, MS1 had the same issue, not sure about MS3 tho.
Bruh I thought I'm still using some kind of old NEOGEO emulator to play this game or something, and I'm pretty sure it's not my problem, I'm currently using a RTX 4060ti desktop and i5-13600KF.
But consider the price is reasonably cheap (you can get the bundle including MS1, X and 3 for 3 dollars on sale), and this franchise is still one of the GOATs (and basically my whole childhood), I think it is still worth buying.
Hoping to buy METAL SLUG 4, 5 and 6 on Steam in the future, and WHERE IS METAL SLUG 8???
Classic
awful port of one of the greatest arcade games of all time
zero excuse for it to be this laggy
imagina una babosa de metal, ahora imagina que es x
