Immaculate game
Couldn't ask for more. 6 games in one, lots of challenge, not repetitive, multiplayer.

One of the best games for PSP.

A Great Game
Metal Slug Anthology is a perfect game for the PSP. There are 6 ports of the metal slug side-scrolling shooter arcade games in this package (Metal Slug 2 and X are the same thing with only slight differences. If you count X there are 7 games). Every game in this collection is fun and fast paced. The levels and games are of decent sizes making it perfect for the portable system. I have had this game for over a year and I still continue to play it over and over.

Metal Slug - the Run 'n' Gun that's second to none!
The Metal Slug anthology is a great addition to your PSP library. 10 years after these Neo-Geo games had their arcade runs, they're now available to own on one PSP disc!

The gameplay is simplistic - just run and shoot everything and everyone that gets in your way. There's no complex backstory to follow, but with games like this, there's no need: just choose your character and let the shooting begin!

This anthology comes with the following games:

Metal Slug
Metal Slug 2
Metal Slug X
Metal Slug 3
Metal Slug 4
Metal Slug 5
Metal Slug 6

Now the best part of any game is the replay value, right? Well, there's plenty of unlockables in this compilation designed to keep you coming back even after you conquer each of the seven Metal Slug games.

When you complete a Metal Slug game, you get a reward:

Completing a game on easy gives you 3 tokens.
Completing a game on normal gives you 4 tokens.
Completing a game on hard gives you 5 tokens.

With these tokens, you can unlock content to download right to your PSP and transfer to your Playstation 3 or your PC!

Unlockable content includes:

(1) Metal Slug Wallpapers & Desktop Themes
(2) Metal Slug Art Galleries
(3) Music from the Metal Slug series
(4) An interview with the Metal Slug original development team!

+ Pros:

+ 7 games at a very reasonable price.
+ High replay value.
+ Saveable progress within EACH Metal Slug game.
+ Allows selection of infinite continues for novice players.
+ Ad Hoc mode allows dual player games by connecting PSP's wirelessly.

- Cons:

- Load times diminish battery life.
- Unable to start another game at the "Game Over" screen.
- Lag times when too many characters are on-screen.

The Metal Slug anthology is perfect for those business trips or road trips - you deserve some good old-fashioned fun on your PSP.

Enjoy!
