All of the other paths take much longer (sometimes even twice as long).Ī: I know, but it's worth it when I can kill hundreds alien Marco clones in the end. Q: Are you sure you took the best path choices?Ī: Yes, the best path choices in this game are very obvious. Also, the fourth boss's pinwheel attack becomes nearly impossible to dodge on very hard. I know it sounds lame, but it makes the run look smoother and I'm used to playing this game on hard. If I chose a higher difficulty I would end up using more grenades on normal enemies and less on bosses, making the run longer. Q: Speaking of hard, why didn't you play Metal Slug 3 on the highest difficulty?Ī: For some reason, hard difficulty lets you kill most of the enemies without being delayed for a long period of time. If you want to be even more confused, the hardest difficulty in the console versions of metal slug games isn't even the hardest difficulty in the arcade version (level 6, highest is 8), whee! Very hard in Metal Slug 3 is the equivalent hard in Metal Slug 4 and 5. Therefore, hard in Metal Slug 3 is the equivalent of arcade/mvs in Metal Slug 4 and 5 (and Neo Geo Metal Slug 3). In an effort to confuse everyone, SNK Playmore decided renaming the difficulties was a good idea for Metal Slug 3. Q: Wait, hard isn't the highest difficulty in Metal Slug 3? Then why did you claim that hard was the highest difficulty in Metal Slug 4 and 5?Ī: That's because hard is the highest difficulty in Metal Slug 4 and 5. I don't think it would save more than a couple of seconds anyways. Q: When you lost all your ammo from a weapon how did you fire instantaneously?Ī: Crouching cancels the recovery of switching back to the pistol.Ī: The arcade version of Metal Slug 3 doesn't have vulcan fix, and being a purist I didn't use vulcan fix in my run. Q: Why are you crouching while firing throughout the game?Ī: Firing while crouching allows you to fire faster than simply standing and shooting.
A Playstation 2 + DVD recorder was used to record the run, thanks go to Nate for capturing. Played at the default arcade difficulty (hard, which is not the highest difficulty) Timing note: Load times aren't counted in Metal Slug Anthology runs toĭifficulty note: Normal mode in Metal Slug 3 for PS2/Xbox isn't allowed because it lies between easy and normal in Metal Slug Anthology.īest time, hard mode: 0:33:19 by Mike Uyama on.
Like the previous three games, the plot involves Morden doing something evil, but anyone who has played 2 or X knows the aliens are the true villains.įurthermore, 99% of people who play Metal Slug games don't care about the plot and care more about shooting stuff, dying a ridiculous amount of times, and swearing at this game
Metal slug 3 chd series#
Introducing multiple paths, interesting new slugs (an elephant that can breath fire, anyone?),Īnd more absurd enemies (zombies and mutant plants), Metal Slug 3 brought new additions to the Metal Slug series while still emphasizing destructive shooting coupled with explosions. Released in June 2000 Neo-Geo, Metal Slug 3 is considered the best and hardest Metal Slug by most fans.
