They are totally right about Mexico being SNK land, imagine being a kid in ar third world country and the only fun you can have is a trompo and the arcades en la tiendita de la esquina, thank you guys for remembering my childhood. btw the name of the guy in the last mission is Allen O'Neil
+El Mooo *In light of the recent extraterrestrial incursion, this Council of Nations has convened to approve the activation of the Metal Slug Project.*
well, I hope you HAVENT recorded the rest of the series but shoot button + jump button equals the suicide slug attack. you were more aware of the fact in MS2, but seems like you guys are starting on a clean slate again.
remember one of your old videos of friday night fisticuffs??? CVS2 was the game... you guys said that when rugal and guile fight the intro was inspired on the guile handcuffs or something like that... play kof 94 reach rugal and see his statues.... If you dont he has a statue of guile, fei long and akuma in the back that's why he does that intro with guile i hope you guys see this comment... Greeting From Mexico!
For anyone wondering, the two "Item Girls" are named Rumi and Madoka Aikawa, the P.O.W. who can pull off Hadoukens is named Hyakutaro Ichimonji, and the huge, muscle-bound boss with the machine gun is Allen O'Neil.
+Rochasaurus Rex I mean, one of their ministers *is* a turban wearing Indian immigrant, but the more northern people probably emphasise the "white" in Great White North.
+Vincenzo Paollo Grieco But Broforce is an excellent game I've played through it many times. It's not a perfect game of course. But the characters all feel different and have a learning curve. The levels allow for many different strategies and routes and are fully destructible. I enjoy it very much. I think it's a very good game. I had a lot of fun with it.
cd2220 i did not say it was bad, just made a joke about Liam saying how the theme or the "joke" of the game was old to him and since Matt really like the game and have a abusive boss/coworker realationship(joke also) with him i though that Matt was going to punish him for saying it (joke also)
they machine gun guy Allen O'Neil and the only thing that keeps Allen alive besides his muscles and guts is his devotion and will to return home to his wife and son after a hard day of fighting.
+Swagbito Uchiha Metal Gear Wolf Slug would have enabled Skullface's plan to succeed...because that shitbag Huey wouldn't have been involved in making it
+Michael “Tarkenfire” Mancuso Matt and Liam are also great together, not having two people take the piss out of each other at every turn is pretty refreshing sometimes.
Holy shit I used to play this game a bunch when I was a kid and didn't even realize what it was until now. It was in one of those weird unmarked/gutted and refitted cabinets that had had like, 4 different games in it before this one.
I've never gotten very deep into the Metal Slug series at all, but I must say, I really do like the little nuances in the animations for even some of the most insignificant characters. It gives them a lot of personality.
How dare Liam dismiss Broforce, that game is amazing and it's not because of memes but the actual gameplay. 4 player Broforce with the current retail build would be great for this channel.
Mexico does love its SNK games. I remember running down to a mom and pop shop where they either always had KoF or Metal Slug. Very few people there could beat the games on a single coin. It was amazing to watch
You guys should do a "Mission all Over" tally at the end of the Metal Slug series where you list how many quarters you guys burned on each game and see who did the best Love the series BTW
These guys go on and on and on and on about how their busy scheduling interferes with things, but I still find it really hard to believe they couldn't figure out a way to play these 45-minute games closer to each other so they don't get rusty in between each.
Man, I loved Warhawk. My favorite thing to do in it was to get a dropship and hook a tank onto it. Then get someone into the tank as well as six other people into the dropship, go where all the enemies were, and drop off the tank while activating siege mode where the giant guns pop out from the sides and the missile pods pop out from the top of the dropship, and have everyone in the ship go nuts. That was one of the most satisfying things to do in that game.
The first time i played a Metal Slug game was on my lcd fliptop phone in 2007, and i still think the sprite art(?) is beautiful. I don't think you have to have played this in the arcades as a kid to appreciate the beauty in it.
X is pretty much an enhanced, harder MS2. The biggest difference level wise is the final boss in mission 1. In MS2 you fight the same Aircraft you encounter as a mid boss during mission 3, except it doesn't drop tanks at you due to difficulty differences between both versions. Other minor differences include enemy placement, additional boss attacks (IE: the mission 2 boss never launches electric balls at you in MS2) and super weapons not obtainable in the original game.
So, getting info from Metal Slug Defense. the hadoken POW is named "Hyakutaro". That guy that got eaten by the whale is "Allen O'Neil". I also got the name of the bosses, the tank with the flamer is "Iron Nokana", the land battleship is "Big Shiee" ,the plane is called "The Keesi II", The walker on the train is called "Dragon Nosuke" and that big tank you guys fought in the subway is "Shoe". Don't have the names of the mission 2 and final names though
+Bravelord Speedo They actually fought the exact same one on mission 4 of Metal Slug 1. It was paired up with a similar tank by the name of "Karn"... which sounds cooler, in my opinion.
I was playing metal slug defense And found out morden was trying to conquer the world to end government corruption And the aliens fight you in order to protect the enviroment.
It confuses me. I'm not a native English speaker and I often mispronounce certain words, true, but shouldn't it be "Eecaree" or something like that...?
Yes, Woolie. Nove Scotia is more french than New Brunswick. The only officially bilingual province who shares a border with the french one is less french than Nova Scotia...
+HYPETAUR THE HYPE CACTUAR! They're from Quebec. The whiny pissbabys of Canada. Expecting them to know anything about the rest of the country is too much for them.
We talk about how "everything needs to be 3D now" but I don't think that's necessarily true. I think its just that everything needs to not be pixelated. You can make a beautifully animated 2D game, it "just" needs to be hi resolution. So, like, traditional cartoon animation rather than pixel art. Maybe with a bit of "2D model" "paper doll" fuckery thrown in like a Vanillaware game.
Not even a half-minute in and Woolie is already confusing X with 2 about the bugs. Or Woolie is playing the Liar again. Either way, Metal Slug Forever.
29:20 You want you know the truth? It's perfectly balanced. The train has a recovery time, during the push-back animation. The recovery time matches the handgun's maximum fire rate (auto fire). In other words: with two player two bullets hit, one bullet counts. Also, ZOE 3 Next E3 Comfirmed
hell yea, we LOVE our metal slug here in mexico, i remember going to the store for some tortillas and spending the money on the arcade machine. Good Times T-T
They are totally right about Mexico being SNK land, imagine being a kid in ar third world country and the only fun you can have is a trompo and the arcades en la tiendita de la esquina, thank you guys for remembering my childhood.
btw the name of the guy in the last mission is Allen O'Neil
Really sad to hear that people don't appreciate this spritework. Between this and all the KoF games, SNK had some of the best sprites ever.

Woolie - $4.75
Liam - $4.58
Together it was $9.25
They did little better.
What's this...?
the amount in USD quarters they spent on the game, if 1 continue = 1 quarter
+David B Andrews How much they would've spent on extra lives if this was an arcade machine.
Ah... Wow, that's cheap compared to the 50p/£1 credits over here.
David B Andrews Yeah, those prices seem unfairly fair to other parts of the world.
"Everyone just gave up"

well, I hope you HAVENT recorded the rest of the series
but shoot button + jump button equals the suicide slug attack.
you were more aware of the fact in MS2, but seems like you guys are starting on a clean slate again.
Woolie and Liam formed Gurren Lagann for a bit there.
Who the hell do you think they are?

"Here comes the train! Quick, run as far back as you can!"

Can't wait for MS3! That game gets so hype at the end!

That ending makes MS3 for me.
remember one of your old videos of friday night fisticuffs??? CVS2 was the game... you guys said that when rugal and guile fight the intro was inspired on the guile handcuffs or something like that... play kof 94 reach rugal and see his statues....
If you dont he has a statue of guile, fei long and akuma in the back that's why he does that intro with guile i hope you guys see this comment...
Greeting From Mexico!
Holy crap Mexico way to be on fucking point. Our worlds collide in Baja. I am proud of this.

+Another Syouz I pointed that out too. In that same vid, Woolie refers to Karman Cole as the boss from Art of Fighting 3 >_

+Master Ofu I don't know if he was joking, but I wouldn't be surprised if he was meh on Broforce because there wasn't animu.
Mexican here.
Can confirm that SNK and Metal Slug were the fucking shit here
+Mago The Snowman First time I played metal slug was in Mexico there were SNK machines everywhere.
I swear KoF and Metal Slug was all that mattered. If SNK wasn't around there was something wrong.
Man, when I would travel around Mexico via buses I always checked around in the stations to see if they had any Metal Slug arcades. Shit was the best.

yeah that was basically his attitude about it.
Liam said something bad about Broforce? hope Matt don´t see this video or Liam salary will be cut for sure
+Vincenzo Paollo Grieco When he eventually gets paid, of course.
+Vincenzo Paollo Grieco But Broforce is an excellent game I've played through it many times. It's not a perfect game of course. But the characters all feel different and have a learning curve. The levels allow for many different strategies and routes and are fully destructible. I enjoy it very much. I think it's a very good game. I had a lot of fun with it.

Love the series BTW
Those trains still come in for single player ... they're brutal! Gotta button mash like a madman
knowing the Best Friends will soon continue XCOM fills you with DETERMINATION
Metal Slug with friendly fire would progress as fast as an actual slug.
An actual slug coated in actual metal

Finally another Metal Slug episode. Just 14 more months until the next one! Woo!
As much as we all want to, Let it Go hit the zeitgeist SUPER hard
+Jon The Pretty OK Guy
Fuck the Zeitgeist.
The only series on the channel that I look forward to, same as the Castlevania series that Liam and Matt did. Great work again.
Here in Brazil people were mostly SNK fans in the arcades, KOF crushed Street Fighter around here, and everyone loved Metal Slug.
i actually marathoned these games last week, there so amazingly goofy, but beautiful
They're fantastic games! :)
I was going to say they should have made a Saturday morning cartoon for Metal Slug. But, It already exists. Its called Street Fighter

wait a minute!! Woolie is not rooting for the aliens?! this must be the work of an enemy stand working for the Ustabiaz!
FACT: In Montreal it's actually illegal to use bombs in Metal Slug game.
Wait why?
Been waiting forever for this. Thank guys!
5:17 - "We're getting better at this game!"
Meanwhile, at 2:38 -
God damnit, Liam.
So, getting info from Metal Slug Defense. the hadoken POW is named "Hyakutaro". That guy that got eaten by the whale is "Allen O'Neil". I also got the name of the bosses, the tank with the flamer is "Iron Nokana", the land battleship is "Big Shiee" ,the plane is called "The Keesi II", The walker on the train is called "Dragon Nosuke" and that big tank you guys fought in the subway is "Shoe". Don't have the names of the mission 2 and final names though
i'd love to name a tank fucking shoe
+Bravelord Speedo They actually fought the exact same one on mission 4 of Metal Slug 1. It was paired up with a similar tank by the name of "Karn"... which sounds cooler, in my opinion.

Wait, didnt this video already go up?
+Christopher Christ Metal Slug X is more or less the same game as Metal Slug 2, which they already did.
+Christopher Christ It's a remake with just some minor changes here and there.
When you're talking about a parrying button, there's Hard Corps: Uprising thats in the same style and has a parry button!
This is just like Reboot, every time I forget about it it comes back, except this one is fucking hype.
I didn't know how many times I played this game, really enjoyed this version better than number 2 :)
I can't wait for when they figure out the invincibility frames getting in and out of the slug. Hopefully.
Whenever I hear these guys talk about pixel art, it makes me think: "why are there no silent films anymore?"
The "dog dying" sound effect at 8:32 is the same as the "pointing a camera at a magnemite" sound effect in pokemon snap.
I want the swerve of Metal Slug 3D as the next game since it has a 3 in it.
+xdelta92 It's METAL SLUG 3!

I loved the twist at the end of Cabin in the Woods, although it would be pretty tough to homage that.
Not even a half-minute in and Woolie is already confusing X with 2 about the bugs. Or Woolie is playing the Liar again. Either way, Metal Slug Forever.
Anyone else realise how much more Jojo-esque the backgrounds became with each Metal Slug sequel?
The heavy machine gun is basically a stand.
+professorBofFPU
And it deactivates once you get hit by anything
professorBofFPU It can only hurt people that are carrying firearms and heals people that aren't. Its ammunition is the opponents killing intent.
that guy with the machine gun looks just like roper from battletoads double dragon
The name of the hadouken guy is Hyakutaro, and the gatling gun guy's name is Allen O'Neil
29:20 You want you know the truth? It's perfectly balanced. The train has a recovery time, during the push-back animation. The recovery time matches the handgun's maximum fire rate (auto fire).

I DEMAND a Super Best Friends play of Cactus
I'm not a pro superplayer my any means, but it's kinda painful watching them play so badly...
I noticed only notice Fio this version and future all versions. Change her voice of scream, of course Eri stay with same scream
About time for more of these.
hell yea, we LOVE our metal slug here in mexico, i remember going to the store for some tortillas and spending the money on the arcade machine. Good Times T-T
The return of Wilhelm!
+Zanna AUGH
Soliduz Znake
Wilhelm 3: The Wilhelmening.
I'm surprised they haven't made a current gen Metal Slug, given the tech we have it would look and play awesomely
Yeah, everyone wants to be Fio.
Fio wants to be Fio.
Oh, were you expecting it to be Fio, but it was really me, FIO!
The amount of times you unintentionally suicide your slug without firing even a single cannon shot. Too damn high.
Anyone know where that stock "AUGH" scream the soldiers make originally came from? I feel like I've heard that almost as often as the Wilhelm scream.
That shit came out of fucking Bop-Its, didn't it?
