Oh god, be aware, fat character with lazer is super deadly. I swear, it wooped ass.

STM, HMG definitely is the most used and best weapon. But if you want fun challanges, go with the shotgun :D Right now, I'm challanging my self, only using a pistol.... And it's a pain in the ass against the bosses and tanks T_T

Oh, god. The bosses in MS are freaking epic. I've gone through 10 credits on one boss.

The first boss of MS3 is one of my personal favorites. Such an amazing spectacle of animation, like most of them are, but man alive.

Shit, until you reach the final boss in MS3, don't even talk about it lol.

I've beaten the lot of them. The last boss is great and all, but not an amazing spectacle of animation like the first one is.

The first one... ya it was pretty cool too as far as I can remember, but I found MS1 a little dull in some areas. When I first played MS1, I didn't even realize that the final boss was indeed the final boss until I killed him. The music did not change and the final boss in MS1 was just Modern on a helicopter dropping bombs shooting missiles and shooting his cannon. Nothing special.

But 2 and X made a big improvement. There were more extraordinary stuff going on. So ya. MS3... I haven't played it, but I hope to get the chance to do so.

3 and 6 are the biggest challanges in MS. 2 and X are probably the biggest improvement they had in MS.

Ahhh...  Metal slug.  I remember going to the arcade with my friend, spending couple bucks playing it at a time.

If anyone is interested, at least MS 3 is on XBLA.
