Hopefully this is not bullshit.

[Mzo]

Wow.

I'd buy the Metal Slug 4&5 combo.

[George]

I'd probably get both...if this isn't killed off.

[Zerodash]

What about MS3?

[Joust Williams]

This is cool news...I wonder if Sony is starting to drop the whole "no 2D on our systems in America" thing. Hopefully they realize that it is a stupid idea.

[Despair]

Wow.

I'd buy the Metal Slug 4&5 combo.

My words exactly. Hope its not just a rumor.

What about MS3?

Well, There is always future Xbox version. Hopefully.

[Cheebs]

I'd get Metal Slug 4+5 without a doubt.

[The Bastard]

What about MS3?

I have this terrible feeling it's gonna be bundled with SNK VS Capcom: Chaos. It'll be the ultimate balance. One game is their crappiest in years and the other one is considered their best effort.

This is cool news...I wonder if Sony is starting to drop the whole "no 3D on our systems in America" thing. Hopefully they realize that it is a stupid idea.

I doubt that. They probably are sick and tired of Ben Herman constantly bothering them with his wares. Also, they are bundles so it doesn't seem so bad for the 2D hating assholes to allow through.

metal slug 4 and 5 in 2005? when did 5 come out? or is that why we have to wait until '05 to get it?

[The Bastard]

Metal Slug 5 ain't out yet for PS2. I assume that's probably the reason for the Spring release.

Man, SNK USA better get some shit out soon or they gonna be flat ass broke at this rate.
