RGB High Score Battle! - Week 41 & 42: Metal Slug X

An improvement but I had two dumbo deaths at the beginning of stage 4 so I’m dissapointed

Got to stage 4 then it all fell apart.

I don’t think I’ve ever beaten the second boss without hitting a game over. I need to stop immediately sacrificing the mech.

Slowly ticking upward. I hate mummies.

Yeah I always accidentally hit both buttons and sac the vehicle right away. I think it was designed that way on purpose, because to clear that boss with the vehicle intact takes the dexterity of a concert pianist.

Can we extend this one another day or two?

Been unpacking from a move and haven’t had a chance to play yet. I really want to though!

Yes let’s do that. I haven’t had as much time to play as I wanted.

Yes please. I need to dust off the rust. Here’s my first run (top score pictured).

I messed up level 3 pretty bad. Also didn’t take the picture in time to see how many guys I saved (I love saving them). Lost two lives on level 3.

Then died in the beginning of level 4. I know for sure I can run through level 4 on one CC. But only playing out of my mind.

Don’t mind the wires. I’m still setting up my systems and haven’t done the cable management yet.

Did you color on your TV for that authentic Neo Geo ‘Nam 1975 blacked out leg look? That seems like it might permanently damage your screen! :wink::joy:

Been thinking of buying MSX on Switch and discovered today I didn’t need to because it’s on Microsoft Game Pass! Working on my score. :slight_smile: :slight_smile:

Game looking hot on that PVM! I’m still trying to score, but stage 3 has been killing me too.

Gave it another go today when I had a spare moment. Going to (hopefully) keep improving.

P.s. it’s amazing just how much harder this game is over Metal Slug 1 and even Metal Slug 2. This is the first one that truly stared munching quarters before MS3 got totally crazy.

Yeah MS1 is a total breeze compared to this.

C’mon guys, last day to post scores. Don’t let me win and pick the next one!
