Metal Slug XX Finally! too bad it’s not 800 points. There is a typo in the title Major.

I thought that “metal slug xx” would only be in the Japanese Mar

Oh god… Metal Slug…. I can never say no to Metal Slug. I just hope the Achievements are just a tad bit easier this time around… Jeez!

Why most games are now 1200mp? Time ago they usually were 800mp. we are in crisis and you increase prices?

If Metal Slug was 800, I’d get it in a second.

@alphos – do the same as me – just dont by the 1200 points titles at that price point. Wait until they are on offer (ie, at the price they should have been to start with).

Don’t care if it’s 1200 points, Metal Slug is DEFINITELY worth $15.

pabc, that’s what i’ll do, but the offer should be 400mp, not 800mp. 800mp is not an offer!!

Was thinking about Metal Slug XX, but 1200 points is way too high.

Metal Slug 3 looks similar, already has Xbox Live Co-Op amongst other features, and is currently only 800 points.

Pass.

I’ll likely pickup Metal slug when it comes out later in the week. I’m a huge Metal Slug fanatic…

Too many comments on metal slug’s price but hey, anyone checked aqua yet ? looks like it has high production values and telling by vids, it could be a fun experience (top down shooter, this time with boats) if can be done co-op. Plus they’ve decided to go 800 points on this.

What’s aqua ? There was an N64 game called aqua aqua, is it like that ? I always liked metal slug 2 best. 1200- too much.

I would have probably spent 800 pts on Metal Slug. Don’t feel like spending 1200 on it.

Metal Slug XX will be a day one purchase. Aqua looks quite interesting too.

What about Games On Demand?

I think i’ll pass on both of these…

Metal Slug can naff off at that price, Aqua looks alright but could be a bit dull. Worth a trial though.

I’ve been waiting for a new MS for ages. THen I seen the price. Forget that. I’ve been one to complain about prices and then sometimes still but something. I’m officially done doing that. Its costing me to much now. I’ve realized if I wait a few months these games all go half price.

Metal Slug XX is great, but 1200 MS points doesn’t justify the purchase, that’s unfortunate, I prefer to be 800 MS points. Trying to support that company, but this type of thing that becomes an obstacle. I remembered SNK vs. Capcom: Chaos for the original Xbox, selling it for $49.99 when it first came out. I hope that KoF 2002: UM won’t be 1200 MS points…

If you dont want to buy this Metal Slug, go buy the Metal Slug Anthology on the wii instead.
Honestly i think its worth it either way.

I’ve loved Military Touhou ever since I was a kidda and got them all on the anthology for PSP along with XX later. I ouldn’t rebuy it for Xbox since I already have it.

Seems alot of dough for something you can get in a pack which includes pretty much all the Metal Slugs.

Hmm, the “rehash” of Metal Slug 7. Hmm, and $5 cheaper than it’s PSP counterpart….nah, I’ll have to pass for now. Anthology for Wii/PS2 gives me all the fill I need.

I think I’ll give Aqua a trial

Metal Slug XX for 1200 points is way too much, 800 points and I would have downloaded the full game the second it hit live.

“Why most games are now 1200mp?” – They’re not. More 800 point games have been released this year than 1,200 point ones. As for Metal Slug XX, this is cheaper than both the DS and PSP versions and it has more features.

NEW METAL SLUG! YES!!

Just so show people I wasn’t kidding I ended up a few minutes ago buying MG Anthology for Wii! Cost me $16 on Ebay and it has no scratches and include case and manual! Yeah…..BETTER DEAL then MS is charging!

“As for Metal Slug XX, this is cheaper than both the DS and PSP versions and it has more features.”

Except those are a physical product which will always work, and never need a license to run on another console in the future. Digitally distributed games need to be dirt cheap, because it’s not much better than renting until they stop using DRM.

I like Metal Slug XX but I will wait till its on sale then I will jump on it
