PixelPerfectGaming writes: SNK addressed a few issues with the Playstation 3 release of Metal Slug 2. When it first appeared on the Neo-Geo back in 1998, it suffered from slowdown when too many sprites appeared on-screen. To remedy this problem in the Playstation 3 release, SNK included a CPU over-clock feature. This eliminates any slowdown that would normally occur during the original game.
The default game setting is the censored ‘English’ version with ‘white’ blood, but selecting ‘Japanese’ as the default language unlocks the blood and gore of the arcade version. Just about everything in the game remains in English.
Carl Williams writes, "Here are some fun pieces of retro gaming on sale with Steam right now. For those that do not know, this time of year is the annual Summer Sale. Tons of games go on sale for two weeks or so. For fans of older titles though, this can make it hard to find them. I am going to try and help with that a bit."
December is finally here! This means yet another batch of Free Games with Prime.

The ACA NEOGEO collection is actually solid in terms of presenting that original game with a tad more to it (features, modes). The games themselves might not all be amazing, but if you do like any of them they're well taken care of.
I adore this series. Always happy to see more people talking about it. MS2 is good, but MS3 will always be my fave.
One of the absolute greatest series ever created. If you don't have the complete series on the Sony vita do yourself a favor and get it.
