    Input lag in the controls make these games unplayable. Moving or shooting take almost 0.5 seconds to represent in the screen so you will be constantly dying by easy-to-avoid bullets and floor gaps. Unacceptable port.

    I tried really hard to like this game. Being a hardcore Metal Slug gamer I can personally say that this is a pathetic port to come over from PS2 to PS4. I will say the intro gave me child hood vibes and was excited to get straight into the action. The biggest problem was the input lag. When starting up any Metal Slug game I noticed that the Neo-Geo boot up was slower than what it is meantI tried really hard to like this game.

I will say the intro gave me child hood vibes and was excited to get straight into the action. The biggest problem was the input lag. When starting up any Metal Slug game I noticed that the Neo-Geo boot up was slower than what it is meant to be. Starting the first mission i was so disappointed when moving, shooting, throwing grenades e.t.c every move you make is delayed by a big input lag. For needing to constantly dodge bullets and hazards it can become very frustrating when you just hit a bullet because of the input lag. Another complaint i will make is that this a port from the PS2 and not a remake. Wouldn't it have been nice to see wide screen support and possibly online play. Overall, Metal Slug Anthology PS4 is a very big disappointed and needs to either be updated to have very minimal input lag or completely remade so it can look more modern(The graphics in-game game are fine as they are old school arcade games). If you are looking to buy Metal Slug on PS4, I would not recommend Metal Slug Anthology Expand

    PLEASE STOP RIGHT HERE, the PS4 version of this game has severe INPUT LAG problems to the point of being UNPLAYABLE, if you don't belive me just do a search on the net. We are talking about half a second delay, which is unacceptable. The problem is especially noticeable in the first game but it never really goes away.

We are talking about half a second delay, which is unacceptable. The problem is especially noticeable in the first game but it never really goes away. My heart broke when my gf was playing with me and she kept falling because there was such a long delay between pressing the jump button and actually jumping so she would end up running down cliffs, I didn't have the heart to tell her "I'm sorry but this game is broken and I just wasted my money".

    I actually agree with the guy who gave a 0 review, this game makes you feel robbed and it shouldn't be on the store.

    Ok, I feel cheated.

    I bought a game on playstation 4. For playstation 4. I wasn't expect a remaster, with 3D graphics, new special effects or even a special content. I expected arcade experience, so the level I've got like 15 years ago on my Pentium 200. I LOVE Metal Slug. I was a score chaser. Knew every hidden secret, and every possibility to earn even more points. When I first sat

    I LOVE Metal Slug. I was a score chaser. Knew every hidden secret, and every possibility to earn even more points. When I first sat to this collection, I lost four continues on first 3 stages of first game though. Controls are LAGGY. Like 1,5s lag between pressing a jump and jumping. In game when accuracy is everything it ruins not even the experience. It makes the game unplayable!

    There is a review of this game (8/10) with bottom line "controls are responsive". What. The. **** Do we play different games? I payed the full price and I will not play it. Didn't finish even first game out of seven.

    And it comes from Metal Slug Fan.

    btw: I know there is a lot of biased reviews finished with 1/10 score. This isn't one of them. 1/10 for me is when the game is unplayable, and - for me - this game isn't playable at all.

    This is not your usual 1 star rant review. Input lag of nearly half a second makes this game literally unplayable! Don't get scammed as I have been.

    The controls are responsive and the shooting is damn right awesome.
