Thanks SDA (am I the only one tired of mentioning the same individuals every time?). I would also like to thank mikwuyma for helping me with some strategies.

I should start from whining about my hardware. The day before I've started recording I, accidentaly, smashed my ps2 gamepad (getting killed by the last soldier in the entire game, anyone?). So the only option that I had left was to play on a logitech gamepad... which in my case is a pile of shit. I actually have to use some force to push the damn buttons. It leads to some really minor slowdowns during the run (eg, pushing the grenade button not hard enough so that I have to turn around and try it again), unfortunately I couldn't do anything against it. :(

• Mission 1:
  Not much to say about the first stage to be honest. It went as planned, pretty much flawless.

• Mission 2:
  I've missed one shotgun round at the end of section 1. No wait, I didn't miss it, the game just didn't register it -.-. At the last battle before the boss, my gamepad gave me a hard time against the bat, and then it only got worse when one of the dogs jumped and in the result I've lost half a second. The platforming part went great, as well as the rest of the stage.

• Mission 3:
  I've mashed the attack button too softly at the first two soldiers with shields so I've failed with stabbing them immidietly. The rest of the stage went well, I've even killed the boss before firing all my rockets.

• Mission 4:
  This one went flawless.

• Mission 5:
  At the very beginning of this stage, from the car on the left, you can either get a rocket launcher or a laser. The laser is a better option so I can agree that I had good luck there. I took my time to make sure that every vehicle is on my screen before I waste my laser units/rockets/grenades on it (all subway trains and the last tanks before the boss especially). I took a rocket launcher before the boss fight just for safety, sometimes a fight with two tanks will trigger there, sometimes it won't. This stage went well overally.

• Mission 6:
  Ahhh yes, stage 6, the reason for 999 failed no-deaths-run attempts. I've almost died at the beginning (again) but it turned out that I didn't loose any time at all. I took my time to kill all soldiers after getting iron lizard to make sure that I won't die again (and again, and again, and...). The waving bridge bit went great (because I didn't die one more time), as you can see, I've played it safe also here. My good ol' logitech gamepad reminded me of its existence at the two spike shield tanks + aliens fight, before getting flame shot. I've planned to keep at least two shotgun rounds for the last boss fight but unfortunately I didn't have as much luck as I planned at the last alien fight. I was left with only one shot left, and with my luck I've managed to use it on a soldier (I've wanted to stab him, but pressed the attack button like one frame too early). The first stage of the last boss didn't go as well as I wanted it to. He did his thunder bolt attack really early so I couldn't kill him with my first grenade spam (usually he won't attack at all). It didn't even get to my head that I can shoot him with the pistol when he's above me, I was a little paranoid about dying.

I'm not happy with the final outcome at all. The combination of bad luck and a logitech gamepad (because of bad luck) leads to runs like this. I can at least hope that I'll find the time to improve this run when I'll get a working gamepad. As for now, you can at least enjoy this run.

I am impressed by how many people have put so much effort into their play, it is an incentive to others like myself. Keep at it, like in other domains of life the last word of a game is not set in stone, keep moving forward.

That is why I wanted to participate on this site with a contribution of my own, I hope not the only one. Although many things are taken lightly and life has moments on which you have to focus, like in the game, and in life you shouldn't miss out on what's important.

Metal Slug X has an straightforward premise but it is not a simple game, it is a simple idea that can turn complicated. Every kind of game has its own charm, most people think that gaming is a waste of time, but a wise man learns from his mistakes and the mistakes of others, knowledge of this allows us to learn more from life. That is what games have taught me, as well as that you can repeat parts of life as if using an extra continue or loading a game save.

A lot of friends didn't want me to keep playing, perhaps they just weren't actually friends, despite this many female friends supported me, nothing happens without trust. I chose Fio because I've always believed in sexual equality, I saw other videos where they do the same, sometimes life inspires you in beautiful ways.

• Mission 1: 1:15:40

  This mission was extremely fun, this is the only level I use the super vehicle because of its antitank ammo, and vulcan fix since it's the fastest way to take down the choppers.

• Mission 2: 2:03:51

  I have always admired the egyptian culture, in this case the mummies weren't much of an inconvenient given they are already dead anyways, The boss is my favorite from this game, I don't know what kind of tank it is but it looks great. The bats from this part bring me good memories, a personal anecdote of course.

• Mission 3: 2:08:97

  We have no trains in my country, should have hopped into one when they still existed, whatever, this mission has a different ambient to other stages of the game, great enemy variety, no long load times even with psx limitations, helping the final timer. The aerial vehicle is primordial for the almost finishing part of the mission.

• Mission 4: 1:47:18

  The mission you have to be the luckiest, also the one that took the most work since the aliens are a real threat to gaining some seconds. The higher the cost the most it is appreciated, this is not an exception.

• Mission 5: 3: 09:80

  Luck brought the laser gun, the rockets instead would have made a difference of more than 10 seconds towards the end. Soldiers are very violent and it is best not to build fat (get on a diet). I'm sorry if I killed a bat, I don't like animals getting killed, or trees getting cut down. I wasn't worried by the zombies, they should have worried about me.

• Final Mission: 3:26:60

  Without doubt my favorite mission, the variety..., it starts on snow and ends in a city on flames, I bet it has a meaning. I have always believed in extraterrestrial life but the paradoxical is that I dedicated myself to exterminating them.

I want to dedicate this record to someone special who helped and supported me, Micaela, for whom I don't wanna kill vampires.

En esta carta me admira como varios chicos se esfuerzan por jugar es un aliciente para otros como yo. siguen adelante, como en otras ramas de la vida no se sabe la ultima palabra de un juego, sigan adelante.

Por eso deseo participar en su pagina con mi colaboración, ya que espero que no sea el único juego en el cual participe, ya muchas cosas se toman a la ligera y la vida tiene sus momentos serios, como en el juego y en la vida no se debe descuidar lo mas importante.

Metal slug x es u juego simple por si idea en general pero no sencillo, es una simple idea que se puede complicar, cada tipo de juego tiene su encanto, la mayoría piensa que jugar es una pérdida de tiempo, para un hombre sabio aprende de sus errores y de los errores de los demas, sabiendo esto se puede aprender mas en la vida, eso es lo que me enseñaron los juegos y también se que se puede repetir partes de la vida como en un continue o salvar partida.

Pese a todo muchas de mis amistades no querían que me esfuerze jugando, solo no eran mis amigos realmente, mas bien hubo varias anigas que me apoyaron, nada se consigue si no hay confianza.

En el video escogí al personaje Fio porque siempre creí en la igualdad se sexos,vi en otros video de records hacer lo mismo ,a veces la vida te inspira de las maneras más bonitas.

• Misión 1: 1:15:40

  Esta misión fue muy divertida, es la única parte del juego en que use el super vehiculo por su munición antitanque y vulcan fix por ser la manera más rápida de derribar los helicópteros.

• Misión 2: 2:03:51

  Siempre sentí admiración por la cultura egipcia, en este caso las momias no fueron un gran inconveniente, puesto que ya estaban muertas de todos modos, el jefe de esta escena es mi favorito de todo el juego no se que clase de tanque es pero se ve bien, los murcielas de esta parte me traen buenos recuerdos en una anécdota personal esta claro.

• Misión 3: 2:08:97

  En mi país ya no hay trenes, debí subir a uno cuando habían aun, ni modo, esta misión tiene un ambiente diferente a las demás partes del juego ,gran variedad de enemigos, no hay muchos tiempos de carga aún con las limitaciones del psx, facilitando el tiempo .El vehiculo aéreo es primordial para la parte casi final de la misión.

• Misión 4: 1:47:18

  La misión en que mas suerte se debe tener y también la mas trabajo me costó ya que los extraterrestres son una amenaza real para ganar uno segundos. Muchas veces se aprecia más lo que mas trabajo cuesta y esta no es la excepción

• Misión 5: 3:09:80

  Al principio la suerte otorga el laser gun sino en cambio los cohetes harías un a diferencia de mas de 10 segundos al final, los soldados son muy violentos y es mejor no engordar( ponerse a dieta) .perdón si mate a un murciélago no degusta que maten animales ni ver talar árboles .los zombies no me preocuparon mas bien ellos deben preocuparse de mi.

• Final Misión: 3:26: 60

  Sin lugar a dudas mi misión favorita, la variedad de la escena comienza en la nieve y termina en una ciudad en llamas seguro so quiere decir algo. siempre creí en la vida extraterrestre pero lo paradójico es que me dedique a exterminarlos.

También quiero dedicar este record a alguien especial ,me ayudo y me apoyó, a Micaela por la que no quiero matar vampiros.
