Argh. My favorite all time game: metal slug, which for those of you who don't know is the best side-scroller ever (yes, ever), with beautiful sprite-based animation and cartoony-contra style graphics, is coming to the PS2 as a 3D game. Some bullshit company picked up the license from SNK, looks like, and now they are doing stupid things with it. Here is a link some screenshots from gamespot...

I must say, that these screens don't look nearly as bad as I anticipated, as at least they keep the general look/feel of the 2d game, esp. the metal slug itself, as well as the troopers, and marco (who I call joe america). But something still feels wrong. The world feels empty, whereas the 2d felt packed with life! I'm getting so excited I must go play ms3 right now (after this post).
Anyway, have a look. and I will fight you if you have anything bad to say about metal slug - unless it is about how lame the 3D version is going to be.
