Anyone buy Metal Slug 3 (PS2)?

This has to be the first time my store has let me down. I pre-ordered Metal Slug 3 about two months ago, and suddenly on our upcoming release list it is listed as a black out title. That means on the list it is listed but covered in grey meaning we will not recieve the title, whether or not someone pre-orders it. As far as I know this game was set to be in my store by 12/26. So did anyone else pick it up, or has it been pushed back?

The game failed to receive approval from SCEA. It will be some time before the game is released...if ever.

Ya know.. I'm sure this game put Sony into a mind-flux when trying to decide to let them release it in the USA.

It's 2D and that's bad!! But it's violent and that's good!! Oh the horror, the horror!!

Thats a joke if Sony wont approve it. There are so many crappy games on the PS2 and this game is great.

1. Metal Slug is the BEST series 2D shooting ever release (take forever to have sony aprove it)

2. Samurai Shodown Series (hoping good new for New Samurai Shodown Zero)

3. Ys Series (Anytime soon)

4. SNK Classics 1/2/3 (Definite for real gamers)

& Alot Alot more titles!!
