There are so many of these. Right now u just got kof xi for 7.00 new so that was a good deal, but is it the best?
This game will suit your needs, Mas

Dont know how much it costs nowadays but I paid about $25 for it some time ago.

EDIT: Theres also a few more of these too. World heroes and Art of fighting come to mind.
Yeah I've had that on the wii as well as the metal slug and samurai showdown anthologies. Man have the prices spiked up in over a couple of years.

Is there any websites that have TV shows that will work on my PS3? I know certain networks and such have their stuff out there for free, and I'd like to watch it on my PS3, but I can't ever get it to work.

I still need to pick up that Metal Slug Anthology.

I have beaten parts 1, 4, 5, and XX, but none of the others.

You're missing out. 2, X, and 3 are all awesome, with 2 being a personal favorite despite the slow down(X is effectively a fixed remake of 2).

I still think Metal Slug 1 is the best. It just feels more fair to me. 3 is my least favourite for sure, despite being the favourite for many - too much going on for my liking.

I know 4 and 6 don't seem popular, but I love both of those ones. 5 I remember nothing about though.

IIRC Amazon has an app for PS3 that will allow you to watch your Amazon Digital Video purchases through PS3. Is that the sort of thing you're looking for, or were you specifically looking for free content?

The PS3 can also act a great DLNA client. If you have a DLNA server running on your computer you can pretty much watch any videos on your computer through the PS3 without much concern over video formats, so long as they're supported by the server. I've used Serviio and PS3 Media Server for this purpose which are both pretty great, but there are a ton of them out there.

Hulu Plus works fine, though it isn't free. However, that's how Hulu is for devices in general, I think - need Plus for it to work, where the free version is in-browser only, so PC/Mac.

There's Crunchyroll if you want to watch anime (or Korean dramas or whatnot). Premium version has access to more, gets content faster, etc, but there's stuff you can watch free as well.

I have hulu plus and think its well worth the 8 bucks a month. There's also crackle that is free but limited in content.

Not gonna lie, I do not understand how a human being is supposed to beat the Final Mission. It's SO INSANE.

I'd like the Metal Slug Anthology, but don't have a Wii and heard the PS2 version is kind of lousy. I wonder if the XBLA version of Metal Slug 3 allows for unlimited continues; being able to play through that would be enough for me!
