I managed to cheese my way into the 2mil points using the game save state.

Whenever playing original mode press the menu and view buttons on your controller for the in-game menu to appear and select “Create Interrupt Save Data”, which will create a save state of the game with current score.

If you get deaded on the game just quit the game entirely on the xbox menu and restart the game selecting the original mode and presto it autoloads the last save state, bonus points that the game will not erase this save state even if you exit without re-saving, so you can reload as many times as you need and then just re-save as you go along.

You don't have to quit right out to dashboard, you can just choose return to title screen. When you start the game again it will carry on from where you left off. Quicker than quitting from dashboard and loading game again.

Not sure how this is any different than just inserting another coin and continuing when you run out of lives?

The points reset after a continue is used, thus making the run longer, using the save state feature allows you to get the 2mil points before finishing act 3.

Ok thanks, I didn't know that.

You don't lose your points, you just lose your POW which is 100k+ a level

Also, you mean act 5; I got 2mil by the trains

yes, the pows are lost, and i got mine before act 3 was done for sure.

Press the back button and change the game to easy with 20 lives or so.

This is a complete achievement walk-through with a successful 1.5mill run of HI SCORE MODE video with constant commentary explaining everything to look for when attempting these achievements. I can guarantee you will limit the amount of play-throughs needed by watching/reading this

ORIGINAL Mode: Use the walkthrough to see how to maximize points in the first 2 missions, then combine that with the save trick mentioned below to achieve 2,000,000 points.

CARAVAN Mode: "Get as many points as you can in 5 Mins" So basically follow the walkthrough for Mission 1 and these cheevs shouldn't be a problem.
*Can be glitchy I got 900k and only unlocked the 500k achievement...it wasn't until I "Quit" the game and reloaded it that it worked, but only after I reached the required score again.*

HI SCORE MODE: To get 1.5mill w/o continues...this is the main focus of this video follow the tips and watch the playthrough for your best chance at success. Practice makes perfect here!

ORIGINAL MODE ONLY Tips
- You can use the “Creat Interrupt Save Data” option to create a Save exactly where you paused your game,
and if you die you can just hit the

GENERAL TIPS
1 - Melee kills are worth 500 points opposed to 100 for shooting them
2 - Grab ALL treasure, some can be random from 100-30000 points at some spots
3 - Ride vehicles to the end for big points
4 - Each POW saved = 10000 points & 30000 points for the backpack girl **you must walk into her!**
5 - Practice makes perfect, other than random rewards everything else stays the same combat-wise

ORIGINAL MODE ONLY Tips
- You can use the “Creat Interrupt Save Data” option to create a Save exactly where you paused your game,
and if you die you can just hit the

button on your controller and “Quit” Metal Slug X.
- When you reload ORIGINAL mode it will put you back exactly where you saved. BE CAREFUL not to save right
before you are about to die trapping yourself in an endless death loop.
- Use this walk-through to see how to maximize your points in the first 2 missions, leaving you with decent wiggle room for the 2 mill.

MISSION 1 Tips
1 - Grab the Camel! It's worth 400,000 points compared to the 200,000 for the tank.
2 - Right before you get on the Camel throw grenades to kill the Arabian on the other camel to avoid a tough camel battle.
3 - Just after the camel sequence there is a reward that shows up on the top level which most of the time is a 30,000 point gem, but sometime it's a sh**ty apple worth 100...restart if this happens.
4 - At the HELICOPTER section make sure to KILL THE RED ONE 1ST as it will give you an extra 125,000 points!! :o
5 - The last 3 POW's are underneath the BOSS after you destroy the under turret. Make sure to grab them before one walks off the screen! P.s. It is safe to go under there with your camel.

MISSION 2 Tips
1 - I would avoid using melee on the mummy enemies. Once mummified you can change safely back if you find a glowy potion somewhere before you are hit with the purple haze again.
2 - The "Bee Mummies" were my worst enemy, I suggest you get the green mummies as soon as you can to avoid any frustration.
3 - Just after the first 2 "Bee Mummies" there is a corpse in the lower-right corner. Interact with it for 50,000 points, but quickly run away as the corpse blows up right after!
4 - There are 3 RNG reward sections that can contain 30,000 points in this mission, I point them out in the video.
5 - End the level in the Mech vehicle to get 200,000 points. If you are hit twice while in the Mech, then you will have no turrets forcing you to get out if you want to finish the level.

MISSION 3 "Clean-Up"
1 - Mop up the rest of your points here if you didn't get it at the end of Mission 2.
2 - Take it slow, grabbing all the goodies and melee killing enemies when you have the chance!
3 - Most people should have 1.5m by the time they get to the boat section that starts with 2 POW's on the train w/ one giving you a weapon upgrade. If you don't have it by here you probably won't make it.

TIMESTAMPS:
00:01 - Tips Explained
01:43 - Mission 1 Ended w/ 911,000 Points
06:02 - Mission 2 Ended w/ 1,474,000 Points
12:52 - Mission 3 Clean Up
15:47 - ORIGINAL Mode "Save Trick"

You can also just go back to the menu and continue the game using the save trick. It might safe you lots of time when you are not that great at this game and you die a lot.

I did this without the save function.

Simply adjusted the settings to lowest difficulty, and 99 lives.

Aced the first couple levels, but still ended up using 1 continue after my 99 lives...because I suck at this game.

Hit 2,000,000 points within the first minute of shooting the final boss.

I don't know whether this is quicker or slower, but an option should you not feel like saving and reloading over and over.

this is less irritating than reloading constantly
