When i was a kid, i remember seeing this game in a laundromat. I dont know if this is a mandela effect or something but i really remember seeing the arcade cabinet calling it "running man" for the longest time i kept looking for it under the name "running man". It was bugging me so much because i liked seeing this game and wanted to know what it was. Till now i finally found it and its called something totally different.

[@porshprix4286]

I use to play this game all the time when I was a kid but the title was in a foreign language. Strangely enough I also played it at a laundromat.

[@Akira625]

This game stuck in my head because the music sounds a lot like the theme to Inspector Gadget.

[@a-a-ron97]

that music is awesome

[@hexkwondo]

I remember seeing this game in my local ShopRite when I was a kid. Sadly, I didn't have any quarters to play it, so I had to watch the demo until my mom finished paying for all the groceries.

[@VilaToro64]

Can't tell you how much I use to just sir and watch the demo on games and when someone would play i would just watch but if im lucky enough they would give me a quarter to play

[@MrVariant]

Switch Arcade archives release just came out. Nice music I admit.

[@BagelNosed3DSuser]

Why does the music sound like a combination of the fairly odd parents theme and the inspector gadget theme

[@lestervarela3332]

Ray Charles - Hit the road, Jack

[@chamberkingston7609]

One problem... this isn't a longplay. This game has an ending, and you didn't make it. I get the game is hard, but how many hard games did you beat on a single credit?

[@leroyvisiongames2294]

I’m guessing this runs on the same audio hardware as Mappy? Music sounds very similar, especially the instruments that they used.

[@argonaut640]

Must admit, when I searched what Metro Cross was, this was not what I had in mind.

[@japhreal]

Remember when they reskin this game to pepsi man?

[@section23]

Remember the Amstrad version of this one well!

[@KingoAnimate]

I love that name entry music! It even sounds like the game should’ve been ported onto a Jakks Plug N Play TV Game due to what I stated.

[@chowmein0941]

You better ready yourself!

[@Amonimus]

The bravest game and golden in general.

[@ruzkbthenon-sider2834]

"READY YOURSELF PLAYER ONE" They just gotta appreciate their Engrish.

[@minuteworld7027]

this sounds like mappy

[@Seafoamgaming]

It uses the same sound board, so it's not much of a surprise that they reuse the instruments.

[@torrent9666]

Same composer, actually.

[@keykosolitaire6277]

Like Paris on those moments. :)

[@uubrmanx]

Is that Pepsiman? (You dodge giant cans of coke after all!)

[@joshuacoleman6947]

FORESHADOWING 2021!!

[@dieinfire920]

Back on the day I was able to make it until stage 6 or 7 with one coin. Loved the music!

[@johnwardjr-ru2bx]

Metro Cross......where the main enemy is,of course,time.

[@WorldIsOnReanimatedSWV]

Every Running For Can

[@user-kn8ki8in4r]

Good ending, good ending, it has a good ending.

[@davidmatoushek9111]

It's hard to believe that brutalmoose used some of this game's music for a while.

[@davidmatoushek9111]

IceHighwind In his old Lightning Round videos.

[@user-kn8ki8in4r]

Remember will not time runs out in round 16. Otherwise, time will runs out, if you get zapped by lighting.

[@KingoAnimate]

The name entry fanfare sounds like the 2nd-6th place name entry theme for Pole Position

[@nolanwine5062]

Does anyone know how the game decides where the cans will go after they're kicked? Is it decided by the player through the angle of contact and speed, or is it RNG?

[@user-kn8ki8in4r]

Watch out! The timer will runs out! You will get zapped by the lighting! (From round 15)

[@chrismather99]

How come round 1 and 2 got repeated before moving onto round 3?

[@janswhatsupdoc]

anyone here because of sakura-sou?

[@dubz720]

Yep

[@anunknowninvididual2005]

Same

[@anunknowninvididual2005]

I've completed all the episodes...

[@VectorOmega]

Now...if MGM can get the rights to do a TV adaptation of this sport...btw, who's gonna host it?

[@cudencuden]

the round 3 finish is hilarious

[@tord1642]

Indeed, it felt like something from Looney Toons lol.

[@longnecklupin1487]

TO START PUSH ONLY ONE PLAYER'S BUTTON READY YOURSELF PLAYER ONE

[@skyway73]

Why did it go back to Round 1 after finishing Round 2? 🤔

[@Bloodreign1]

The game has 32 levels, this is not a completed longplay, only about halfway.

[@TORUXD0]

COLONOA CONTRA ATACA

[@FakeAdminZ]

I found this because of the love of WTF games circa 79-86. I mean, WTF? EDIT: watched the attract screen 12 dozen times alongside roadblasters while stuck in a swimming pool no money no trunks once. Smelling cafe coffee chips n tomato sauce I couldn't buy for 3 hours so thumbs up metro cross I guess. Was kind of sick of the sight of it tho.

[@chellys.catbox]

thys sounds weird wythout the intense noby noby boy vocals

[@joshuacoleman6947]

FORESHADOWING 2021!! GET WOKE GO BROKE!!!

[@saj8]

Translation: I'm not allowed to get away with my racism anymore without losing my endorsements. That's what that statement really boils down to.

[@joshuacoleman6947]

@@saj8 😂 lol yep because woke is a a new white supremacy. They transferred the MLB game here out of Atlanta and moved it to Denver when Atlanta has a bigger black population 😂

[@user-kn8ki8in4r]

Beat the clock, it just use infinite times only.

[@Ephraim225]

2:30 wow the score is 76550? Funny that you got that exact number haha

[@freddiehavens9066]

[@user-kn8ki8in4r]

[@ruzkbthenon-sider2834]

[@ShanGamer1981]

Its on switch eshop now

[@snapcracker0]

He's naked, right?

[@BAKU2K2]

No, it's an orange track suit.

[@espeonmatrix]

It's Pepsiman.

[@mightyal100]

I remember the crowd gathered round me when I finished the final level. It has to be done perfectly. Every hurdle, every skateboard, every can, every green bit

[@kumatmebro315]

Why is he naked

[@eins2001]

He isn't

[@ChristopherSobieniak]

@@eins2001 Yes, that's a jumpsuit he's got on.

[@BETMARKonTube]

Damn I hate this game! Sure it was appealing and fun, also with a good catchy bgm... for the first 5 minutes!!! Then everyone at the arcade started to fall and lose and that starting jingle was like a loop!!!!!! It could be one of my good arcade memories, if only was a bit easier for (at least) the first 10 stages -_-) -BETMARK-

[@ChristopherSobieniak]

BETMARKonTube Even in the future, Ragtime persists!

[@BETMARKonTube]

Christopher Sobieniak XD LoL But really, the bgm is catchy.

[@ChristopherSobieniak]

BETMARKonTube I know, perhaps if they had a few random variants it would make it a little more challenging as the game goes on.
