Koch Media/Deep Silver

This is the same group that Published STALKER CLEAR SKY so they have some relations with A4 Media already as many of A4 helped make the original STALKER and CLear Sky.

just finished downloading metro 2033 . trying to start the game on mac by using a wrapper but i always get black screen .. xD

adorie4102d ago

Good luck with that Metro 2033 is still one of the most graphically intense games on PC today. I don't mean to sound condescending either, should you run it at acceptable framerates, give us an update. ^^;

hiredhelp4102d ago

graphically intense games
Telling me even puts my 7970 threw its paces incredible really anyway on topic glad 4A still working on this cant wait.

hiredhelp4101d ago

Could be the built in Intel HD graphics on the CPU the issue mate to be honist

cyclindk4102d ago

It had a lot of promise, but not enough support (money and all that) I think. But gave rise to the new one so hopefully it's everything Metro 2033 was not.

Plagasx4102d ago

I just hope the game is still on track for release in March...

Metro Video Game Series: A Comprehensive History

The Metro video game series started with a humble b-list title, before building a strong fanbase and becoming a pioneer in the industry.

Never got into Exodus, but 2033 was excellent.

kevco3372d ago

Yeah, Exodus just didn't grab me either, sadly.

I absolutely loved 2033 and Last Light, however. Played them both on 360 and then again with the remasters!

anast72d ago

I just started it and it is already miles better than the first 2 which are dated.

Metro: Last Light - Still Fresh After 10 Years

4A Games' Metro: Last Light originally launched on Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC 10 years ago today, and still holds up.

MrDead338d ago

I got bored of Hogwarts crazy quick and it's bugs, was looking for just any good game got the Metro trilogy for about £8.50 in a Steam sale played through 2033 Redux, Last Light Redux and now am on Exodus. The series is awesome, the first two are like more liner story driven FPS with a few options to confront the levels, stealth, no kill runs and guns blazing, depending on how you play effects the story and its outcome. Third game I'm playing now is heavy story driven (but optional if you don't want to listen you can just walk away... I don't know why you would though) with large open levels that take hours to explore and still some of the best use of RTX I've seen to date, can play this game on ultra with DLSS set to quality, raytracing set to ultra at 4K with no dips, played on Extreme setting and was getting a few drops around water and some interiors.

Cant recommend this series enough and as a new fan I can't wait to see the next game in 2024... I also got the audio books so looking forward to see how well the games follow the original books. A4 Games are extremely talented.
