I'll enjoy killing the dark ones again :)

Spenok4348d ago

Agreed. This game looks to be a very good improvement over the first one as well. I am excited.

ninjahunter4348d ago

Looks good for the most part :)
Only two complaints, The characters dont look much better expressed than Metro 2033, but thats never really been a selling point.
And the interactions, like reloading, recoil recovery and so on, look alot faster, Just seems like more emphasis on action that horror.
On the other hand Its nice not being gimped by a poor control system, im just leery because alot of PC games(Ports) fall into the trap of the player being unstoppable due to superior controls.

In situations of extreme danger with a mix of pure terror, it's always wise to reload as slowly as possible.

ninjahunter4348d ago

Kills the suspense, I doubt its possible to be afraid when you can reload your shotgun as fast as you can shoot it. Or when your guns are so well built you can gun down an entire enemy squad before they even grab their guns. Youve probably seen most of the footage for this game, im seeing alot of slaughter the enemy and dont worry about getting hurt.

cant wait to see some PS3 or 360 gameplay, long live the metro!

nirosan4348d ago

Do you guys think this game will Coop?...Game looks really cool.

N4G-er4348d ago

There will probably be parts when the player is alone, which won't work all that well for co-op.

nirosan4348d ago

Oh I see that's true. Either way game looks amazing...will be buying it for PC.

Itll be a great day when this is released. I loved the first game.

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.

kevco3377d 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!

anast76d 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

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.
