FruityGamers:
Horror Just Doesn't Sell
Metro 2033 was released in early 2010 for the Xbox 360 and PC. As an adaptation from a novel, the game didn't garner too much hype before release, other from some diehard horror fans. The game managed to not only capture a good combination of FPS and horror, but it made you feel like a part of this post-apocalyptic world. It truly was an experience that was refreshing, at times, freaky, and a lot of fun.
A look back at 4A Games' admirably consistent post-apocalyptic shooter franchise.
Metro 2033 mechanics that would adapt perfectly to VR, and the upcoming Metro Awakening by Vertigo Games this year.
The Metro video game series started with a humble b-list title, before building a strong fanbase and becoming a pioneer in the industry.
THQ are the idiots who refused to promote Metro-2033
Man, I've been wanting to get this game for a long time, I really need to bite the bullet and grab it, especially considering how cheap it is now.
Bought it on sale not too long ago. Aside from the lack of firepower, it is a good game.
Haven't had much time to dive into it though with my backlog continuously increasing over these last few weeks.
