kudos to 4A, great game and I can't wait until those single player DLC packs come out!

ftwrthtx3975d ago

They did a great job on this game.

Salooh3975d ago (Edited 3975d ago )

Good game ^^ , But they need to evolve if they want to be big. I don't think this game fit for next generation though. Make graphics stunning and the gameplay more survival then shooting. I had a few times where i was scared to attack the beasts. I just go to corner and shoot them in there xD . More of this with what i said and they will be famous :) ..

Robbert_jansen3975d ago

wait are you complaining about the graphics?
on one of the most beautiful games of all time?

Salooh3975d ago (Edited 3975d ago )

Some places look good but the art style is too simple in my eyes. I can imagine it much better then this on next generation if they make a new engine and try to make that kind of art style look more realistic with great visuales to improve the look of the gameplay and add more survival stuff to make it scary and hard. Metro have potential to be like TLOU..

I don't mean anything bad toward the game. I love it. This talk is more like a good wish or advice. :)

New engines cost money. LOTS of money.

What they have is good enough. Their focus needs to be doing exactly what they are doing, nothing more.

Throwing money at useless "shiny" stuff kills franchises. They have a formula and it works.

Jovanian 3975d ago

good news, lets hope deep silver know how to manage this gem of a developer 4A games, because so far deep silvers put out nothing but crap

Genuine-User3975d ago

These guys deserve all the success. It was such a dark and gritty 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.

kevco3371d 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!

anast71d ago

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

Bethesda & Xbox To Meet Up With Laid-Off Deep Silver Volition Employees

According to a LinkedIn post, Bethesda and Xbox Game Studio representatives will meet up with Deep Silver Volition employees.

shinoff2183216d ago (Edited 216d ago )

That's pretty cool, but didn't they just lay of 10k as a whole. Reportedly some from the gaming division even.

Confused in pa.

Sonyslave3216d ago

Yes they did , it the circle of life in the tech bizz.

blackblades216d ago

Circle of life of meh games

mkis007216d ago (Edited 216d ago )

This is called good PR. And an opportunity to hire veterans over scrubs.

phoenixwing215d ago

Not to call them scrubs but yeah some veteran devs are more welcome than others with less experience

Flakegriffin214d ago (Edited 214d ago )

You can hire veterans all day long but it’s the talent Microsoft lacks.

Zeref215d ago (Edited 215d ago )

It was mostly outside of gaming. Most of the game studios weren't affected besides 343i and Coalition from what I recall

Charlieboy333215d ago (Edited 215d ago )

But of course. Just look at the latest Saint's Row....that is exactly the level of quality and writing that Xbox strives for these days.

Aloymetal214d ago

Nope, like Redfall, Craig infinite

There u go. This is way more acceptable than buying up studios. Buy individual talent until you strengthen your already owned studios. 👏🏽
