Metro Redux Takes Just 17GB Of Your Hard Drive

The Xbox One website has just released details of the install sizes of Metro Redux, and its not that big.

[ThatEnglishDude]

Not bad! They're great games, too.

[LavaLampGoo]

Yeah I absolutely loved them the first time around, looking forward to 2033 if slightly better gun handling...

[Alexious]

They're fantastic games, especially Last Light.

[Daniel_Potter]

Last Light was more of a dumb down for me
first of all, that interface
and second, even though, in LL, you could extinguish almost any light source, i think the stealth system was dumbed down as well. You see, Metro 2033 was more like Thief in terms of the stealth system, other then your visibility, you also had to watch out for the noise you make. in 2033 there were a lot of times you had sound traps or shattered glass, which could alarm your enemies. in LL there were almost no traps of any sort.
Or when looting bodies. in LL you automatically pick up all the loot, while in 2033 you have to manually pick up every item.

Sure, LL had many features that weren't present in 2033, like the arachnids, the Swamp level and the attachments system, but they sacrificed immersion.

I hope so. This will be my first time playing them.

[Meltic]

havent played them. Is it Worth getting on the ps4 ?

[Angerfist]

Absolutely. Played both on 360 back then and the graphics and atmosphere were amazing. This will be even better:D

[JJShredder]

Very overlooked games. Console-only folks are in for a treat!

[Ares84HU]

Just 17GB.... Hahahahahahahaha that's funny.

[Alexious]

Don't know why you think it's funny. 17GB for a next gen game is quite low.

[DuneBuggy]

Its amusing to me when I think about my mid 90s Windows 95 PC. It had a 2.1 gb hard drive.

[elhebbo16]

two points:

1. Game size is irrelevant when it comes to defyning a game as 'Next gen'. example: Wolfenstein is 50GB, Metro LL is only 8GB yet it looks more 'next gen' than the former because of its dynamic lighting and physx.

2. The games are technically last gen HD ports (for console), what do you expect.

[rawshack]

im no expert but most of data will be on the disk i think the 17 gb will be used to prevent load times .

[n4rc]

Pretty sure my first PC had like 20kb lol

The ol commadore64! The beastly 1mhz CPU and 64k of ram lol

[DuneBuggy]

That was my first computer with a hard drive lol..My Coleco Adam with the tape deck storage was my first.

[Angerfist]

It's also 2 Next Gen Games ;)

[seanpitt23]

Well these 500GB hard drives are a joke for next gen I have almost used mine up and it's another 50GB for TLOU R we needed a TB at least. Just glad you can change the hard drive on the ps4 quite easily.

[Ares84HU]

This is exatcly why I find it funny but people read a comment and don't even think just click on disagree like lemmings.

[kingduqc]

not having over 4tb of hard drive space

hahahahahahha that's funny

[rawshack]

what ever it is im looking forward to this.ive allways liked the history behind the secret metro tunnels under moscow

[heisenberguk]

Seems low for 2 games!

[theshredded]

I'm glad,will buy this digitally instead of that behemoth the last of us download.
Love hardworking and diligent devs

[hafitz]

I think they just did a SweetFX..that explains the low disk space...what about Nvidia PhysX? Will it be in as the ones released in the original Metro? Or will it be better?

If there is no PhysX included, then I don't see the value to get this one. I'd might as swell use a Sweetfx on the original and still running on 1080p and 60fps.

[Ghost_Nappa]

Thats...impressive.

[LAWSON72]

Beautiful... a dev that knows how to compress a game apparently it's a rare talent
