Hmm...i bet the Wii-U version is the reason for the original delay of Metro:Last Light..

PopRocks3594359d ago

It's a feasible thing to infer. I'd imagine THQ would want every version to sell well.

@NYC_Gamer
Looks like it's not the case because they said they are focusing on current gen and will finish the Wii U version later. I wonder if they are going to improve the Wii U version?

@Hisiru

Improve graphics and/or play around with the new functions like Gearbox is doing with Aliens.

This game got pushed back to spring of 2013 so this article makes no sense. I dont think they are "focusing" on any particular console...its just been that kind of year plagued with delays. I put money on it coming out for all systems at the same time.

Reborn4359d ago

I would assume that would be the case. Doubt they want a poor version being put out.

irishyort4359d ago

Suprised nobody has called "Port" yet!

I guess cause it isn't a Vita, people won't call it one! hahaha

--Onilink--4359d ago

well based of the fact that its coming out in 4 diferent consoles, i would guess its VERY obvious 3 of those will be ports of the main version,which we dont even know for what console is, so there is no need to point out its a port... just saying..

--Onilink--4358d ago

ok... 4 versions ,3 consoles + PC, i thought the point was kinda obvious

irishyort4359d ago

The joke here is the overuse and incorrect use of the word "port" as opposed to just saying multiplatform.

If the same situation was happening to a Vita game as it is with Metro on the WiiU, everyone would be banging on about how bad it is to have a port. Just saying jokes :)

WrAiTh Sp3cTr34358d ago

No, the joke here is you bringing up the Vita to defend it in an article that has nothing to do with it whatsoever.

Hazmat134359d ago

single player FTW! im sure MP will be fun but SP is where its at! unless its co op then i will be awesome.

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.

kevco3385d 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!

anast84d 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.

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.
