Joe Trotter of One More Castle writes: 'The world of Metro 2033 is a particularly grim one, ripe with destitution, misery and human suffering. Based on the novel of the same name by Dmitry Glukhovsky, Metro 2033 the game shares with its brethren the post-apocalyptic ruins of underground and overground Moscow as the background for the unsettling events of the narrative. As is obvious from the name, much of the action takes place within the dank and twisted tunnels of the Moscow metro network. One would expect limitations within this setting, but there is a surprising amount of variety as you make your way through (and over) the nightmarish underworld in what is an involving but flawed shooter.'
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.
Definitey one of the most underrated games of 2010.
The mechanics could have used a bit of tweaking, but the same goes for The Darkness, which was also brilliant and underrated.
The PC version rivaled Crysis mods. It was gorgeous! The 360 version was no slouch either though.
My fav 360 Exclusive
AHA! Sorry guys, it isn't on the PS3, my bad, changed it now. I hope you all enjoyed the review as much as i enjoyed playing through the game.
