Metro 2033 $5 on Gamersgate (steam registerable)

Great game, worth well more than a fiver. Go get it everyone.
 
I really want to play it, but I'm a complete girl when it comes to scary games :(
 
have it all ready but its definitely worth it! still need to finish it but it would crash on my older PC so I'm iffy on playing it again on my new laptop but yet again I also have it on the 360 (bought it for like $9 used) so I have that option as well
 
Damn, I do want this game, but my PC struggles to run it...
 
It's not scary. At least, not if you're not a 6 year old girl.

I actually just finished the book after having it forever today while sitting waiting at MEPS.
 
Definitely not a scary game, and well worth $5.
 
Bleh... I forgot about this yesterday becase I ended up napping. Oh well. I did buy the section 8 map packs because I'm stupid and wil try again to play with the 20 or so people that play. There may be more now that there was a Steam sale though. I can only hope.


I really wish after some period of time every game went F2P that was dying off. Section 8 is a pretty solid multiplayer shooty party but it was marketed awkwardly.
 
It's still 10€ for me. I guess it's the normal euro price for them.
 
I just bought it and I feel like a thief.

Edit: btw, it's 2,50€ in euroland.

Oops, those darn Australian American dollars. Foiled again!
 
Last Light comin' out soon. Trying to get hype I assume.
 
Makes sense. I'm still lookin forward to the 2034 translation (whenever it decides to be done) but it's supposedly not a sequel to 2033 (just Hunter's perspective on what happened). So I guess LL is the only thing to be of that nature.
 
2,50€ again.

So much THQ games on daily deals etc lately and now this week event? :p

From what I understand 2034 isn't really a book either, it's more of an experiment of the writer.

As for Last Light, I am still slightly worried that they will make the game more action-focused.
 
Does anybody else have stuttering issues with it? I have a Radeon 6850 and 4 gigs of ram, and after about 1 minute of play it'll start ... juddering every four or five seconds. FPS is usually in the 40s-50s, but the stutter makes it lag like balls. Ultimate balls. Which is a shame, because I'm really enjoying the game - it started happening just when I met the Nazis.

I heard the author is involved in the development (according to wiki), so I'm not too worried about that.

For those in the know, how does this compare to Stalker?

It's a different game overall. It does have survival and rationing of parts (in the ranger modes) if you want to survive. But it's a lot more linear. Worth finding out for yourself for $5 :P

I can't vouch for your card but try updating drivers (or rolling back even), that's usually the case whenever that's happened to me.
 
Metro is a corridor shooter, Stalker is a sandbox game.

Hmm?

Hmm, it's kinda unclear, this is the last preview I recall reading on the game.

http://www.joystiq.com/2011/05/31/metro-last-light-preview/

"Since novelist Dmitry Glukhovsky's original sequel to Metro 2033, titled cleverly enough Metro 2034, didn't follow the same story, the team at 4A opted to handle writing duties in-house. "It's an original story that leads on from the end of 2033," Beynon told us. "The author of the original book actually wrote a pseudo-followup called 2034 which is a very different style of book entirely. He kind of describes it as an art-house thriller where the first one was perfect material for a video game." So instead, we're back in the Moscow Metro as Artyom, the unassuming protagonist from the first game."
 
I wish it was a prequel (you know why), but I'm glad Khan is returning back for the sequel. He's the Father Grigori of Metro 2033.
