The game had many good ideas but it felt like there was something missing

We've always considered Metro 2033 one of the previous generation's most underrated games. Sure it had its share of problems; the stealth aspect could definitely have been better and the user interface was a bit too messy for its own good.

The video games industry is such an interesting place to watch trends appear and see how they grow or fail. Case in point – video game remasters that began to appear towards the latter half of the last generation's life.

Some games are about people--their struggles, their hopes, their dreams, their powers. Other games are about systems and logic. Blocks fall from above and you maneuver them into place, you twist dials into the correct pattern, or you collect enough currency until you can afford a stronger helmet or...

Adjustments to visuals and interface make the included games seem like two halves of one whole; Fantastic atmosphere soothes the dread with droplets of violence and hope; Great pacing allows the chill to seep into you before action erupts; Weapons make you feel just potent enough to have a chance in...

The AI can be heavily exploited; Some silly and distracting narrative events

Excellent game for an amazing price. This set comes with both the original Metro 2033 and the sequel Last Light. Both games come with all DLC to date in this redux edition. As far as bang for buck goes this game gives you a lot of action for your money.

Very solid game.

When the original Metro 2033 came out in 2009 it was somewhat of a benchmark for high-end gaming rigs, so naturally I gave it a go to see how it would run. What I didn't expect is that I would get so engrossed with the game that I would ultimately end up finishing it.

Very atmospheric world | Solid stealth gameplay | Two great games on one disc

There is still the occasional glitch

More than just a coat of new paint.

This is how a remaster of a game should be. Great lighting effects, great atmosphere and great story. Picked it up on PS4 and very glad I did. Plus you get two great games for one price.

The graphics are greatly improved over the PS3 and 360 version but the sounds have not been improved. I found the gunfire to be a bit flat and your foot steps make the unrealistic clicking noise carried over from the previous gen versions. If you haven't played the games they're immersive, atmospheric narrative driven, but linear shooters. I personally adore the setting and concept but didn't like the gameplay. It had too many scripted sections, too many dead if you're spotted stealth sections, and too much of the time you're being led, and hurried along, by an NPC. All I wanted to do was explore the tunnels and stations, alone and in my own time killing mutants. And then there's the awful gas mask mechanic which ruins the above ground sections, which are the only open areas of the games because you have to rush through them as quickly as possible or you'll run out of filters and have to restart the chapter. But I will definitely be buying Metro Exodus.
