83 of 97 people found the following review helpful Great Game...., By = Fun: This review is from: Metro 2033 (DVD-ROM) I read a of the reviews and was very skeptical. However, I am happy with the game and highly recommend it.I go into every game without any pre-conceived notion of what I think they should be. Other reviewers whining about Stalker this... Fallout that... what a crock. Each game should stand on it's own and this one does. Sure it isn't perfect. I have only played a couple I thought were, so it's easy to want to set the bar to high. However, this is an extremely engrossing game. The graphics are awesome. Also, I guess if you are using an old Atari you might have problems running it. I am having no problem playing it on a 3 year old 2.3GHz dual core with 4GB Memory and a GTX280 card. I have the game set a step below the highest settings allowed on at 28" monitor at 1920x1200. The graphics on this are quite simply, very immersive and extremely well done. You really feel like you are in the subways. Next, the complaints that it is linear are tiresome also...

The game is based off of a book (which I have not read), and you can kind of get that story-book feel in the game. I thought the game story was great. I've never seen graphics like this before, and the battle scenes and monsters are exciting. The monsters are great and the action is great. The downfall, in my opinion, is that the game is too linear. Personally, I would have liked to explore each underground town and return to each underground town whenever I wanted. Free exploration of the towns was a must, but the gamer is too restricted. The develops keep pushing you along (and that is unfortunate. It took a lot away from the game). Also, you can't lean around corners too shoot at enemies or to look for monsters. That is dumb. The AI could have also been better, but I've seen worse (Empire Total War for instance).Overall, however, the adventure, the story, the...

I bought my copy on Steam and was able to download/install it without any issues. Here are my machine specs:eVGA GTX 260 4GB RAM Windows Vista x64 Core2Quad Q6600 I can run the game at 1280x1024 on DX10 "very high" settings and it runs great. It is a BIT strange to not be able to tweak individual settings (you have to select "low, med, high..." etc, but it doesn't bug me that much. If you were a fan of the really cool, atmospheric underground parts in Shadow of Chernobyl, you will love this game. It is a very immersive single-player experience. The character models are top-notch, the textures look great and the lighting and graphical effects are spot-on. The English dialogue is very good. I haven't finished the story yet, but so far it has been great as well. I think you'll find that a lot of people complaining about this game will whine about it feeling like a... Read more |
