Metro 2033

[Corsair]

Who else here has read the translated (or not, for those who can read Cyrillic) book Metro 2033 and is TOTALLY pumped for the upcoming game?

(Maj.Archer, don't be angwy!)

Looks Interesting

I like the idea of Ammo as Currency
From a article i read on IGN or Destructoid, I forgot.

But as of now, my computer cant run it. :(

That looks incredibly awesome.
Games have a lack of good writing nowadays... but this is based off of a book. I'll see if I can't find one (might have to find an English translation) and read it before I look into the game, so I can compare them. I hope it does it justice... we could definitely use better writing in games.

Some games with good writing:

Mass Effects
STALKER games (Kind of corny at times, but overall, a good story.)
Dragon Age: Origins (Love character depth)

Anyway, this game. I'm very excited for this game, although the story is kind of spoiled by the book. >.<

Looks cool. Reminds me of S.T.A.L.K.E.R.

I dont know really...at first I was like yay this is awesome. But now ive sort of lost interest :unsure:

Might buy it when price goes down.

I need to read the book. I heard that the game will just be the book in player format, though.

Isn't the game based on a book that was writen along time ago? If so- I should read the book.

[Corsair]

The book was written quite a while ago- and yes, Jake, this will be a Book-Game translation, the developers themselves stated that it will be a strictly linear game, with an emphasis on storytelling and frantic action. Linear isn't bad, but you likely won't be able to explore Russian catacombs like in STALKER.

Yes I'm here. I was about to make a thread exactly like this when I saw yours.
And yes, I've pre-ordered the english book.
Costed me ?48, But It will be worth every cent. (I hate living in this far, far, far, far, faraway land.)
