    Loved this game. This was a surprise hit for me as I didn't have any expectations. It felt like Half-Life again - monsters, humans and a long linear story line that is full of surprises. It's great.

    jogo excelente, otimos graficos, ambientação extremamente tensa, é uma lição de remasterização e um otimo jogo, com otimo clima de terror, ação tudo misturado na dose certa, não tem como por defeito nesse jogo.

    esse tipo de jogo esta em falta no mercado, Metro é um jogo de qualidade extrema.

    Найкраща українська гра, просто з гарнішою графікою. Але було б крутіше, якщо б ті хто вже має гру, просто одержали Редукс версію задарма (так як з Відьмаком 2 було). Але гра 1010

    Excellent remaster of two great singleplayer games. Played both originally on the Xbox 360 and now on the Xbox One and wow, what a difference. The main difference is of course that both games are in 1080p and have 60fps. Besides the graphical upgrade the gameplay feels so much better, especially in Metro 2033. That said, Metro Redux is a musthave for any FPS lover!

    Giving this game a perfect 10. These game are survival horror done right on FPS. Last Light was one of my fav games of the year so it came as quite the surprise when I get it plus the original all for under a regular game price. Do yourself a favor and check this out!

    Another great remaster . This bundle was well worth the R500 that I paid for it . The gameplay is very fun as you play the role of a Russian who lives in the Metro . The stealth mechanics for this game is good which makes the stealth enjoyable . Both of these games have replay value

    The enhanced version of a game that was already a masterpiece. Although loss of some options (such as bayonets) is disappointing, this is a truly worthy remaster.

    This is the best remaster I have seen. On Xbox 360 these was amazing games and now are even better. Story is great I love it. Last light story is weaker but still good. I like how both games look same. You can play it both stealth (more survival mode) and rambo (more spartan mode) style and for good and bad ending.

Ranger hardcore is great mode when you don't have hud and can check your stuff just in diary. Everyone is also more powerful that make from this game big challenge. This is just single-player game which I prefer more. There is just one thing that isn't so good and so that Artyom doesn't talk. At the end this are really good games and second best FPS I played.… Expand

    Metro Redux is the remakes for the first two Metro 2033 games that were released on last gen systems. What started out as an under-the-radar survival horror FPS has turned into one of the most atmospheric games I've ever played. While it's not perfect, the game is easily one of my favorite games I've played in awhile.

What started out as an under-the-radar survival horror FPS has turned into one of the most atmospheric games I've ever played. While it's not perfect, the game is easily one of my favorite games I've played in awhile.
    The two games here are fairly different. While the first game introduces you to the world and characters of the series, the second game really lets loose the shackles on the world and gives you a memorable plot filled with characters that were well suited for the world they live in. The Metro games are set in a post-apocalyptic Moscow in the year 2033. Humans have to live underground in the Metro stations underneath the city itself to avoid radiation poisoning. Both games work very well to deliver a great story, moreso the second game than the first, and both really try to put you a realistic situation when you encounter some of the hideous monsters in the game. The survival horror parts of the game are really well done and do an adequate job of dealing out the scares while immersing you in the dangers of every little thing you encounter. The game really sucks you in and tries to keep you firmly in the belief that, no matter comes, you really can't do much of anything in the long term to save anything. It becomes the players job to push forward to hopefully find a way to save the human race. It's really good and the main character you play as through the game narrates the story as you go along. He does an admirable job in keeping the suspense going, even through the down times when you're in a town resupplying. Pretty much everything that deals with the story is wonderful and very suspenseful.
    The problems with the game lie in more of a technical design. While Metro 2033 is really old at this point, the second game, Last Light, was only released last year. However, neither game looks very good in the graphical department. In fact, both games look like they'd be at peace as a high-end PS2 game IMO, obviously moreso 2033 than Last Light since it is quite a bit older. Plus, getting English voice actors to play people with Russian accents was not a very good idea. Most of the characters in the game come off either over-the-top in their delivery or just phoning it in. It probably would have been better to just let everyone speak Russian with subtitles or lose the accents then leave us with what they gave us.
    Neither of these things are much of a reason not for me to recommend this game though. It's wonderful and I will be recommending it to anyone I know plays games in the future. Also, one final note: While children should not be playing these games in the first place as they deal with very serious topics and are very bloody, Metro: Last Light has a pretty good amount of Nudity in it, and at fairly surprising times. This is a warning for anyone who might be offended by something like that in their video games.    … Expand

    I never played metro redux before buying a used copy on eBay. It is an impressive and beautiful game. All around I can feel the dedication that the developers put into making the original computer game. The AI is reflexive on hardcore mode they put up a fight. I recommend the game even if it is a used game. Add it to your collection and rock on.

Metro 2033 may be a few years old, but you couldn't tell with the remastered version, which features a graphics upgrade and some nice gameplay improvements. The visuals are great...the lighting in particular. And the need to manage your resources (ammo, gas mask filters, the gas mask themselves as they suffer damage, med kits) as well as recharge pieces of kit just adds to the level of immersion....fantastic.

    If the accents bother you, which is a silly complaint, switch the spoken language to Russian and keep the subtitles in English. But you'll miss out on the side conversations that flesh out the game world. You're rewarded for taking the time to listen in, whether it's ovehearing a guard sympathize with people looking for news regarding their loved ones....or a neo-nazi justifying the murders he's committed in the past....There's a full blown society represented here, and they've done a spectacular job of paying homage to the source material.

    Take the time to explore. You won't run entirely out of ammo (or filters) if you take the time to explore, picking the pockets of dead soldiers or uncovering the keys needed to unlock hidden safes full of cash and supplies. At one point I had almost 500 units of currency and when I reached the next safe zone (station) I went on a mad shopping spree.

    The guns are well-designed and inventive. They have a wonderful "junky" appearance that supports the theory that they've been constructed by people forced to scavenge through the rubble of a dead city. But they're lethal, and have an appreciable kick (although I turned the vibration to "high" before I was happy with the recoil). Slap an IR scope and silencer to the Bastard SMG and you may never feel the need to upgrade to anything else.

    The stealth mechanics are well done, and the AI is better than most recent FPS titles.

    The only thing that frustrated me was the lack of documentation regarding the controls. For Xbox players, to access your throwing knives and grenaders, etc, hold down the Y button to access that navigation screen and hit the right bumper to actually USE what you've selected. Hit the Left bumper to wipe the gore and condensation from your mask. I had to poke around before I uncovered those bits.

    Regardless, here's the thing -- the people behind Metro 2033 and Metro Last Light introduced something DIFFERENT when these games first came out (imagine that, not another CoD or BF clone). They offered something fresh -- and desperately needed in a genre that's frankly been done to death. This redux edition is a reminder (a polished reminder) of how well they succeeded. Snap this up. Ignore the haters...they're failing to appreciate something special.

    Whatever these guys produce next, I'm buying.    … Expand

    While some may say that COD or Battlefield are the best FPS' to play, I would have to disagree 100%. Sure, they for the most part have slightly better fluidity when it comes to the game play, but what makes the Metro series special is a mixture of the shooting, the stealth elements, the atmosphere, and the story. I wouldn't call it a horror game, but it definitely has an eerie feel to the environments. The story is pretty good with the whole Dark One's concept and the factions fighting for control of the Metro system. Nothing too revolutionary, but it keeps you engaged nonetheless. The weapon selection is pretty cool and the fact that you can customize them is a nice bonus.
    I will say that this game is not forgiving on the higher difficulties, but that makes the game appeal to both casual and more hardcore gamer's. What keeps this game pack from getting a perfect score is the short campaign is both games and the lack of graphical improvement on Last Light. Overall, these are slight nitpicks that shouldn't keep you from playing both games. Highly recommended.    … Expand

    Metro Redux is an excellent package it contains both Metro 33 and Metro Last Light. I never played the games on the 360 but when I heard about it for the Xbox One it caught my attention and I wasn't disappointed. Metro has an interesting story, the post apocalyptic setting can be spooky and the variety of enemies is interesting ranging from human to monsters.

    There’s no doubt that Metro Redux represents real value for money. Neither game is perfect and Metro 2033 does show signs of aging, despite the improvements, but that doesn’t mean that it isn’t an entirely playable game which serves as a sort of hors d'oeuvre to Last Light’s main course.

    Metro Redux sets the bar high for what a HD remaster should be – not only a visual upgrade, but a gameplay touch up as well. Metro 2033 benefits the most from this, and owners of Last Light will have a tough time finding many improvements. Still, if you’re yet to visit the bleak world of the Moscow underground, there hasn’t been a better time.
