    Metro Redux finally does the series justice on consoles, providing excellent visual and gameplay overhauls to both Metro 2033 and Last Light.

    In the end, it's almost more down to the things 4A did to improve the gameplay that make this pleasantly different pair of shooters stand out in their Redux iteration.

    Playing this for the first time gave me a similar feeling to playing the first Bioshock, where you were scared about what was around the next corner, but still intrigued to find out.

    Metro Redux may not offer much to entice players who have already played and enjoyed these games, but this remastered bundle is the best way for newcomers to experience the thrills and scares of this under-appreciated series.

    We can't wait for the third entry, but this is an excellent return trip to the Metro in the meantime. [Nov 2014, p.70]

    If you haven't played Metro before, now is the time to do it. The series has never been better.

    If you’ve never played Metro before, Redux is absolutely worth getting. The action may not be on par with the genre’s greats, but both games make up for that with atmosphere, exploration and setting. Just be aware that the Redux version of Last Light has few changes compared to the original.

    Having played both Metro 2033 and Last Light on PC i had some reservations about buying a console Version of this game, but there is a weekHaving played both Metro 2033 and Last Light on PC i had some reservations about buying a console Version of this game, but there is a week gap between having destiny in my hands and now so i thought i would see what the Xbox One could bring to the table when it comes to other shooters like metro, i was not disappointed

    To start with they have given you rather a lot of choice on how you would like to play the game giving you an option between playing in the vein of 2033 or Last Light, and this will give you a lean towards how your preferd style of game played, very good for them who had a preference, they have scaled up 2033 very well, and even last light which is only really a year old has had some very welcome touch ups to caricatures and environments. the console version really gives the pc version a run for it's money

    the fact that this game is only year old seems to have resonated with the developers because for people who have never played Metro before £15.99 is a steal if you only want to play one to start with and even both together is a great price

    Very impressive game still a second time round
    satisfied with the purchase

    Haven't played the original only this remastered version.

    Very cool setting based on the books. I really enjoyed the setting and story it
    Haven't played the original only this remastered version.

    Very cool setting based on the books. I really enjoyed the setting and story it explained enough but also left things for you to speculate about. Very cool design of the levels and human life underground, weapons have an improvised look, this seems very realistic and everything together creates an immerse experience. Cool enemies and different difficulties. The levels have some alternative paths to allow both run and gun and stealth gameplay although not in every level. Weapon customization was really good.

    A few thing that where annoying where some unskippable POV cut-scenes and NPC's blocking your path that don't matter in the first play-through but lessen the replay value, should have an option to skip that in a second playthrough.

    The aiming/shooting mechanics in the game feel not as polished as some AAA title but after an hour you get used to it and there are good customization options in-game specifically for that so only a minor gripe.

    Overall a really cool experience and well worth the money IMHO.
