![]() ![]() Similar technical showcases on PC such as Crysis 3 and Battlefield 3 haven't necessarily fared well in the transition to PS3 and 360 in the past, with effects pared-back or removed, native resolutions dropped, tearing added, and even a locked 30FPS being an untenable target once the going gets tough. Given how deeply current mid-to-low GPUs are confounded by Metro 2033's rigorous "Frontline" benchmark sequence, the idea that console platforms can handle the more advanced Last Light at even basic settings is an uncertain one. However, this sequel crucially marks the Kiev-based developer's first foray into the world of Sony's PlayStation 3 - giving us a conventional simultaneous triple-format launch. The last game ensures that the prowess of the 4A engine is a known quantity on PC and 360. Building on its in-house 4A Engine that debuted with cult hit Metro 2033, it's something of a technological wonder, with DirectX 11 features like tessellation, cutting-edge lighting effects and advanced PhysX realising its barren, Pripyat-inspired environments. But sometimes you just gotta go artsy-fartsy.With the release of Metro: Last Light, developer 4A Games brings to the table the most technically dazzling game since Crysis 3 first graced our screens three months ago. 2033 feels very humble and basic and I love it for those merits. There is so much symbolism and subtext in Last Light. Last Light just feels bigger and "more important" to me, even tho that 2033 is technically more important in the real world context. Maybe it's an unfair comparison because when we finish Last Light we remember everything we went through up to this point and not only the events of Last Light. But I did not nearly feel as moved when the 2033 credits rolled. 2033 is very basic and tells a basic story and that is fine as well. But Last Light has that overall feeling of "Greatness" to it. The gameplay (of the Redux versions) is the exact same so I obviously can't judge that. It's an awesome and thrilling romp to play them within the span of 3 days (which I did).īut overall I gotta day that Last Light is better. Noticing all the small similarities and some of the huge differences they have regarding the story. That's why it's so cool to play them back to back. ![]() The Redux version helps to even out differences between the games and knits them tightly together, which I really like. It's still a great and memorable game and established the game universe. As I said my memory of the overall story was a bit blurry so I expected many moments of Last Light to occur while I played 2033, only to notice: "Whoops, that was in the next game!" The giant bear, the Baby Dark One, some of the best moments with Khan and the list could go on and on. So when I finished with Last Light today I was surprised to see how many memorable moments and awesome levels are actually part of Last Light. My first back to back walkthrough has been over a year ago so the events of both games kinda blurred together when thinking about the story in retrospective. My first back to back walkthrough was on PC, this one on Ps4. Today I finished playing 2033 and Last Light back to back for the second time.
