Two hot launch trailers exploded onto the interwebs this morning, both equally exciting for two completely different reasons. Deep Silver dropped the ceremonial launch trailer for Metro: Last Light, one that has some intense vibes with it. I’ve waited a long time for Metro 2033‘s successor, so expect a review very soon!

Metro: Last Light dropped it’s “Salvation” trailer this morning and it’s, not sunshine and rainbows.

No actual gameplay sneaks into this trailer, just hints of the games dark story, militaristic special forces, and one [...]

Finally after the bevy of live-action trailers 4A Games has released a new gameplay trailer for their much anticipated Metro: Last Light.

THQ announced that Metro Last Light would not be shipping with multiplayer recently, and I think it’s a bold move on their part. In a world of Battlefields, Call of Dutys, Medal of Honors, and Halos, for the last 10 years + we have been living with sub par single player experiences as far as [...]

Moscow in Shambles 2013.

Live Action Metro: Last Light

THQ’s “Enter the Metro” campaign is now in full swing with the release of it’s Metro: Last Light live action short film. Even running less than 5 minutes the movie still gave me goosebumps.
