    Got this on the PS4 pro on PSN sale so going to give it a bash later. Any tips for a metro newbie? Heard it looks great on the pro

    Metro is no run and gun, resources are limited, take your time and nail head shots. Fairly tough but excellent game.

    The Enhanced Edition is out now, free if you already own the original - it will show up in your library as a separate game with a completely unique install so you can remove the old one safely. A ray-tracing capable GPU is a hard requirement. I'm only at the first open section again but it is definitely prettier, I think that is more to do with DLSS2 now instead of 1 on the original version, though the lighting is also better with 100% RT generation and breathtaking at times. What I'm most impressed with is how much better it runs. The original @4k/basic RT/DLSS1 on my older 2080 was playable...just...with some nasty FPS drops probably averaging in around 45fps. It's now on a 3090 but even with the additional full RT and newer textures etc. , basically everything on Ultra, it's running nicely at around 80FPS with no stuttering or other annoying issues. Also native Windows Spatial Audio support is beautifully handled with the Dolby Atmos headphone plugin.
    I did one playthrough on the original and was ready to start the DLCs when news of this came out a while back so have held off until now. Looking forward to diving back in properly this weekend.

    I enjoyed it and the American DLC


    Was playing it on and off until early this year when I got a 3080

    Damn its a good looking game.

    Really want to get this but it's a bit dear for a game that's 2 years old. Still waiting for a more significant price drop.
    Looks like a more tolerable Far Cry 2.


    €11.99 on Steam right now if you're on pc, great game. Could do with a discount on PS though.
