AusGamers recently went hands-on with Metro 2033, an all-new post-apocalyptic shooter from new dev studio, 4A Games (made up of some ex-S.T.A.L.K.E.R. devs), based in the Ukraine.
Opting for a more story-driven experience rather than the free-roaming we've come to expect from the genre (and based on a book of the same name, no less), Metro 2033 draws you into its world through compelling characters, excellent scripting and voice-acting, and engaging gameplay. It's at the same time both exhilarating and unnerving.
You can check out an AusGamers early exclusive in our hands-on preview as well as this new, never-before-seen trailer and a host of all-new screens. Enjoy!

er...did you hear the voice acting in the trailer? That's some of the WORST voice acting in any video game ever made. Obviously you can tell stragiht away the voice over is by someone on their dev team rather than an actual paid actor. It's pretty common with games from that part of the world to have horrendously bad voice acting, and I simply can't understand how ausgamers can say the voice acting is exellent from what we have seen....i mean look at that game that came out last year Darkest of Days.....a great game ruined by horrible voice acting.

And that's not solely directed at ausgamers, for as long as i have read previews they have rarely ever put down games, even when its pretty obvious the game will be s***, hell there are times when you see a glowing preview one week, and the next the actual review totally s**** on it.

Probably very few, as the highly anticipated games - the ones that are typically shown in previews - are typically polished well for a media preview. Hell, look at a game like Alan Wake, where it's been in development hell for years so obviously something is wrong internally but the previews look awesome.
In addition, I'd reckon developers and publishers of really s*** games hold their cards held close to their chest in the hopes that as many people will buy as soon as possible before it's discovered that their newly released game is dongs.

Looking forward to this, but would have been better to see a preview of the PC version, not the crap xbox copy.
