How is the first one?

It was a cool rental.They did something really different with the ammo.
You could use either the cheap but plentiful boot-leg ammo OR the rare & expensive but powerful ammo.
You also had to keep your oxygen mask in working order.
The Air is toxic so a working mask was essential
Gamefly it bra.

I second that! It was a cool game well worth the rental and time!

Out of 7 Reviews of MLL, the average score is 81 out of 100


Here is one:

A lot of Western post-apocalyptic fiction is either kind of goofy and self-aware (Fallout) or so unrelentingly bleak that every installment should end with the protagonists being put on suicide watch (“The Walking Dead”). In Metro, the designers have put a lot of thought into how people would survive, how the culture would evolve, and how they’d react to the environment. It’s a well-constructed, populated world that feels very alive and real, particularly when, say, you unexpectedly end up purchasing a lap dance.

Even the simpler stations, ones that you visit for all of ten minutes before setting out on the next leg of your trip, are packed with people who are going about the business of living. There’s a long sequence set underneath the Bolshoi Theater that’s both pretty funny and incredibly sad simultaneously, especially if you hang around to watch the show.

Whether or not you’re going to like Last Light, though, is entirely down to what you’re looking for in a game. Most other single-player shooters coddle the player in one way or another, whether it’s by lenient difficulty or by allowing you to eventually build yourself up into some kind of murder engine.

Last Light is a punishing, hardcore experience that isn’t quite like anything else on the shelves right now, and if you go into it looking for exactly that, it delivers in spades. If you pick it up looking for a quick weekend’s shoot-’em-up fun (or a lap dance), it will crush your spirit and laugh at your pain. You’ve been warned.

I clicked on this thread thinking this was another BF thread. Something like, "so I was playing Metro last night". Shows what I know. :covri:
