Very tempted by this. Is it worth it though? Online healthy?

I have the game (had since launch) and quite like it... It's a slower type of game than other fps. However last time I went on (month ago IIRC) there didn't seem to be many populated servers and when I did get on one it was bots not people!

Just my 2p, but its a shame as it is a good game.

Seems like I was one of the few who didn't like Dead Island.

I found it so confusing, and I normally like games like that :/ Might be me and my simple mind, but I found it to dull so to say. Basically just run around, kill zombies, complete the objective, and repeat for 100 times (or as many missions I did).

Was poor imo. Would maybe recommend of it was under 5 quid, but more than that, I don't see it worth it.

I got Metro 2033 yesterday for £2.08 from Gamestop, will be fun to see how far I can push my Oc'd GTX460 768mb at 1080p.

The price on Gamestop for Metro 2033 seems to be changing constantly, I just kept refreshing the page until it appeared at £2.00 again

It wouldn't be worth it if it was free. If I could give it away I would, it's an insult to have to see it in my games list every time I load Steam.

Have you tried maxing out Metro before?
Think my GTX680 averaged 40 FPS.

Should have added res: 1920 x 1080

About 50FPS, according to anandtech - with AAA enabled and DoF disabled, I believe...

I was running 1920x1080, everything maximum and I got a measly 40 FPS.

 

[khevolution]

WOW i remember looking at prices for that not so long ago, and it was about £10-£13

Thanks for getting in touch to ask about the estimated dispatch of your order.

I'm really sorry that this hasn't yet been dispatched. Fallout 3: Game Of The Year Edition [PC] is on special order for you with our Supplier but at this time they're unable to give me a date for when they'll have it back in stock. In the meantime our Buyers are trying to obtain this for you from other Suppliers.

Not sure if I will use zavvi again

If you'd turned Advanced Depth of Field off... that would have shot up to ~60FPS & I can't seem to notice the difference in image quality.

I'll keep that in mind cheers.

Thanks for that. It should look awesome on the Benq XL2420t.

Had the GOTY edition for about a year, payed £25 for it and still haven't completed it.

Get some good mods installed, I remember a Fallout 3 Mods thread was around somewhere, and enjoy an awesome game.
