Get The Entire Metro Series For Under $9 Ahead Of Metro 2039’s Release

Get The Entire Metro Series For Under $9 Ahead Of Metro 2039’s Release https://ift.tt/ur157m8 While I’m a fan of the Stalker games, there’s something about the more linear nature and, ironically, on-rails experience that the Metro games deliver. With a tense atmosphere, mutated creatures, and factions split within the underground of a demolished Russia, the Metro series might be some of my favorite FPS games of all time—and with Metro 2039 almost here, now’s the chance to catch up on the series for less than $9. That’s all three of the games released so far. The series starts with Metro 2033 , two decades after an apocalyptic event ended most of mankind and turned the surface into a radioactive wasteland.

It wouldn't be completely accurate to call new Hellraiser a proper reboot--it doesn't attempt to retread any of the ground covered in either the original Clive Barker novella, The Hellbound Heart, or the original movie from 1986.

It's as much a "reboot" as any of the franchise's other installments (there are 10 of them--11 now, counting this one) that tossed out new characters and ideas without so much as a backwards glance to the story put forth across 1, 2 (and 6, kind of, if you want to get technical).
