Have yet to play either in the series but I have them due to being on sale for quite cheap. Should probably start them soon.... Anyway... I am a huge Dark Souls fan. I decided to replay III since the new DLC came out recently, and I am having just as much fun as before. This is a perfect example of each pillar of game design, from enemies and environments, to UI and mechanics, the game executes near perfectly. Combat feels fluid and dynamic with each encounter. The bosses are creative and fun, the best boss in the whole trilogy lies in this game. The soundtrack is also phenomenal with plenty of variation and excitement. I can't sing the praises of this game enough. If any of you have yet to try a souls game... Get in on the action because you won't regret it. The games have been built on a reputation of tough difficulty and little to no hand holding. Even if that turns you off I would still give it a shot. This was easily my game of the year last year, against some tough competition.

I've already played the first game a bit, and that **** is surprisingly hard. Also satisfying when you figure out some 1337 way to deal with a situation other than just a gun fight. My favorite was when I spooked a pack of dogs, which caught the attention of the guys I was trying to sneak around, leading to a pretty awesome melee between the two groups that I roundly ignored as I breezed past them. I really need to play that again.

When you're finished with Metro 2033 I'd highly recommend playing the sequel, Metro: Last Light. It's largely the same but a bit tighter in the gameplay front and less buggy. |

OMG I'm the biggest pussy. I thought Metro 2033 was kind of unnerving. Then for the first time all game I'm doing a mission without a partner and that **** has me moderately freaking out. Hiding like a rat from flying demon things and fear quitting at the same mutant dog thing ambush twice. I don't even think it should be that scary.
