Steam had a discounted sale on the Metro series last month and bought it, it was a great bargain. I did play Metro 2033 years ago but I got stuck in one part of the game. Now, I got through (shoot where the blobs come from) finally. That and I was low on ammunition.

The game manages to visualize what life is like in tunnels. People live off pork and mushrooms, not the funky kind. It seems you can grow mushrooms in caves. Did not know that. Homes are made from scrap metal and wood. No idea where all the wood comes from. The tunnels, where your character will be using often, are dark and ominous which set a good horror tonne to scare players.

The weapons are original, makeshift weapons and new even to veteran shooters. There are pistols, magnums, rifles, and the awesome bastard gun (see the pic above). There is the gas powered rifles which silently shoots lethal metal pellets. Later in the game, your weapons can be equipped with additional attachments which increases the effective power for your weapon. For stealth missions, there is the throwing knifes to silently take down enemies. If all else fails, use your trusty knife to stab and slash your enemies.
