    These paintings of contemporary Moscow are stunning in their realism, but what do they have to do with the apocalypse or science fiction? O_o #metro2033

    @ParryLost: The game is based on the Russian science fiction novel "Metro 2033", a rather dystopian post-apocalyptic underground adventure in the depths of the Moscow metro. Don't know if the book will come out in English as well #metro2033

    There's a trailer for this on Xbox Live. It tells you next to nothing about the gameplay, but does a great job of setting up the mood. I'm looking forward to seeing more.

    Also, notice how it's post-apocalyptic but doesn't limit the pallet to brown and gray? That's all I want, some grace notes of color, some contrast. Usually when I mention this, the reply is something like, "It's the apocalypse! I guess you want it to be all rainbows and kittens?" (no offense temporal sword). Granted that's only concept art, and it's hard to tell how the actual game's going to look.

    Looks cool. And now I have even more to read. I really need to join a readers anonymous group. #metro2033

    @RandomFrequentFlierDent: We'll have to ask TemporalSword. I spent my grocery money on books. Who needs food when there are books to read and comments to post. #metro2033

    @LittleDragon: Fear not, the English translation is still in the works.
    Unless you read Russian, which would be pretty awesome. #metro2033

    I'm going to make a post-apocalyptic story where everything is sprinkles and bunnies. No more desolation. #metro2033
