Metro 2033 is FPS / survival horror based on the novel with the same name, written by Russian author Dmitry Glukhovsky. The game was developed since 2005 by 4A Games in the Ukraine, but it was released only in March 2010 for Xbox 360 and PC, after more than 5 years. In all this time Metro 2033 changed a lot: the graphic engine shown in the screenshots from 2006 had to be updated with a more powerful one, more details and characters were added to the explorable areas.

Metro 2033 Gameplay (2007)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2FFa7DhXa5s
The early Metro 2033 ran on the Xray engine, the same engine made for STALKER
Pure (The PSP/PS3 Magazine) Issue 10 had this down as a PS3 title due for release end of 2008.
This i guess from a 4A games PR release.
Wonder if it ever got beyond planned stages as i know initally developers were’nt fans of the PS3 hardware, yet the sequel (which was fantastic, played and completed both, 1st on 360 ) arrived on PS3 so they changed their minds.
But would be interesting to know if any early attempts were actually made to bring this to PS3.
