I may have yet to play first person shooter Metro 2033, but this I can appreciate nonetheless. Take a look at these comparison photos of in-game screen shots and photos of landmarks from around Moscow, where Metro 2033 takes place. I wonder what it's like to be Russian and play this game? As a native of Seattle the closest I have to that experience is Alan Wake, but I once gave my best friend a copy of Fallout 3 after she came back from an internship in D.C., and playing through it had quite an effect on her. She stlll talks about it, years later. It really makes you appreciate the effort that goes behind recreating the atmosphere and setting of real-life locations in video games.
