Interesting. This is not the first time Metro 2033 has been free and I picked it up from such a deal many years ago. I checked to see which version it was and it turns out it's the original which has been de-listed. Guess I got lucky, but thanks to the philosophy of endless remakes, everyone else gets stiffed or they have to pirate.
It used to go free a lot back in the day before Redux, simply because it was a cult hit slav game. Which meant every other week it was either 1-3$ or just straight free.
Last Light being very normie friendly made it go somewhat mainstream, and that meant that Redux was never quite as cheap or easy to get.
