Rain is no stranger to gaming. It is used effectively in games like Splinter Cell, Heavy Rain (lol), and many others... However, it serves nothing more than an environment feature for us to admire. For now...
Can a game create something as simple as rain and make it something more? Even if it is only for a brief moment? Well, in Metro Last Light; they seem to try that theory out a little bit at a key moment. It serves as a strange addition to a world ravaged and decayed.
You will see what I mean in the video below.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] darthnazgul Halo 3 ODST, despite it's lack of actual rain, managed to use the atmosphere it creates to great effect. Uncharted 2 also used it well. I'm trying to think of more games that use rain well but I can't think of much. Shame, it can be used very well.[/quote] There's rain in ODST, it's just light rain. I really wish that they would have made it rain harder and be more obvious though
