Metro 2033 DLC Now Available - PC Free, Pay on 360

Chalk one up to the traditions of free delivered content to PC games, as the first Metro 2033 DLC has just been released and is available to PC owners free of charge. However, Xbox 360 owners will have to pay 240 MS Points (about $4) because "Microsoft rules mean we have to charge for DLC on Xbox LIVE... they let us set the lowest possible price", or so claims the game's official twitter account.

I'm not sure about that though, as plenty of games have released DLC free of charge on Xbox 360. An any rate, the "Rangler DLC" will offer a new hardened "Ranger" mode which features less ammo, stronger weapons (plus two new), more powerful enemies and no HUD - truly for the hardcore players out there.

Buy now from Green Man Gaming for only GBP£14.99 (USD$4.99 on Steam)!

So I just finished this game the other day and I'm really impressed with it. The Russians really do know how to make good games and they're awesome at programming/coding too because the levels loaded so quick! This game seriously gave me multiple goosebumps and best dark atmosphere I've seen.

I purchased the game off steam and now want to get the downloadable content but it's not on steam. If I get it elsewhere will I still be able to play the DLC since it's all hooked up via steam?

ahh found this

Playing Metro 2033 on PC? No problem, all you need to do is log in to Steam later today and update your copy of Metro 2033. Your game will be updated automatically with the DLC. If the update doesn�t start automatically you may need to restart Steam.

Okay so I did the above, loaded the game cannot find the extra content anywhere. And I never noticed steam downloaded any either.

Anyone else have this issue?
