Solution 2

The "Windows Store" option is the Metro app (Metro UI is a depreciated term, its now called "Modern UI"). Thanks MS for confusing everybody!

Solution 3

Earlier it was "Metro Style Applications" when it was in beta.
Now MS had released it as "Windows Store Application".
Select Windows Store --> Right side you will be able to see the Templates for developing the Windows8 Apps.

Happy Coding.
