Review

 

On the afternoon of April 12 in 2006, a massive explosion shattered the Chernobyl area. The Zone, as the area got to be known, was characterized by anomalous energy disturbances, rendering even the most advanced form of protective suits worthless to would be rescue teams. Months passed and nothing could be done. The military quarantined the area to prevent unauthorized entry and perhaps even reassure the local populace that the area was under control and confinement. Almost 4 years after the initial event, expeditions can now safely traverse several kilometers deep into the Zone. Among these are the Stalkers, poachers that enter the zone searching for artifacts and anomalous formations that are highly sought after by certain organizations and groups.

after 6 years in the making the end result of this game was not perfect imo the weapons look small or squashed if you will. But the graphics of the environment around you is brilliant you will need to patch the game when you buy it as the non patched version is a little buggy it can get a little anoying having to run back and forth to get the missions or rewards and it can be a little easy to get lost of whitch mission you are doing. im running it on 8800 ultra 4gb ram and AMD 5600+ (x2) and can run it on Max graphics with no lag at all allround i would say this game is definitely original and worth every penny (pluss the case is cool)

Customer rating: 4 out of 5 stars Deserve's a place in any FPS fan's collection

Stalker is an excellent game. It has beautiful graphics and most importantly can run fine on the minimum specifications however its truly rewarding with a good gaming pc. The game manages to create an excellent atmosphere drawing you into it and quite possibly making even the less jumpy players jump at good moments.

It may not offer many new elements of game play to your average FPS but it certainly proves a challenge while i liked this element this may put some people off the game relies on you to use a bit of tactics and cover rather than just run and gun.

Prehaps the most annoying part of the game is the travel times of having to run back to collect quest rewards. The game doesn't have the clearest of story lines as it progresses but if you get the best ending of the game it does give you a very good storyline.
