STALKER: Shadow of Chernobyl

Meet and greet the shooter that came in from the cold

Words: on March 19, 2007

But despite all this, has it been worth the wait? Yes. Should you, as a connoisseur and veteran of FPS games, buy it? Again, yes. STALKER, like Far Cry and Deus Ex before it, feels like a defiantly hardcore outing in PC gaming.

We won’t lie to you, it’s not what we were promised all those years ago; but that’s no reason to be ungrateful either. As a brave experiment in all-action shootery STALKER has certainly succeeded, though with its dearth of personality and many peculiar foibles, you can’t help but wish that the publishers had granted GSC some extra time to polish their creation. Oh, hang on a minute…

    this game is different from all the other shooters out there,but it is a great game.Better than COD in my opinion.

    I got this and Call of Pripyat during the Steam Summer Sale. They are defiantly worth the money, but are very hard at first if you are weaned on the likes of COD or Halo (no recharging health, enemies often have more health than you do, you can't run if you get too injured). Too bad that I'm the third comment this game has gotten in two and a half years.
