    HAHAHAA!! that was indeed my graphic card drivers, it's ok and smooth now .Well what i can say about this game, the atmosphere is really awesome, but i mean, when you try to make a postapocalyptic background, a cool thing is that the player wanders in a dead world without life, and feel opressed. But goddammit, in that game i will sure not feel alone with dogs, mutants, stalkers, army dudes and so on, there's always something to kill every 30 meters. AND THEY REAPPEAR TOO

    I say that because i've played maybe only 3 hours and i must have killed almost 400 living being. It's a fps you will say. well, you are not totally wrong

    The real "dead zone" near chernobyl is everything else then without life. in fact its a paradise for nature and wild animals.

    Also the game is not set in a postapocalyptic scenario! The world around chernobyl still exists postapocalyptic would mean that the whole civilization on earth would be destroyed.

    To be honest I've been playing a warezed version of Stalker the last 2-3 days. I'm buying it as soon as I get enough money. It's a fucking masterpeice. No doubt.

    Might suck abit when it comes to performance, but the story, characters, factions, special stuff and the horror is magical. ps who names an entire fucking zone full of people and shit? PSS it's fucking HARD.

    Best fps\rpg I've played in a loooooooooooooooooooooooong time. X18 is the most scary thing I've ever been playing. I was so scared and I almost pee'd my pants but I still couldn't stop playing it.

    I LOVE IT.

    stalker is the scariest game since System Shock 2 imo. i had to stop playing today because it made me too nervous.

    wth? are you guys in some secret place i don't know about?

    because doom3 had me quaking in my boots pretty much from start to finish, but stalker doesn't get me like that at all ;(

    Maybe because I've got awesome guns so I figure I can kill anything that wants to try it on xD

    DOOM 3 and FEAR both have nothing on this game. i had to span it out because i was getting just freaked. the thing that makes it scary is the atmosphere, its constantly eerie without pushing it to the limit. Doom 3 had a 5 second spook thing where a monster would pop up every 5 seconds, FEAR was predictable with its music changing when something scary was about to happen. In Stalker you never know when something freaky is going to happen unless your going for some documents in an underground facility

    Awesome game totally worth the buy!

    Spent all day yesterday playing it, though there are certainly plenty of flaws and bugs, I have to agree with everyone else here in saying it's excellent fun. Best shooter I've played since HL2, possibly better in terms of it's ambition and scope.

    Ti's bloody hard though, or perhaps it was ambitious of me to start it on too high a difficulty level (thank fook for quicksave) I didn't want to finish it too quickly though, and at this rate I am certainly not going to

    infact you seem to have 7 endings, i've finished it in 2 days, rushing directly on chernobyl, but i had the worst ending ever, so do the quests

    Uhm... Doom 3 is about as scary as My Little Pony, you must be easily frightened or something...

    Played it today and yesterday, just about to move to X18, failed one quest so far (forgot about bringing that protective suit to a guy).

    You guys finding it scary? Girls. I'm finding it tense but from what you lot are saying you're shitting yourselfs major time. I went down into x18, come across random bloodsuckers trying to rip my face off but the only thing thats made me jump slightly is a barrel falling on me in x18.

    But jesus tap dancing christ I cannot say this enough - BUY THIS GAM!E IT'S AN ABSOLUTE MASTERPIECE IN DESIGN.

    Buy this game kids, just finished it and I have to say I have never been so utterly glad I picked a game up in my life. It just rocks ass, and if you have any interest in Chernobyl or those kinds of environments at all its like a gift from god.
