Editorial Review:
Stalker: Shadow Of Chernobyl takes you into a near future where nuclear disaster has taken place. When a strange second explosion at the old Chernobyl site rocks the landscape, it leaves a vast "Exclusion Zone" plagued with deadly energy disturbances in its wake. The quarantined Exclusion Zone expanded over time, and by 2012, specially equipped poachers, known as S.T.A.L.K.E.R.s, venture into the Zone to claim radioactive artifacts for the black market. You are a new S.T.A.L.K.E.R. battling for survival among rivals, soldiers and mutant creatures while trying to discover the true nature of Chernobyl's dark past and horrific future.

Rating:  - The Big Crash
I have had games in the past that crash now and then but I have never had a game as worse than this. I have tried all the patches and follow numerous advise from discussion forums yet it still crashes. It is a pity as I do enjoy playing it 'when it works' but saving it every few minutes does become a chore.S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl
Rating:  - Great game ruined by significant bugs

They did a great job of making the world feel realistic, including changing weather and day/night cycles (among ... Read More
Rating:  - S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl
Two decades after the infamous Chernobyl accident, there was a further disaster. Witnesses - those that survived - added to a scramble of unreliable versions of events. All that is known for sure is that the Zone is real, and that it is expanding.
Years later, a man is nearly killed when an explosion tips his truck. The unconscious man, marked with the word S.T.A.L.K.E.R. on his forearm, is taken to a Stalker camp. One of many ambitious scavengers who attempt to penetrate the ... Read More
Rating: - Interesting first person shooter game.
Its different and fun. Save the game alot because you don't know when you will get radiation.
Rating:  - Stalking the great shooter
This game is different enough from common shooter like 'Timeshift' to make it enjoyable even for old players like me who wet their teeth on 'Blood and Duke Nukem". The visuals are very good and definately lend to the atmosphere of the game. The story is intersting and plays a little like an RPG but your character never levels. Gameplay is difficult so save often. It all takes place in a depressing environment but that just makes it more realistic. There are few minor glitches but overall the game is ... Read More
