    Lost Promises...

    The game play just rots of missed promises. This is the most linear open world (and that is what most Reviewers are calling it) ever conceived. I also find it funny that traveling from point to point mostly consists of w... Read Full Review

    fantastic, totally worth the wait. Gives you many choices, challenges you if you wish to be tricky

    After a few hours of figuring out why* I was experiencing a slideshow after booting up the game for the first time...I was graced with the incredible game experience that is STALKER. I have known about this game for a wh... Read Full Review

    amazing game, immersive, a change of pace from normal shooters

    S.T.A.L.K.E.R: Shadow of Chernobyl is an amazing game, it redefines the FPS genre as much as Half-Life did. This game is very open-ended and not at all like traditional first person shooters such as Call of Duty or Halo... Read Full Review

    This game kicks serious ass!

    I didn't know what to expect having waited so long for Stalker. Would it be good? Great? Or would it simply be another bomb? So I picked up my pre-order with eagerness, took it home, and fired it up right. Having r... Read Full Review
