 Rating:  - what's the point?The game would not load. There was extra instuctions about changing your virtual memory on your pc in order to play the game but to no avail. My PC is top notch and plays everything else available but it won't play this game! What the hell is a swap file anyway??? What is the point of making a game that won't play on decent spec computers? Unfortunately I have thrown away my amazon receipt, so I can't even send it back......probably. Rating:  - Pure classThis game is pure class. Think Oblivion with guns, as opposed to all the other FPSs out there. The RPG aspect isn't overdone though. Its just enough to keep you interested. If you are umming and ahhing about getting this game then do the following: 1. Buy it. 2. Download the 1.5 patch. 3. Download the "Oblivion Lost" mod. The patch fixes most of the bugs. The mod gets rid of the others. The mod also adds stuff. You can carry more kit for a start. You can also continue playing the game once you have finished. Plus you can upgrade artifacts and play with more weapons etc. With the Oblivion Lost mod (which is free) you will gain hours of extra gameplay and make this the bargain of the decade.

The controls and camera work well, although I was dismayed at the lack of a pause at the inventory screen, meaning you could die before reaching the anti-radiation drugs (I guess that's part of the realism). The plot is well done, and the cut-scenes, although sparse, look great. Towards the end, however, I found myself getting a little bored at the repetitive nature of the game, and there were some bugs that caused the game to crash (though these were few and far between). All in all, the game itself is remarkably well done, with a fantastic atmosphere, and very enjoyable guitar pieces performed by other stalkers. Rating: - S.T.A.L.K.E.R. debugged? No.I originally bought STALKER on it's release over a year ago, and like a lot of people, found it to be a deeply atmospheric and characterful experience in a very original setting. Unfortunately, it was also unplayably buggy and I had to abandon it halfway through because a mission bug had made it impossible for me to continue. I uninstalled and the DVD went back on the shelf, forgotten for a year... Anticipating the release of 'stalker: clear sky' I decided to install 'Shadow of Chernobyl' again and see what patches were available - maybe it had been fixed over the intervening months and I could actually get through it this time :) I downloaded the official 1.0005 patch and a mod called 'The Zone Reclamation ... Read More: Rating: - Great game unless you have VistaFirst and foremost, advertising this game as Vista compatible is a bit of a stretch. It may be possible to get it working if you are pretty tech-savvy and prepared to mess around for ages, but it's certainly not out-of-the-box compatible. I'm yet to succeed. I did however, play it on XP before I "upgraded" to Vista, and this game is a real treat. Unbelievably atmospheric, pretty scary in places and about the most freeform shooter out there right now. It's not particularly fast-paced but if you enjoy a shooter with a bit more than endless corridors and constant blasting, you'll love this game. Expansive playing areas, meaty real-world guns, mission structure (rather than on-a-rail levels) all make this a cut above the ... Read More: |
