First-person shooter, set in the near future, shortly after another disaster in Chernobyl. The authorities surround the area with the Russian equivalent of the U.S. National Guard, and they begin to hear weird screams and rumblings coming from within. After a while, though, most of them are returned to earlier posts. Curiosity also gets the better of some people, so they sneak into the 30-kilometer area to do some good old-fashioned investigating. These people are called Stalkers, and they report back to the authorities with their findings. Combining FPS, adventure, and survival horror genres with on-foot and vehicular action, STALKER features more than 100 NPCs, a large arsenal, and a slew of multiplayer modes.
Scavenger. Trespasser. Adventurer. Loner. Killer. Explorer. Robber. Which are you? IGN doesn't care so long as you read this guide!
GSC Game World's first-person shooter S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl is getting a sequel, according to a transcription of a Russian interview with president Sergey Grigorovitch. Blue's cites two different websites that have provided rough English transcripts of the interview, which apparently does confirm that a full sequel to the original game is in development.
Additionally, Grigorovitch goes on to say that there is an add-on for the original game also coming this autumn, which will go by the name of S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Call of Pripyat. Read More »
