Default S.T.A.L.K.E.R - Shadow of Chernobyl

Looks like Stalker is finally being released on the 23rd of March. I've been looking forward to it for a long time.

But it's real convenient () with SH4 due out on the 22nd here.

Plus, as a long time C&C fan since the first title, I'm also looking forward to C&C Tiberium war, which will be out on the 28th of the same month.

Also I'm still into Medieval II and Red Orchestra.

Boy am I going to be busy

Yep, I cursed when I realized I'm gonna have to choose between getting into SHIV and getting into S.T.A.L.K.E.R right away - will definitely get both though.

No offence to SHIV (which will likely be played first anyway), but Stalker is something I've waited for much longer now - over 3 years :p

Looking forward to picking this one up too. The cynic in me is still expecting that last minute update that it'll need to be delayed one last time for just a little bit longer.

Triva time: what does S.T.A.L.K.E.R. mean?

But beware the system requirements. Dual Core is a must, apparantly.

Good!

It's about time more publishers/developers started exploting the advantage that multithreading has to offer.

Very good, Dowly.

You'd be surprised just how many people don't read those posted FAQs.

Sure thing.

The prize, that you can share with others, is a hands-on preview of S.T.A.L.K.E.R. from Pro-G:
