I couldn't stand this game (awful AI, awful mechanics, awful UI, awful story, awful writing, awful translation,...) but do check out this more positive review:

"Dear Stalkers: We will not be releasing any official news until around mid January. However there is cause for hope! Good hunting!"

Still (re)playing the Half Life series, finished the two expansions and currently about halfway through HL1. Amazing game(s).
I also picked up Payday The Heist and as expected it's great fun to play through with friends.
I love the stylish gangster style (think Heat and Reservoir...
Same here, I think I'll just gift a copy to a friend. I also hope this sale helps saving GSC.
To potential new players looking to improve the visuals and stability of all 3 STALKER games check out the Complete mods:

I may have to agree with you but I'm going to replay the rest of the series first, but it's certainly damn good indeed. Why can't we have "dlc" of this quality any more... :(
Felt like it was time to go through the Half Life series again, I just started playing Half-Life: Opposing Force.
I think I never replayed this one since 1999 or 2000.
I'm amazed by the brilliance of the level design and audio of this game.
Playing the "new" Battlefield 3 maps, I'm having more fun with the Karkand map alone than I had with all of the standard maps combined. These maps are larger, much better designed and just more fun. I hope they release more remakes (or new maps) of this quality in the future.
Also playing...
I enjoyed all 3 games, mostly because of the setting and amazing atmosphere.
I hope some of the devs create their own studio and keep creating games in the same "vein"(or that this news turns out to be false).
Sorry about that, and indeed no screenies unfortunately.
The Tarkovsky...
Love the Stalker series but I don't mind not seeing STALKER 2 which was going to be a multiplatform release (read: dumbed down POS that barely resembles the originals).

My brother and me used to fantasize about mounting cameras on RC planes in the early 90's. Looks like it became possible:

Many crayons for Wooz, a truckload of bananas for Farmerk, all albums of the Decemberists for Sabirah, congrats Sub-Human I don't know you well enough to know what you generally would like :(
edit: mistakes were made lol
Another thread made me feel like playing through the original Unreal again, I couldn't find my original disc but luckily Steam is selling the entire Unreal collection for a measly 10€. I forgot how challenging this game could be, very enjoyable and still very good looking IMO.
I also installed...
