malware · Mar 28, 2008, 06:56 AM

GSC Game World today announced the planned release date for its upcoming survival FPS title S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Clear Sky. According to the agreed plan, the game will ship worldwide on August 29, 2008. Set before the original S.T.A.L.K.E.R., the prequel provides insight into the events that led to the atmospheric first-person shooter. The title will be available through both traditional retail channels and as a Steam-exclusive digital download. "Our intention to deliver the game simultaneously worldwide is both a challenge and big responsibility to the many fans of the game around the globe," said GSC World Publishing CEO Sergiy Grygorovych. "We are looking forward to achieve this ambitious goal in August." said Sergiy Grygorovych, GSC World Publishing CEO.

Awwww...... but April 12, 2008 is the day marked as the explosion that started it all in the first game.

Oh well, looks like it will be just in time to interfere with another semester of school

Man, that's way too long to wait... But not nearly as long as I waited for the first one, I guess.

will wait

anyone try the stalker mods?

InnocentCriminal · Mar 28, 2008, 09:57 AM

End of August ay?

I think I can hold out til then, what they should do in the mean time is release more patches for the first one beefing up performance on multi-cored machines and ridding the bugs.

Just playing through S.T.A.L.K.E.R at the moment.

Hopefully there will be less text reading and more guitar riffs.

Oh an less of this.

I shot him in the head so he teleported through the ceiling in front of me and somehow ended up being trapped in the concrete having a seizure in the room behind me.

but damn, looks cool, though!

Hopefully, this STALKER release won't be as riddled with issues as the first one (which I've recently started playing after 2 days of tweaking down).

Yeah..... I killed a guy once who died, glitched straight up to the ceiling (very fast) then jumped around the ceiling until landing 3 rooms behind me in a corner.
