S.t.a.l.k.e.r. Anyone Played Or Playing?

[Jockstar]

For all the gamers out there. Anyone playing or played STALKER? I really want to get this game. But i'm not playing the bloody Oz prices. $90-$100 . ###### off, robbing bastards. So have thought about buying on Ebay or even getting someone to ship me an original from Thailand. Gotta be ######ing cheaper than these robbing bastards here. So how much in LOS? Is it as good as what i have read?

Just bought this morning, 600+ baht from the games shop in Tukcom, Pattaya. Manual in Thai but English version available for download (not that you really need it).

Played for a couple of hours, scary!

600 baht is about $20 Oz so ok price. Big difference. Bloody rip off here if you ask me. They wonder why people download games via file sharing programs. Not that i'd do that.

Guess you need a highish spec Graphics Card? Time for me to upgarde also I think. Already got too many games that I can't run.

When i get my tax back i'm gonna upgrade the PC. More ram , bigger HD and a newer graphics card. My PC will run just about every game out there. But not for much longer.

There is a necessary patch available. Install before you start because any saves you make pre-patch cannot be used.

Played it for a week,

beat it ass,got bored,

its a wicked idea,was a FANTASTIC plan of a game,but too long in developers hel_l,and the stripping of a lot of key ingredients(Vehicles,PROPER trade,a proper mission system etc) kinda messed it up,

I would give it an A for effort,C for achievement,the gunplay in it is spot on though,

and if its easily moddable then some wicked mods could be forthcoming...

Everyone seems to rate it. Oh well. I think i'll get a mate to send me the game from Thailand. Well cheaper than here.

UPDATE, Managed to score STALKER via ebay for 30 Ozzie dollars. So not too bad. Just waiting on it arriving now.
