S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Clear Sky is the official prequel to its survival FPS S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl, bringing the players one year prior to the events of the original S.T.A.L.K.E.R. game in 2011.
Review - S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Clear Sky should be seen as an expansion rather than a full prequel, but it is one that fans will enjoy nonetheless.
The S.T.A.L.K.E.R. games have greatly influenced the Eastern European games that came later. In this, the second of a two-part miniseries exploring these influences, we investigate the gameplay mechanics that make "Stalkerlikes" what they are.
DSOGaming writes: "RemasterStudio has released the first beta version of a graphics overhaul mod for S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Clear Sky. STALKER Clear Sky Remaster ports the game to the latest version of the X-Ray Engine, and introduces a lot of modern-day graphical features."
i fell into the Hype
and i probably wont get this one but it looks pretty cool
i actually liked the first one, probably goin to pick this one up
Shadow of Chernobyl was surprisingly very, very good.
It seemed like I waited an eternity for the first S.T.A.L.K.E.R. to come out. Unfortunately it had it's share of bugs. Talk about lag! Clear Sky is supposed to support DX10 but it definately isn't in the same league as Crysis. Just like Crysis you'll need a pretty powerful PC to play it in it's full glory.
