S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Clear Sky is the second game from developer GSC Game World to take us into the Zone, the irradiated wasteland surrounding the post-meltdown Chernobyl nuclear power plant.
We had to wait, wait and then wait some more for Shadow of Chernobyl, but prequel Clear Sky, which was announced at this year's E3, has been slapped with a 2008 release date.
In part one of a two-part interview, Anton Bolshakov, GSC project manager, tackles CVG's questions.
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."
