From Playfuls.com: "After contacting GSC, we've obtained confirmation that the skies are clear and that an easy take off for the DirectX 10-stuffed prequel is in sight. Oleg Yavorsky, senior PR manager at the Ukrainian company, told us that "Currently the official date is Spring 2008. There's no exact release date determined as of now. We should have it announced in few weeks."
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."
Gooodd....
I'm glad it is staying on PC, the first of the series was a rather inspiring game which I played every single day and relished in every second of it, to see them cheap out would be concerning.
