I almost beat the game by now, but i must say the game is so buggy and raw(not finished/finalized) that it became a real pain in my but. My advise to everyone-- make as many savegames as possible. I had to restart many completed missions and levels because of the script not working the way it should. My guess is that the publishers had only one 10 year-old tester and one PC to test it. Graph looks good, but it seems like it needs patching. The whole game feels like a "beta", same as the original. But i like it anyway. The good thing about it--people already are making some cool mods( extra gore, uniforms, scripts, etc.)

GSC Forum moderators censoring problems?

Oh, come oooooon... So not true. There's so many posts about bugs, glitches, crashes, problems, so many cursing and threats that you can't even read them all, let alone manually pick them all and delete.

Moderators ONLY delete when those posts turn into pointless firespitting, cursing and insulting. I'll clarify that I'm talking about the english gsc forum (just to avoid confusion: like I'm talking about some other part of the forum, russian version, or anything else).

Ah, you should have also seen the russian gsc forum. Moders gave up, so it's like a portal into the world of hate. I bought my pack of bugs and crashes in the box with the game too =) , but those words on russian forum are way too much. You even wouldn't WANT to read THAT, trust me.

So don't believe this "news", it's nonsense. But the bugs aren't fiction, the're very much true... =) still I actually did enjoy the game, so... it's your call.
PS: I like stalker very much, but I'm not a fanboy, in case you wondered.

The Wii won the console war? Could've fooled me considering just about every wii game sucks...

The only way a console declares itself a winner is when every household owns one!
That's the true account of sales. Not some pie in the sky 'we've outsold the PS3 -despite it having a year delay- therefore we win second place'
Try freezing the XBox sales figures right now and then waiting a year and seeing what the PS3 sales are to the same date? Then you get a true account of sales.
The Wii is a family console therefore it satisfies any age group, same can be said for the DS.

Talking about reviewers being unfair and laughably high scores for big companies, it's everywhere, even this same site scores crap games from big companies with 90%+'s......

It's just the reality in a money driven world.
