prophetik music Posted May 17, 2009 Posted May 17, 2009 hey guys, thought you should all know about this. S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl is currently available for free on GameTap. go download it now! it's, like, two clicks to get it. make sure you download the patches, though, because that game was buggy as hell when i played it originally.

The Damned Posted May 17, 2009 Posted May 17, 2009 Wait... that game actually came out? Last I heard, it was still in development. Did it get released and completely ignored, or did it just go straight to the free games bin? Quote
Thalzon Posted May 17, 2009 Posted May 17, 2009 It came out, was largely ignored, got universally panned, and got a sequel, also largely ignored and universally panned. Quote
The Damned Posted May 18, 2009 Posted May 18, 2009 Ouch. No wonder it's free now. Most games have to be five or more years old, or their publisher and developer go out of business before they go for free. Quote
prophetik music Posted May 18, 2009 Author Posted May 18, 2009 it was pretty good, IMO. people expected it to be a pc version of halo or resident evil. it wasn't. of course, it's an FPS with a weak story, which makes it a dime a dozen nowadays. Quote
The Coop Posted May 18, 2009 Posted May 18, 2009 Well, that was a monumental waste of six-and-a-half hours. I get to "loading textures", and the XRay Engine tells me a crash happened. No settings changes fixes this, and I can't find anything on Gametap or the Web that explains what happened and how to fix it. THANKS GAMETAP! Quote
