I enjoy STALKER, I haven't been able to play it too much, but it's quite good. Graphics that go good with the theme, AI that is so good it will kill you (I've been flanked and seen other things done by the AI that was impressive), etc. A great, diverse game. Like with all other things, I'd do some reseach, ie. demos, etc., before I buy.
I just got the game F.E.A.R. . It's alot better than I expected!
You can shoot at damn near anything and it explodes or breaks into a thousand peices.
The Gore is Awesome! Blood Splatters all over the place. Yeaaaa. . uhhh..
I really enjoyed F.E.A.R, gameplay was good, and it was creepy but not flat out scary! The only thing that annoyed me was having to stand around and listen to Voice Mails to get the whole story. I don't like listening to VM at work much less when I am playing a game. But thats just me.. heh Its definitely worth the play.
