Game: S.T.A.L.K.E.R.

Played a bit of Stalker yesterday. It's a nice first-person shooter but has some issues (don't try playing it on Vista, neither did I).

Good:
  • Atmospheric: great graphics, huge maps, great architecture and maps!
  • Immersive, open-ended... it seems there are 7 different endings.
  • Survival - you get attacked by wild dogs.
  • Horror!
  • Lots to explore. Again: mapdesign is great!
  • Lots of different factions.
Bad:
  • Inventory system could be smoother.
  • Story could be clearer.
  • High system reqs.
Ugly:
  • Bugs!
  • Overhyped game.
  • Late release.
  • Don't use Vista.

Back From CeBIT

I'm back from CeBIT. And again: it was a great Messe. I'll upload pictures later when I've some spare time.

P.S.: having 'Austeller/Exhibitor' written on your ticket feels great ;).
