One of the first DX11 games, Realistic unseen survival game with free world horror environments. Shooting a guy in the leg, then the shoulder, will cause him to buckle over realistically according. GSC Company has taken such tremendous leaps forward in story telling that you have to wonder if its even the same people. Firefights sound static, dull and treble filled. The story isin't really anything amazing. Doom is the apt word to describe how The Zone speaks to you. Every gun still has the same old compressed sound files, with the same naked quality as the last two games. From a technical standpoint Call of Pripyat is also the best looking Stalker to date, featuring all the eye candy of Clear Sky with triple the performance and stability.Pros:-The Zone is the most terrifying place to visit in any gaming department. © 2020 GAMESPOT, A RED VENTURES COMPANY.

Before long, murdering a total stranger with a hand grenade seems pragmatic rather than craven. One of the reasons why this game received a lower score is because it left too many things untold and, while I appreciate the effort to create an immersive authentic world laid to waste by a nuclear disaster, I simply can't escape the recurring feeling that something is missing in this game.

Bethesda has many a thing to learn from GSC.Cons:-Some recycled props, but no where near as many as Clear Sky.-Ever present X-ray "stutter" is still here when entering a spawn area for the first time.-Still taxing on older systems despite the leaps forward in stability and polish.Sound:"It is so quiet out here, it is the quietest place in the world..."I need to dock some marks from Call of Pripyat for its sound department. This gives you room to explore the *immense* new maps like any other Stalker does. Pure, unrelenting doom.I'd hate to end my descriptions of the terrifying locales with a negative, but I must.
