S.T.A.L.K.E.R.- Shadow of Chernobyl

October 23rd, 2008

This game is awesome. I started playing it at my cousins and my cousin started playing it the same time as I did. It was so fun trying to speculate who the guy you are playing with is and what is happening in the center of the “zone”.

Incase you have no idea what the game is all about, this is a little info taken from wikipedia:

S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl, previously known as S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Oblivion Lost, is a first-person shooter computer game by Ukrainian developer GSC Game World, published in 2007.

It features an alternate reality theme, where a second nuclear disaster occurs at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant in the near future and causes strange changes in the area around it. The game has a non-linear storyline and features gameplay elements such as trading and two-way communication with NPCs. The game includes elements of role-playing and business simulation games.

The background and some terminology of the game (“The Zone”, “Stalker”) is borrowed from the popular science fiction book Roadside Picnic by Boris and Arkady Strugatsky and the 1979 film Stalker by Andrei Tarkovsky, which was itself loosely based on the book.

In S.T.A.L.K.E.R., the player assumes the identity of an amnesiac “Stalker”, an illegal explorer/artefact scavenger in “The Zone“, named “The Marked One”. “The Zone” is the location of an alternate reality version of the Chernobyl Power Plant after a second, fictitious explosion, which contaminated the surrounding area with radiation and caused strange otherworldly changes in local fauna, flora and the laws of physics. “Stalker” in its original film context roughly meant “explorer” or “guide”, as the stalker’s goal was to bring people into the Zone. On July 11, 2007, GSC Game World announced a prequel, S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Clear Sky, which was released on 5 September 2008.[3]

S.T.A.L.K.E.R. stands for “Scavenger, Trespasser, Adventurer, Loner, Killer, Explorer, Robber”.[4]

Asus Eee PC

Oh my god. This thing is so small! Its so easy to have it with you anywhere. I am currently typing from my couch while eating. To be honest this is not mine, but my parents. I think I should get one too tough. It has couple of problems too. The small screen and keyboard take some time to get used to. And the keyboard recognizes 50% of my typing. Its hard to type when you have to push the key all the way down.

The site, http://tomppaduulis.org has been updated. The update was big and time consuming, but I am more than happy of how it looks now. The site is about my maps, so I listed couple of my maps there and have started making new ones to list there. Maybe in the future I will list other peoples maps too, so it would be easier for you to download them.
