Dark events in history often form the background to many action video games, most notably world wars and smaller armed conflicts. How many, though, take a civilian nuclear disaster from over 20 years ago and turn that into the basis of a first person shooter, with nods to adventure and role playing? How games have gone through 6 years of development with multiple release date claims, only to miss most of them? How many have done both? Only one and that's S.T.A.L.K.E.R. - Shadow of Chernobyl.

Covering both the original release and the latest v1.0001 patch (just how much smaller can version release numbers get!?), our review tests how STALKER looks and runs across a whole range of hardware - a system unique to YouGamers.
