Get Out Of Here, S.T.A.L.K.E.R.

posted 2011.12.10 at 14:31

Joystiq - GSC Game World shut down.

RPS - GSC Closure "Confirmed.", Leaked STALKER 2 concept art, On The Importance of S.T.A.L.K.E.R.

GSC hasn't updated their english language site in awhile.

Time as a measure of excellence:

S.T.A.L.K.E.R. : Shadow of Chernobyl with the STALKER Complete 2009 mod is my favorite game.

S.T.A.L.K.E.R. is loosely based on (read: inspired by) Tarkovsky's 1979 film Stalker, which is in turn based on the 1972 Strugatsky brothers novel Roadside Picnic.

See also: CNPP Exclusion Zone, the Chernobyl disaster, Touring the Exclusion Zone (Gallery).

The unofficial website of the city of Pripyat, founded by former residents.

With GSC shuttered and the future of S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 uncertain (and bleak), I suppose it's time to get back to work.

Update, 20120112 : Apparently GSC is still open.
