S.T.A.L.K.E.R. CREEPS INTO BETA
Yes, GSC Game World's title is still in the land of the living and it's taken a step closer to completion
Anyone who still has the hots for the long-awaited S.T.A.L.K.E.R., congratulations first of all because you've managed to stay turned on to the game for around three zillion months without loss of ardour. But also, you might be tempted to roll around in Vaseline with glee at reports that GSC Game World's title has finally moved into beta.
Unfortunately, there's still no confirmed release date for S.T.A.L.K.E.R., but it's currently expected to appear post autumn 2006 - which may mean Christmas 2006 or a slip - god help us - into 2007. Indeed, Oleg Yavorsky, GSC Game World's PR manager, has said of S.T.A.L.K.E.R.'s release previously that it'll be done when it's done: "It's an extensive game, which will set new yardsticks in its category and we want to ensure that we publish the game only when it fulfils the high expectations of both ourselves and our fans, and not before."
However, now it's reportedly moved into beta (according to fan site stalker-world) a concrete release date may be lurking just around that corner. Or perhaps not, but we'll keep on chasing and see what we come up with.
S.T.A.K.E.R. is a survival FPS/RPG for PC which casts you as a bounty hunter scavenging the deserted wasteland around the infamous Chernobyl nuclear power station as you battle other opportunists and the radiation-streaked mutants roaming the land folks.
