Arizona Posted 21 August, 2009 Share Posted 21 August, 2009 Scariest game I have EVER played. Really? Those semi-invisible blood suckers put the willies up you a bit, but I don't think it's that bad. I've got Shaddow of Chernobyl and thought it was brilliant. Keep meaning to get Clear Sky but I've not got round to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arizona Posted 21 August, 2009 Share Posted 21 August, 2009 What platform is it on ?? Is it any good ?? I've got it on Windows, not sure if it will work on a Mac. I thought it was great, but then I'm not really a big gamer, so I can't compare it to much. It's pretty dark, but the overall gameplay is excellent.

Thorpe-le-Saint Posted 22 August, 2009 Share Posted 22 August, 2009 From a historical point of view I would LOVE to go, but I'll a few others go first! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colinjb Posted 22 August, 2009 Share Posted 22 August, 2009 this isn't for real, surely? I would guess a lot of those pictures have been taken at Prypiat, an abandoned city in Ukraine which was built for the workers of the plant. When the plant went spicy the entire place was evacuated, leaving behind all buildings, contents and lots of other stuff. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prypiat,_Ukraine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rattlehead Posted 22 August, 2009 Share Posted 22 August, 2009 I have been - went last May. Was a fascinating trip. Fairly sure the radiation machine on the way out didn't go green but they let me go on my way anyway. Not glowing in the dark yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barney Trubble Posted 24 August, 2009 Share Posted 24 August, 2009 Are you serious Rattlehead? Being a morbid sod,I find the whole place fascinating. I might look into a visit myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rattlehead Posted 24 August, 2009 Share Posted 24 August, 2009 Yep, did it through these guys on a day trip from Kiev (also worth seeing): http://www.tourkiev.com/chernobyl.php The more people go the cheaper it is. It was full when I went and was definitely worth doing. And re COD 4 - it is very lifelike and very well done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arizona Posted 24 August, 2009 Share Posted 24 August, 2009 Always been fascinated by Prypyat for some reason, no idea why. Seen a lot of photos and have to concur that the COD4 map is very realistic and well made. Would love to go and visit one day (and Kiev), it's just one of those things I'll probably never get round to. The Stalker map is less accurate (Prypyat is South of the Power plant in Stalker, but North in real life) but does capture the eerie atmosphere well IMO.

Saint_Jonny Posted 24 August, 2009 Share Posted 24 August, 2009 I can't believe how well COD4 did at remaking that place. I wanna play it now! Exactly what I was thinking! That and the later parts of S.T.A.L.K.E.R. (couldnt get into that game) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
