GSC Game World's follow-up prequel to last year's S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl makes and meets a lot of promises. Better graphics, a more fleshed out story, more interesting graphics and a greatly improved AI make S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Clear Sky a definite improvement over the original game, but seriously - where's the Clear Sky? Check out the latest screens. Cloudy, overcast, dark - dammit, I want my money back as soon as the game comes out and I pay for it!
