S.T.A.L.K.E.R. games worth playing?

They're extremely highly-regarded among PC gamers. Well, SoC and CoP are, at least.

There are survival aspects like starting to bleed you need to use a bandage. You might get radiated and need to use some alcohol or meds to reduce it. You will also have to search bodies for ammo / food and weapons. You are fighting a AI that cycles through the world and does it's own stuff including attacking each other. There are also some animals and mutated creatures that pose a threat and you'll have to search for artifacts to provide bonuses (anti radiation etc)

I would easily recommend them, I played Call of Pripyat and really enjoyed it and have been playing Clear Sky and found to be better in so many ways but that's not to take anything way from Call of Pripyat, as again, I really liked it. If you get any of the three in the series, I recommend you get the Complete mod for either of them.

They are awesome and easily worth the price. Make sure you use the "complete" mod that fixes a lot of bugs and updates the graphics and sounds, it does not effect gameplay.

Quick question to those who completed all three Stalker titles.

Is it worth playing Clear Sky? I am near the completion of Stalker SoC and am contemplating continuing with CoP instead.

S.T.A.L.K.E.R. games are absolutely worth playing, and for there is plenty of reasons why. I'll name a few for you.

• The nomenclature of FPS titles is growing rapidly, seems like everyday, as to where the quality of those games is NOT. STALKER is a good quality FPS title that hasn't generated nearly enough attention.

• The quality and abundance of games in an open world sandbox type of setting is deteriorating, and there is next to nothing to choose from outside of Bethesda's offerings that are of viable quality .

• S.T.A.L.K.E.R. titles have been renowned for their atmospheric experience. No game can provide you the atmosphere the way that STALKER can. Stalker can also be a little bit scary, and creepy at times. This is also good because the lack of legitimate scary, creepy titles today is also slim to none.

• Capable of being modded, and competes with todays graphics, especially with the lighting.

Those are just a few of the reasons that STALKER games are great. You don't have to play them in any particular sequence to enjoy them either. I didn't, I started with Call of Pripyat, and was completely captivated by all of the things that STALKER brought to the table. Again, all of this is subjective, but I think the general opinion of the community here is relative to my own.

STALKER encompasses a lot of things into one title. Atmosphere, it's quite scary and you can really imagine yourself in the position of the characters. It's extremely easy to get sucked into the STALKER world. The shooting mechanics are great, some might argue, but gaming is generally a purely subjective experience anyway. You can mod the game to be even more atmospheric than it already is, as well as provide an even greater quality of graphical detail. The open world environment is large, and unpredictable at times.

PLAY THE GAMES, you'll love the series and be just as disappointed as the rest of us that you wont be seeing another "true" sequel anytime soon, or ever for that matter.

Cleark Sky was my least favorite but I still enjoyed it. I loved all three games and I would recommend playing all three.

Great game, very immersive.

I highly recommend playing the game with mods after your first playthrough. There is this mod call MISERY do try it when you finish it. I'm quite sad that we will never see STALKER 2

The science labs you break into, some of the most eery and memorable gaming experiences ever. On the downside the A.I. can be extremely stupid at times. Breaking into a military base when the bad guys just stand there for a while breaks the immersion
