Since 7 y.o., and now I'm 22. My first PC was a ZX Spectrum-based computer of soviet manufacturing named "Robik". Then got a 386. Learned English thanks to old LucasFilm/Lucasarts and Sierra quests, btw!!!
I haven't seen any real "bugs" so far, but once i got stuck in the environment. It was in the mill in the first location when you find a dead stalker with a PDA that says he has a stash on the roof (which, by the way, was empty). If you get into the small room with the stash instead of looting it out of the window, you won't be able to get out, because there's no such thing as crouch+jump we used in Half-Life.
By the way, the game has some really strong language in russian never seen in our games before. Which is good, because a bandit should talk as a real bandit, not some nobleman.
Since I'm from Ukraine, i couldn't just pass by the store and not buy this one. It's the first game of such scale that's been developed in my country (not counting Cossacs and Cossacs2 from GSC, and Faces of War 1 and 2, which had some popularity, but were not even nearly as anticipated as S.T.A.L.K.E.R.). And just out of patriotism i'm ought to give it at least a 9/10. But that doesn't mean the game is bad. IMHO it's worth the score!!! So my vote is 9/10.
