Both series are mediocre. One being less mediocre than the other is nothing fanboys should be upset about.

Try playing Stalker first, before calling it mediocre. :roll:. But I agree, Resistance is mediocre and I'm suprised Insomniac games are still in business. :?

Wait, can we swear on this forum? And to OP, lol just no. I've played Resistance 1 and it was one of the worst FPS I've ever played.

[QUOTE="SAGE_OF_FIRE"] They had a movie and a tv series planned. DJ_Headshot

The series of books based on Stalker earned the Guiness world record for the longest series of books. They have a clothing line. People all over the former USSR roleplay Stalker IRL. The franchise is gigantic and brings in a lot of money. Funds are not a problem.

I think it's a PR stunt. The latest theory is that GSC is moving to new offices and team Na'vi of DOTA fame will take over their old building.

People are saying that they "closed their doors" because they're moving to another location. We can hope... if it's true, epic trolling by GSC :evil:

Props to Sephis at GT for screens:

It looked incredible :(

Witcher 2s cutscenes look the same as ingame.

I agree. Stalker could have been one of the greatest franchises ever, if Stalker 2 was as good as SoC.

Makes Killzone 2 look like a My Little Pony show. :lol:

It can look great at times, especially outside, but the inside areas look like something from 2006.
