Another STALKER preview. I can't take much more

Post by Mr. Teatime »

<strong>[ -> Preview]</strong>

This time <a href="http://www.computerandvideogames.com/">Computer and Video Games</a>, which incidentally wins the award I just made up for the most boringly named computer game site ever, have <a href="http://www.computerandvideogames.com/r/ ... >previewed STALKER</a>.
<br>
<br><blockquote>We saw and played with AK-47 variants, a nice M16 clone, some interesting sniper rifles and a very satisfying selection of shotguns. What is interesting though is that you can add a fair degree of customisation to each weapon, with the addition of scopes and grenade launchers bolting on to add even more fire- and sniping-power. There's also a standard selection of grenades and flashbang type materials, though we didn't spot any booby trap or trip wire style devices, which might have added another, more sneaky dimension.
<br>
<br>If you're looking to inflict some serious damage though, save up your cash and opt for the top secret Gauss rifle, which is as near as S.T.A.L.K.E.R.'s arsenal ever gets towards a true sci-fi gun. Basically, the Gauss rifle is a one-shot, one kill, EM projectile weapon, which bears more than a passing resemblance to Quake's railgun. </blockquote>
<br>
<br>Correct me if I'm wrong, but hasn't this preview just given away one of the game's major secrets? And if that's the case, haven't I just done the same?

You're so naughty, Mr. Teatime. So naughty.

Cassidy! Vic!

I bet it will resemble more Quake3-raygun than Fallout2-gauss rifle.
