S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Developer Speaks Up
S.T.A.L.K.E.R. – Shadow of Chernobyl is just of one those titles that are delayed and delayed. And delayed. I was more excited about this game than Half Life 2, at the time when they were both scheduled to release in Fall 2003. Developed by GSC Gameworld, it was originally scheduled for a 2003 release, then 2005, and now THQ is saying Q1 2007. What is going on? Countless rumors have circulated for years, suggesting that the developer isn’t in control any longer. Now they have addressed some of those issues, finishing with:
S.T.A.L.K.E.R. has been in production for a long time. Will make it 5 years overall. On S.T.A.L.K.E.R. we made every possible mistake one could make. Every possible fault to do was done. This is why we are not fuming to see indignant threads on forums – we’re to blame after all. Once the project is done we could release a book ‘The ways you don’t want to make your games’.
