    Did anyone manage to download the new DLC named Ranger pack. I can't seem to be able to get it, as it's suppose to dl it automatically via an update but it didn't. It's also not int he DLC section in steam.

    I was actually thinking about picking this game up.

    What everyone's take on it? Is it worth getting? I watched a few videos on Youtube, and it seems like a fun game. Almost reminds me of Fallout.

    If you like post-apocalyptic types of games (scarce ammo, fighting mutants etc) then yes I recommend it.
    It's something like STALKER but linear and in a nicer environment + graphics.

    I enjoyed it very much.

    It is a great game, slightly similar to S.T.A.L.K.E.R. but linear and designed for consoles. It's called Call of Moscow: Modern Metro. XD

    Here is one of my videos about entering the Lenin Library:
    width='640' height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/FrGgivH5vAk&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/FrGgivH5vAk&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width='640' height="385"></embed></object>

    Pretty dark and creepy, S.T.A.L.K.E.R. just does it better, without the need to dumb it down for button mashers. :rolleyes:

    I wanted this game but I heard it was sorta on the short side. 10 hours just isnt worth the price tag... bought Crysis Warhead... Sure its short but at least it has Multiplayer..... But this game looks soooo well done.... :(
