I've been quietly reading about this for months, and it's out soon?
An FPS set in Chernobyl, supposedly fantastic visuals etc but I've found practically zero info for a loooong time.
Anyone know anything about it?

I don't think the game has gone gold yet, so I would say SR have the release date slightly wrong. Wouldn't be the first time.

I could have sworn it was a 2004 release but SR have it down as released yesturday but they don't have any copies.
Take a look at the games web site for all the info you could need about the game, it tells quite allot of info about the environments, the game-play, the weapons, enemies, and of course that beautiful looking graphics engine. You can also download a five minute trailer which shows the game in action, well worth a look.

Actually it rang no bells until you mentioned Chernobyl, but I'm sure I saw something long long ago in PCGamer about a development team who went to Chernobyl for some research to their upcoming game. I'll see if I can dig it out later.
