S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Clear Sky is a survival FPS game based on a 'what-if' scenario of the second Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant accident. The game is created as a warning to mankind against mindless play with technologies. Originally set for Aug. 29, it has been pushed back a week until Sept. 5, 2008.
Introducing a more lethal and cunningly efficient Bond, the game blends first-person action with a third-person cover combat system that allows players to feel what it is like to be the ultimate secret agent. Seamlessly blending the heart-pounding action and excitement of the "Quantum of Solace" film with the "Casino Royale" movie, the title propels players into the cinematic experience of international espionage.
