STALKER is on consoles and it's almost as scary as a Stalker's first encounter with a Pseudogiant. But have no fear because your ol' pal CGR dives deep into the recently release Legends of the Zone as well as the prospects for the upcoming STALKER 2 Heart of Chornobyl.

00:00 Should STALKER even be on consoles?
02:19 Will Consoles Ruin STALKER 2 and Will STALKER 1 Suck on Consoles?
06:05 How good is Legends of the Zone as a Port?
07:32 How does LoTZ compare to the PC Trilogy?
10:25 How's Gameplay?
12:40 Mods in Legends of the Zone

I know someone will ask about the rock cover of the SoC menu theme so here it is!    • Stalker Main Menu Theme Metal version...

    I was very amazed when I saw that the trilogy will come to consoles... but it is so nice to see these games not being forgotten.
  • @gonejamin2545
    I took a gamble on purchasing the trilogy recently, I haven't played a fps that felt so demanding before. But you learn and before you know your on max difficulty tearing through it like your a action hero and then lamenting the u haven't saved for 45mins. 10/10
  • Nice to see taht our bros on the console can finally play the trilogy.
  • @eisenhorn5494
    Always wanted to play this game but never had a pc that could run it back in the day. Instantly purchased it for console, this series is beyond amazing just the atmosphere alone and dont get me started on the gunplay.
  • @bork750plays
    This trilogy releasing on console was an awesome surprise. I think they play great and I'm having a blast with them
  • @OmegaEnvych
    Well, you right, I do have all three games already installed on my console...
  • @Ceelows
    Damn bro, 4k subs only? This is excellent, keep it up youll go very far! I own all 3 on PC and have only played the anomaly mod lol but i love controllers over Keyboard & mouse, easier on the hands idk. I may pick these up. Thanks for the vid!
  • @SamTlmr

    I have wanted to play the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. series for years, but never had a computer that could run it. This video made me very happy. Thank you!
  • @RumAndWhiskey
    Man I am so stoked for this I played the original trilogy to death when they first came out (yeh I’m old) and I come back to them every few years. Been waiting for 2 for soooo loooooong
  • @GrailSeeker
    I'm glad more people can enjoy the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. universe. Hope they can update the PC versions too.
  • @5deadspace
    The port went onsale today and your video convinced me to buy it, thanks.

    My biggest worry with any franchise becoming a console thing is the ancient idea of version parity. As in games have to accomodate the lowest performing device. The cpus on consoles are like old men in wheelchairs which kills opportunity for simulation and living worlds etc. We oughta go back to the time when the console versions were just very different and or didnt have some features.

    First time finding this channel after playing through CoP on PC. Subscribed, your delivery and communication style is excellent.

    As someone from the Eastern part of Europe i despise the changes to reflect the war, especially because in our language, we have the pronounciations more closer to the Russian one so it felt more homey to me. For example Ukrainians have Kyiv, while Russians call it Kiev and we Czechs call it Kyjev. Even tho it's a minor thing, i hate old games being touched for newer audiences.
  • @Nikkikoo99
    Man all due respect i like your vids and everything but these AI generated thumbnails are not it, makes me want to scroll down and not watch the video (maybe it's just me lol)
  • Fantastic video review! I’m shock with how many subs you have. If you keep making content like this I can see you getting to 100k in a year :)
  • How many generations did it take for console to be able to handle vanilla STALKER?
