i was interested in purchasing this game of steam, im wondering if anyone else has tried it and if they would write a mini review. Im a huge fan of the STALKER series and it looks similar

I've been playing it a bit. The graphics are incredible, but with that said you probably need a current gen card to play it enjoyably at decently high settings. My 5870 is definitely not enough to max this game out. I suggest turning off Advanced DOF in the DX11 features menu as it has a huge impact on performance. I really am enjoying the game -- the environments are very richly detailed and the audio is incredible. The shooting doesn't feel great, but it's still a very well done game. If it ever goes on Steam sale everyone should pick it up. It can be downright scary at times. There is a good article on the graphics and performance settings for the game here:

I run a [email protected] with 2x2GB DDR800 and a 5870 and it maxes my system out running Very high, Advanced DoF off, Tessellation On, AA Antialiasing, 16X Aniso. Running the game on High makes it very smooth -- I recommend this setting for some of the more intense firefights.

It's a good game. Really atmospheric and gets good scares. Sometimes the AI can be kinda stupid tho...
