Wow, it's been a while since my last post. Lessee :
I'm unpacked, everything except 6-8 boxes of computer stuff in the office closet, which can wait.
I bought S.T.A.L.K.E.R., a great game based in the Chernobyl area of Russia, on the premise that in 2012 there was a second explosion that rendered a huge area uninhabitable and opened a rift of some sort, causing anomalies and strange mobile effects (that in some cases appear hostile), as well as generating a large number of mutations and other 'beasties'.
Not only that, but there are a dozen or so factions that all compete for the artifacts that have cropped up in the zone, some of which are beneficial - others, not so much.
Anyway, its a great game that I played way too much.
