- 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 Them... - เกม
Great video, keep it up and v damki !
Much love to the team ❤️
No way they're here. Чекаю сталкер 2!
No way
So nice of you to come visit! Дякую
holy moly!!!
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.
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.
Now the Cheeky Breeky experience can be enjoyed by everyone.
I just finished all 3 of them for the first time on playstation. I had a fucking blast!
This trilogy releasing on console was an awesome surprise. I think they play great and I'm having a blast with them
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!
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.
Well, you right, I do have all three games already installed on my console...
great vid CGR!
You are my favorite western blogger) From Kyiv with love)
Anuuuu keep up the good work, stalker! Thank you for crediting the metal cover ;)
great video i love it the best video i´ve ever seen
Great video, I hope it blows like the Xbox Series S trying to run Stalker 2!
Great video
TSD (total stalker demoskalization)
Played all three on console i f**king love it so much god bless Ukraine
Oh... yore one of those.
I'm glad more people can enjoy the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. universe. Hope they can update the PC versions too.
Exactly. The more the merrier. I'm ready to get cheeky breeky again.
I heard they are planning more for the console versions which will carry over to the PC as well, so much itll be more like full remasters.
Has anyone compiled the remastered cutscenes in a video?
Beat all three games im genuinely surprised on how good the game feels to play and the optimization has been surprisingly stable hands down my favorite ports thus far also playing on xbox series s the 60 fps option is smooth as butter i love it
Cool... ALLOW MODS FOR THEM AS WELL ON CONSOLES!
They will, idk the release date for the mod support.
they’re coming! not to the extent of PC but they are coming!
Mods for a console game? That hasn't happened since Unreal Tournament 3 on PS3 right? Almost 20 years ago... I bet even if this has mod support, it will be nowhere near as comprehensive as UT3 where you literally just "converted" PC mods into console format. How has this never happened since then!?>!?
@@ncshuriken cough cough fallout 4, skyrim, farming simulator, snow runner.
@@Arthur-037 FO4 & Skyrim had full mod support (equal to PC) on console? You could take any of the 1000's of mods from EG Nexus and convert them to PS4/XB? If so thats brilliant. This should be a more common thing, especially for "extremely mod friendly" games like these.
I was so floored when I heard the port happened. Immediately bought it. Haven’t played any other games since
Another banger
Based on the title, I was pleasantly surprised by the positivity.
Never played any of them but always wanted to, but picked up the trilogy day 1 on Series X. I'm waiting for the next gen patch before playing. I played the Metro games, they are ok but to linear. I have Stalker 2 pre ordered. Today all 3 games had an update on Series X, not sure what the update was, can't find any patch notes, bug fixes maybe. Mod support is also coming they said.
It's good Ive played all three on my series s and they've ran fine just remember to save often
CoP is pretty stable and honestly the best the first two are pretty frustrating at the beginning but just fight your way through it and if you spend time and effort hunting artifacts it's your best bet at getting good guns and armor quick
And a big FU, Now i have to explain to the misses why iam, playing stalker series on my workspace, on vacation and now on the ps in the livingroom. 🤣🤣
Thanks mate, was not sure if i wanted to pick it up, but now iam, Great video. Kalm anski
"Hello? Hello?" - nice reference
Howdy ho!
I know right? I got it right away
10 years ago i was the kind of PC gatekeeper that would have been fuming about this.
But Ive grown up since then and was so happy that more players get to play now.
I loved seeing people being legitimately (and illegitimately... considering the deal you can get in the dark valley 😈) giving tips to console players on the subreddit.
Marked One... WHAT.... DA.. HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLL.
Having just finished 100% achievement hunting Shadow of Chornobyl as well as beating Clear Sky and Call of Pripyat, I'm confident now that being controller friendly should have no impact on STALKER 2 as these games all play just fine with a controller.
Honestly if anything I wish someone would take the controller scheme used in these and adapt it to Open X-Ray; controller support on the PC versions of the STALKER games and their crazy mods is pretty much non-existent.
I'm excited to see what the promised enhancements and mod support end up looking like!
You can on Steam Deck with a little work. Community controller layouts and some customization can pretty much cover just about everything M&K can do even when playing Anomaly. I'm sure it can be done on a regular PC with a fancy controller too, I just haven't tried.
@@phrozac Indeed. I'm playing Stalker Anomaly right now on PC with an xbox controller. Discovered if you add the exe for Anomaly to Steam and rename it to "Stalker Anomaly" on Steam it will pull up premade xbox controller profiles for it under the steam input community profiles. It's a bit rough though...
I'd still love the selection wheel from the xbox version to be implemented somehow on PC. I really hope they port these changes as optional enhancements; I'd even rebuy the zone collection on Steam if they added the controller features.
Appreciate it being on console, but damn i want more on 2.
How many generations did it take for console to be able to handle vanilla STALKER?
Just one. 7th might have been "made" to run, but 8th runs it just fine as is.
Well Stalker was never a massively taxing game was it? I don't remember it being like Crysis 1 where you needed a ridiculously expensive GFX card to play it. I played it at max IIRC and had a very mid-range card.
IE the card I would've had when I was playing STALKER is nowhere NEAR as capable as the GPU in a PS4.
@@ncshuriken It was when it first came out. Only one of my friends had a PC that could handle it at the time.
@@Dingoman013 I must've got the game a bit later then. I don't remember much lag myself, just truly extreme load times (which often resulted in a hard crash) & hard crashing. Looking back, how the hell did I put up with it!? But I did lol, atleast for a time.
@@ncshuriken Even on my modern rig that first load takes it's time. It also could have been I was young and dumb enough to not understand properly how specs worked and most of my friends were running poverty rigs lol
gameplay on gamepad can be sometimes goofy or even drunk...as it should be in slav game.
I just want controller support on PC. Can't play with Russian VO and English subs on console version.
Wait wait... Console version doesn't have any English dubbing? Why would they do that? Tell me its not true.
Imagine having decent ballistics in vanilla for PC :(
How do these not run at 60fps on last gen consoles?? It's a game from 2007. They squeezed more performance from Crysis Remastered on PS4 Pro and that was a much more visually demanding game in addition to being a true open world with lots of physics simulations going on.
Runs pretty great on PS5 otherwise, though it woulda been cool if they added RT shadows or something. Reflections, global illumination, the whole shebang.
It's not about the visuals, it's about the CPU and managing A-life. Remember, x-ray remembers every little object that was dropped and a-life can have random stalkers pick it up, get into a firefight over it and have you run into the corpses two days later. That comes at a pretty weighty CPU cost.
i mean thats cool, it opens up alot more potential stalker fans. just a decent port tbh
I don’t understand why introduce mods for the trilogy, if in general the release of the second part will potentially kill all modding for the trilogy, it’s somehow not logical ) Obviously, everyone has switched to making fashion for the second part and the trilogy will be forgotten.
Like How Doom 1 and 2 stopped getting mods when Doom 3 came out... oh wait!
Last year i told my boss at work that i hope they release stalker games on console and it came true.
i just downt want hold F to open door
Good vid playing the first 3 while waiting for stalker 2
Nice S.T.A.L.K.E.R. DVD`s collection and video!
Check out the Ukrainian version too, it's a different disk design than the European and American versions
thinkin about buying a series s just for stalker 2
I loved these games, hadn't played them until they got on console
Except clear sky, the shooting in that game is useless
Russia evil Russia bad and all but I wanted the original game in its entirety but I have larger issues with the FOV I think console players should also be suffering
Also I mainly want the original game language because it’s easier to remember 💀
The original game shipped in English and other localizations to non-CIS markets so that remains unchanged.
BUZZ OFF STALKER
No one can say "Worshshshs" sauce and I'm from Massachusetts I can say Worcester which is like half the word.
Tell me if this man does not look 👀 like NEV 😅 from catfish
So wait does this mean stalker 2 will be on ps5? I thought legends of the zone was only on xbox
Time exlusive from leaks
4 month exclusive on Xbox one
This video is the definition of P..E.R.F.E.C.T. Review :)
These games should have had mouse and keyboard support on Xbox, shame...
Thanks for explaining derussification. That's was awesome 👍
Stand with Ukraine 🇺🇦
i hope you get well soon
It's a thing because people like controller support. I wish it was on PC
8:52 Well,most english speakers, you included, can't even say the word 'nuclear ' correctly either, more like 'nuke-elar' LOL.
I'm not a native English speaker, but I *can* say "nuclear" correctly
Oh and where you said they run great on console clear sky only crashed once prypiat hasn't crashed at all but dear god did SoC crash almost every hour on me. Did it stop me from playing? No, not even when it would drop spawn almost 12 military directly on me or when I'd load into military warehouses to unholy amounts of bloodsuckers, blind and pseudo dogs yhat were just waiting for my ass like I was a brand new box of bacon flavored biscuits.
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)
I understand that but it was the safest way to get a cat in a gas mask to pose in a picture with a controller. My cat wouldn't let me when I tried with him
Nah I agree. I see generic AI pictures everywhere.
so 20 years later STALKER can now be played on consoles. in 20 more years console players will be able to STALKER 2.
Stalker 2 is coming to xbox at the same time as pc and its time exclusive, so ps5 will follow maybe after 1 year or more, so no waiting 20 years again this time.
Xbox stalker best stalker
I'm not a Playstation fanboy I don't like exclusives. STALKER is for all, even console plebs. The right way to play is still PC though. BTW way Days Gone, awsome game..... on PC.
Pcmr
All this PC Master Race Vs Console Peasants crap...
You only make yourselves sound like a bunch of little edgy kids (or very sad adults). Who cares what machine someone plays a game on??? Grow up STALKER.
Nobody cares about your plastic box bro. We just care about the gaming. You're not In midle school anymore
First comment let’s goooo
The one and only DelusionalBlob, nice to see you here, buddy
4th comment
1st comment!
I think the absence of russian language is more like a necessity because russians risk prison for buying a stalker game anyway, this outweighs any alleged purposeful cut.
My man, i like to think that "true stalker" was developed for kremlin's money, imagine their faces when gsc just postponed the release not to fall for "mods better than S2" trap....
True stalker is filled with communist propaganda as well. There's posters. There's a Ukrainian TH-camr who made a video roasting the mod, overall it's just a Kremlin scam
"russians risk prison for buying a stalker game"
How? For what crime???
pc still the same a bunch of nerds mad about the devs decision stay mad good to see not all pc players are the same tho don't be the community gatekeeping a nearly 20 year old game 🤡
Care to watch the video or read *any* of the comments?
GARBAGE PORT GOT REFUND IN LESS THAN 2 hours after purchase on series X
Hello hello? X-18 labs
