Welcome to Episode 269
We begin with Skazz providing updates from our previous episode discussions, including how to acquire Kane & Lynch, which leads into a conversation about Games for Windows Live and the equally problematic Windows Store.
Moving on to games, Ram has treated himself to S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 and is returning to the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone. He provides a brief history of the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. series, including how ambitious it was and discusses many of the features that had to be cut during development. He then talks about the new game, highlighting the enjoyable combat and atmosphere that is somewhat undermined by the voice acting.
