Hopefully this means the people who whine about lack of cooperative play in every single game that doesn't have it will all play S.T.A.L.K.E.R. and leave me alone.

holy crap! YEAH!!!!

this game weant from co-op, no co-op, and now it back!! Huge plus for already a must buy game!

This game is so bought. It's like... double-bought. Like, I like it so much I might have to buy two of 'em.

Uh oh.. I have heard this tune before. :(

Any game that include coop get extra brownie points in my book.

Stop all the downloading

um, MOTHERFUCKING WOOOT!

Reminds me of Hidden & Dangerous 2.

After playing stalker at quakcon ( http://www.shacknews.com/ja.zz?id=8362300 ) I have to say that I think I'm looking forward to this game even more than Half Life 2, which is a bold statement I know, but there was just something about it that made it feel so solid and polished. And the demo at Quakecon was running the DX8 version, so the final version will look just that much better (and hopefully you'll be able to play on a DX8 version in case you have a slower machine)

The idea that there will eventually be coop in this game is just sex, plus I can't wait to see what the modders do with the engine. I could easily see a zombie apocalypse game made with this engine as it coudl easily render a downtown/suburban area that's all decimated and strewn with garbage/burning car husks etc.

Heh, 28 Days Later with heavy weapons. Yummy.

Uh-oh, indeed.
