I see files on Filefront for it... I looked it up, should be out in US. I looked online at retail places like Gamestop, Walmart, etc and I get not hits... WTF

Some help would be appreciated, thanks.

According to this thread, it sounded like only the Russian version was out yet.

The forums don't allow direct linking, so click on the sticky titled "Where to get the game?".

Official release just started in Russia and Ukraine since October 2nd.
In Moscow you can buy DVD-box for 800 rubles or simple DVD (stand alone version) for 550 rubles or Special version DVD (requires installed original stalker SHOCH or CS) for only 350 rubles.
I have bought last one.
Everything is working very well. No crashes or any crucial bugs.

Where can I get this special edition online, on a Russian site?

I have done some googling but come up empty.

Rep for you if you help me out here please.

Thanks.

I'm afraid you cannot buy it online from abroad.
According to Russian law it's prohibited to send any CD/DVD with music or soft to any other countries. You can buy it online only from Russia inside.

But do you really need RUSSIAN localization? Do you speak russian?
You have to be very fluent in Russian to understand because all texts contain a lot of russian slang and unprintable words.

Anyway, special edition (russian localization) requires stalker SHOCH or CS also russian localization. Do you have ones?

I think it's more easy to wait until english release and buy it at your home country.

But if you really want to play right now, you can check the internet and download pirate version. Some of them are workable. But again, in order to install pirate version, you probably would need preinstalled russian version of stalker SHOCH or CS.

If you want to find it on a Russian site, you should type in google "купить сталкер Зов Припяти".

But I'm afraid they cannot send it from Russia to your country because of law restrictions.

Anyway it is Russian version only. The English localization doesn't exist yet.
How fluent are you in Russian?

N88TR, how are you finding it with not understanding russian? I have the RU version with a crude translation mod and I haven't the foggiest what is going on half of the time lol.

Tempted to shelve it until the WW version is out, don't want to spoil it
