STALKER SERIES

At the moment, the last part of the game was released in 2009, so the whole series should run without problems on weak PCs

We finish the selection with the STALKER series, a first-person shooter in the exclusion zone around the Chernobyl nuclear power plant. Probably the most popular series from the article.

Everything is classic, but still very large-scale and high-quality; open world, playable factions, side missions and a non-linear exciting story with different endings.

By August 2010, sales of all STALKER games crossed the 4 million mark.

An outdated or simply weak PC is no reason not to download video games at all. Instead of watching the passage on YouTube, it's better to buy something interesting yourself. And the ICE GAMES steam key store will help you with this.
