After all they've been through, they deserve all the sales and more. Congratulations to the team.
Game has been worth it and more! Congrats on the developers. They've been through hell and back.
Nice. Well done to it and the developers. I hope Xbox compensated them well for the GP release too, as I feel STALKER is a game series that didn't really need that. It would have sold regardless.
That GP check was probably one of the biggest reasons they've been able to stay afloat after 2 years since the games original scheduled release. Who knows if the game would've ever released as they most likely would've run out of funds. MS did do some extra help as well with them funding the documentary to help promote the game. I really enjoyed that documentary!
Big congrats to them.
