It appears that S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Shadow of Chernobyl will not see a release this year.Oblivion-lost.com is reporting that GSC Gameworld's Anton Bolshakov said as much on the Russian forums for the game:
In two words, to sum up an ICQ chat: when the plot is fully implemented (it is being completed), the simulation will be finally tuned. This is what the team is doing right now.
The game will certainly not come out this year.
Look for the beginning of the wide advertising campaign, as it will mean half a year until the release.
