Level Romania gave it a huge 9.0, and I have to say that they really like it !

Yeah, apparently, the same guy that reviewed Cryostasis and gave it a 9 also reviewed You Are EMPTY (which is a great game in my opinion) and gave it a 7 (Gamespot gave it a 1.5). It goes to show how different the mentality is between Europeans/Eastern Europeans and Americans

since i live in Canada i have a large view of the North American market. its pretty much if its not halo its not cool. which is very sad to see how narrow minded the gamers are here. i personally love cryostasis its different fresh and new take on the FPS which is what the PC market needs. its the consoles that are screwing up all the PC games.

Yep, that's how things are over here. I hate most of the high rated games, they have no story and are very repetitive. I should just get the Russian version, it makes more sense if Russian is spoken rather than English in the game. Is it true that the US is getting a delay due to better optimization? If so, then I'll wait. If not I'm not waiting, the delay would just be pointless.
