All of these games are pretty much universally praised. Outside of Timeshift I literally own all of these.
XIII, The Darkness 2, Far Cry: Blood Dragon, Timesplitters: future perfect, Bulletstorm are awesome games

I've been playing this since it came out in Germany.
I think the editor has a low end gaming system because I run STALKER at
1920 X 1080P 62 FPS 4x AA 16 AF and the game looks VERY GOOD.

I played all 3 games in the series and 5 different mods so yes it's worth buying
