There are more good Russian games than I initially realized.

"In Soviet Russia, game eventually beats YOU"

Family guy-ish humor aside, the sad part is it's true on that one. Can Tetris and it's clones actually be beaten? I've actually gotten to something like level 122 in Columns.

The team behind S.T.A.L.K.E.R. is Russian.

....only if the team behind Super Mario is Korean

I think GSC Game World, the guys behind STALKER, were Ukrainian. As for other international efforts there was this awful MMO called Regnum Online and it was produced by a team in Argentina and the game Mazes of Fate on the GBA was also made by a team in Argentina. And because I'm currently playing through it, Metro 2033 was also produced by a team of Ukrainians.

Excuse me, they're from Ukraine.

It's just that, what with it being based on a Soviet Russian story and a Russian film, and with the television series appearing in Russia, and the games releasing in Russia first, I got a bit confused.

Ukraine and Poland are going to be major players in the video game industry in the future imo.

This reminds me... Mount&Blade was made originally developed by some Turkish guy and his wife.

Metro 2033 is also by a Ukrainean dev. And Crysis is German.
