After sending that Russian Living Statues webpage to my prof I found these links at the bottom. Here's the first set of photos and the second set . It seems pretty hardcore, but I wish they had more information on what exactly they are doing and for what reason.

Sat, 11/14/2009 - 1:43pmIf you play the video game version, you get to actually kill people. I feel like I'm having a better time than they.

Sun, 11/15/2009 - 9:20amTrue! Well you actually get to kill NPCs. Oh--did you ever get the online version to work? It wouldn't work for me at my school...but now that I'm in my own apartment it may, correct?
EDIT: Also, how are you liking it? I finally got it from STEAM since my original copy got borrowed by a friend and he always eaves it at his college room when we go back to Staunton over the holiday. 5$ win for that game!

Sun, 11/15/2009 - 2:45pmI hate the save system, but I love most other things about it. I die like every 5 minutes and have to kill the same enemies over and over again. The way the game is structured though there's never really a good time to autosave, so it is forgiven.
It is fantastically voiced! Though the fact that it's in Russian might make that difficult to appreciate for most people.
Oh, also the AI sucks. They just stand there while you shoot at them, so even though I don't have a sniper rifle yet, I can just pistol people really far away and they'll die eventually, because they don't move.
Haven't tried it online yet. Might be worth doing!?

Sun, 11/15/2009 - 4:32pmAI sucks?!!? That's weird. I usually found them to be quite sneaky. That early on military patrol whooped my ass a few times before. If I failed to kill any before they attacked me then they usually had two of them lay covering fire while the third snuck up behind me to lay the finishing blow.
What difficulty setting do you have it on? (Also, if you're dieing every five minutes do they really need to sneak around? j/k)
Still, this is pondersome.

Sun, 11/15/2009 - 8:42pmI have it on Stalker... and I took out the entire military camp using only a pistol. It took me some tries, but I never had to do anything except snipe at them and headshot them if they got close.

Mon, 11/16/2009 - 2:12pmI asked Tim the question that I posted after I posted the question here, thus making the former redundant. :\

Mon, 11/16/2009 - 5:53pm"Lack of personal need" I guess would have been more accurate. :)

Tue, 11/17/2009 - 5:40pmRemoved pants, but erred in targeting. Currently fleeing an angry (pants less) assailant.
