Real Sidorovich (STALKER: Call of Pripyat)

Texture is mail, right? xD

Why does everyone love this bald bastard so much?

^ Because the most colorful and atmospheric character in the entire series.
Name someone better - I'll be surprised. Although there really are a couple of characters with their phrases, etc., but in general - Sidor rules.

PS - "We'll screw everything up with blue tape" (c) Novikov

But what about the memorable dialogue between Yar and Ashot?

Actually, it's true, I read in one of the reviews on STALKER'a that one Persian will be copied from the security director at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant (after the disaster).
