This is a good game where it keeps me entertained. You have a lot of levels and bad guys to shot em' up, blow em' up, and kill em' up! The effects are creepy and it adds to the game. Unlike other games you're only allow to carry 3 weapons and in certain situations, one will work better than others. If you don't know which weapon for which situation. That is not really a big problem. The bad guys will die. One will use up a lot of ammo with less damage, some will do a lot of damage, but don't carry a lot of ammo. I personally carry the weapon that I can get the most ammo for and that doesn't mean I don't upgrade to a better weapon. Carry one powerful weapon for the bad guy who has full body armour. It will take fewer shots to take him down.
I heard a lot of cool things about F.E.A.R. when it came out for the PC many years ago. I always wanted that game after playing there free multiplayer only version and wanted to pick it up on the PC. Well unfortunately I couldn't find it on the PC for a reasonable price so since I owned a PS3 that would be my other option. Pros: Smart AI Good story Graphics good for an old game Cons: Not even scary - F.E.A.R. 2 was scarier than this Short campaign On the PS3 multiplayer is practically nonexistant (and the free PC multiplayer version players were scarce as well) I enjoyed this game very much. I thought it was weird that the guns in the game would only be 3 round bursts (even the rocket launcher) that you couldn't change the settings. I thought this was rather lame. There were not enough "scary" parts in the game but I do admit it was rather creepy. Sad no games showed up in multiplayer so I can't tell you how awesome it is on the PS3 but the PC it was pretty cool. Frame rate issues plague the PS3 version and I do feel like the frame rates where about 20 fps so that quite low. I beat this game in one day playing it for less than 10 hrs on normal difficulty. The story is good and it was rather interesting since I own F.E.A.R. 2 and played it first I was rather happy about the ending in this one. I can't wait till F.E.A.R. 3 comes out. But people who want to play F.E.A.R. should stick to the PC version as it will have better fps (if your computer can handle it).Read full review
F.E.A.R. is your basic First Person Shooter with a bit of a supernatural twist. The story does a good job at the beginning of peaking your interest but you have to piece everything together afterwards until the end. It can tend to get a little monotonous but the end does a great job of grabbing your attention again. Of course the graphics could have been better but the awesome soundtrack, voice acting, and enemy AI made up for it. Overall, I thought this game was pretty good and decided to purchase it so that I could replay the levels and enjoy some of its multiplayer.
F.E.A.R. has been out for a couple of years now and it is starting to show its age. TimeShift is very similar but has better cutting-edge graphics. F.E.A.R. is no slacker though. The A.I. is pretty good and I like the fact that cheats are almost non-existent. One bad thin is the fact that you can't do a "quick-save" as in most other shooters - you have to wait - sometimes really wait, for a "checkpoint." Don't pay full price for this one - get is cheap on Ebay.
The game was actioned for less than the original price. If you like first shooter games, this one is very good. It is very exciting and scary. The game is a mix between "Resistence: Fall of Men" and "Resident Evil". Squads of tactical teams use coordinated attacks and flanking maneuvers to pin you down and take you out. High tech assassins cling to walls and ceilings and ambush you from the shadows. Heavy armor units that soldiers will advance behind and use for cover. The graphics are impresssive and the story line is very good. This game is better than "Medal of Honor". The only thing I did not like about the game is that you can nly carry three (3) weapons at the time, so you have to keep switching constantly for a better one.
