IncGamers has posted their review of Monolith's F.E.A.R 2 Project Origin.
A quote from the review: "While the action side of the game is often thrilling, it's not the main draw. FEAR 2 lives up to its horror game billing with graphical and audio tricks that permanently set the hairs on the back of your neck to their "rise" setting. These can be as subtle as the HUD slightly flickering, a small controller vibration, a full-blown hallucination of Alma's past as she swings happily on a swing in a washed-out field (a repeated, important motif), or a simple shock like a sudden stab of discordant noise."

WTMG's Kyle Nicol: "Whilst F.E.A.R 2 wasn’t the masterpiece I remembered from ten years ago, with its combat and level design being worse than the original, it is still a fun game that is well worth playing through today. "
Following on the coattails of the highly successful First Encounter Assault Recon, or F.E.A.R., Monolith Soft and publisher Warner Brothers released the highly anticipated F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin.
Set immediately prior to the finale of Point Man’s adventure in F.E.A.R., Project Origin tasks the player, one Sergeant Becket, and his squad with the retrieval and protection of Armacham’s Genevieve Aristide. Shortly after you battle your way through her apartment complex, a mushroom cloud explosion blasts through the city, successfully incapacitating Becket. While passing in and out of consciousness, Becket sees his journey from Aristide’s apartment to a hospital bed where he hallucinates being torn asunder by demons. Upon awakening, Becket finds himself pitted against a team of special ops soldiers cleaning up Armacham’s involvement from the original F.E.A.R.
Hahahahha. But seriously, I love this friggin game. Played it from start to finish about a dozen times since it came out. I wouldn't mind a Remastered Trilogy.
I checked this out when it was being reviewed and it does look like a decent game. Not played it yet myself though, only saw snippets.
that's what it deserves
not 5
I would like to check this game. Never really seen it. The babes at the Fear booth (New York Comic Con) looked gorgeous. So I guess they did the job of not making you forget the name of the game lol. I sure not gonna forget the F.E.A.R. name.
8.6? Pretty good score. I'll have to read to see if I agree with that tally...
So anyone who has seen the game fill in everyone about the gameplay and compare it with other similar games?
