F.E.A.R. 3 SLI Bugged - PC gamers advised to run in Single GPU Mode

DSOGaming writes: "Since we got our PC review code of Warner Bros’ and Day 1 Studios’ latest FPS title, we’ve been messing with it to see how it performs. Although Nvidia has already included an SLI profile for F.E.A.R. 3 in their latest ForceWare drivers, that particular profile is bugged and actually causes negative performance."

advice PC Gamers to skip this game period. it just a console port and not a good game anyway.

evrfighter5099d ago

damn I never thought I'd read that. Chalk up yet ANOTHER one infested with consolitus.

Ranshak5099d ago

lol usually pick up console ports between 15-20usd. Usually on Steam or D2D discounts. Not really worth paying more then that.

bumnut5099d ago

I got bored of it in the first 5 mins.

another console port
console FTW

GrumpyVeteran5099d ago

Nope consoles for the lose. If a game is a console port when its released on the PC, it means it runs like shit, looks like shit, controls are shit or the game overall is just shit. So consoles & their games are shit.

PC FTW!

Console Port = a game ripped basically right off the Blu-ray or HD DVD and tossed unto a PC DVD Rom with the code changed just enough to run on a PC.

Special features include KB/M support....WTF!

The game will have none of the things PC Gamers like to have in PC games and it will be buggy, run like a shopping cart with a bad wheel, graphics will be OK if you have a strong GPU but then again the game will use up way too many resources on your CPU/GPU. You will be lucky if it's optimized for multi-threading and worse thing of all it will require Driver support and patches but not get any for like 2 months.

Console Ports are just not worth the money or time. PC Gamers do not mind waiting 3 months for a proper port but no way am I paying $60 $50 $40 $30 for a console port that runs like shite. $9.99 on Steam if i find out it's a descent port and a good game.

F.E.A.R. 3 Is Still The Most Original Multiplayer Shooter Around

DualShockers Writes "F.E.A.R. 3 (or F.3.A.R. if you’re a marketing executive) isn’t a great singleplayer game. It’s fine, competent even, but Day One Studios had an unenviable task in trying to wrap up Monolith’s F.E.A.R. series. With two timelines and two highly different styles of horror attempted in its wake, F.E.A.R. 3, well, it tries its best."

F.E.A.R. 3 wasn't even really a horror game when it came to the campaign. It was a good action game, but lost just about all of its horror roots along the way.

Loved fear 1 and 2. Reboot please.

That was probably the first time ever that I saw Castlevania in a list of horror games.

ps: Be warned, you have to click a lot to see every game in the list. I stopped after the 4th time.
