the perfect combination of hollywood action movie + japanese horror presented in a FPS medium.

i've played the game for about 6 hours now, and i can say i'm loving every moment of it. the visuals are just amazing ! every firefight is soo chaotic, with crazy sparks, particles and smokes, that it makes you tired but you'll want to keep playing because it's just soo fun !! the A.I is absolutely without doubt better that HL2. the "wait in the corner and shoot 'em in the face" trick won't work here. set the difficulty to extreme and you'll get the most enjoyable FPS of 2005. even though i got a p4 2.8ghz radeon 9800 pro 1gb ram, this game still runs smooth (average fps 34) and it's still very pretty to look at, especially when you're using slowmo in a firefight.
what i don't like about the game is the repeatative enviroment (office and industrial all the way) and some what silly story. but really who cares, if you want a good story go see movies. and later after a couple hours of playing, it doesn't feel scary anymore when i encountered the "ghosts" because i kinda get used to it.
bottom line, if you like over the top action FPS, get this game !! turn off the lights and turn up the volume, it's going to be awesome !!

    Should you get F.E.A.R Director's edition? The DVD Version saves you the trouble of getting 5 discs when you should just get 1. Why should I get F.E.A.R you ask? Well for one: The game play isn't all about KILL KILL ... Read Full Review
