User Rating: 9.4 | F.E.A.R. X360
While I loved GOW, when I popped F.E.A.R. in, I got what I really wanted, smart AI, some challenging fights and that FPS experience that I could not get with GOW. This is a game that may be overlooked as it is a PC port, and the PC guys who played it before judge it a bit harder this time around. For the 360, this is the best pure FPS I have played so far. The combination of some challenging combat, some tough fighting maps, some classic puzzle play, a plethora of weapons (that for the most part are well balanced) and some top notch graphics make for a great play. The horror overlay is also a nice mood shaker, though not as much of this as I would have suspected, it sets up for some great atmosphere to give you a nice break from at times intense fights, and some mystery to the story.

The story overall is fine, though is piecemeal via computers and phones, it is not key to the fun of this game.

A longer play and for me at least a bit more challenging than GOW, this is a game not to be overlooked if you like a strong FPS. Until Halo 3 arrives, this may be the one that I replay the most.

One caveat, I do not play a lot on Live and thus cannot attest to the strengths or weaknesses of F.E.A.R. online.
