Great game let down by poor ending

User Rating: 8.9 | F.E.A.R. PC

Don't get me wrong, I liked this game. The game ran smooth, looked very pretty, and had good sound. The AI for the enemy was excellent. Weapons were interesting and each felt they had purpose. Only being able to carry three weapons at a time made the game a lot more challenging than being able to carry everything around.

The levels started to feel a little repetitive and it was all set in one building or another - a little drab. However my main gripe is with the ending. Not to give away any spoilers but there is no end boss. It feels like there will be some big climactic showdown but it never eventuates. I hoarded the ammo for one of the best guns, only firing of one shot to keep for the supposed end boss, but none eventuated and my hoarding was for naught. I felt a little cheated at the end, not being able to savour my victory as I had finished the 'game' but not a final enemy.
