[QUOTE="Ultra-Alue"] Nothing about FEAR is scary when you realize that the spirits/ghosts can't harm you.
The only thing that unsettled me was Harlan Wade and the storyline revolving around Alma's life.

I don't think that the posters here meant they actually thought the spirits were going to harm them. The game is creepy, it has the atmosphere, along with the music, to provide a game that also has those surprise scares. It can be creepy, and even scary to a few people, but that doesn't mean that they may think that the game is going to harm them or something.
.... haha oh wow.. Totally miss the point.
What I meant is that if the little illusions you saw in FEAR could actually cause the player physically harm, (the person's health bar) then it would have been a much creepier game. It defiantely would have kept me more on edge.
But I'm not really spooked by it because I played through the game at least 40 times. Actual count may be around 34, but you know what I mean. And I've played through enough scary games to know that the majority of scares in those games usually never cause the player any damage to his health. Besides Eternal Darkness of course.
