I have a feeling this will be one of my favorite games of all time. I hope I am not building it up to be something it's not also. The thing that attracts me to it is the graphics and the fact that it is creepy. I was also hoping that fear was going to be the same way. Well I have been playing FEAR since it came out yesterday and I like it but I am a little disappointed. I have heard nothing but how this game is revolutionary for FPS games. I don't see it. It is very typical. I have only played a little bit of the game so far so I hope you don't think I am giving you any great info. I just started playing it and thought it was going to be creepy and scary. I am still waiting. So far it goes like this you are fighting the same guys over and over and they will kick your @$$. I have been using the slow-mo to hit them accurately and then backing out to recharge it again and repeat the process. Big deal. I have also been able to let them come to me so I can blast them. The problem is that it takes a lot of the fun out of it. I have been getting a little more aggressive with it and it seems to be picking up a little. I hope it continues because as of right now I give it a 8.3 which for me is ok but not bad @$$. I hope it gets creepier and from what I understand it does a little but who knows? I have been playing DOOM 3 to get the scare factor. So far the puzzles in FEAR are a waste of time. You may have to push a button to move a box to get to the path you need to take. The reviewers have been give it props like if is eerie like Condemned. NO WAY. It is the same but not effective at all so far. Condemned put you on edge hardcore, FEAR tries. I am playing the game and am not satisfied 100% with my decision but that can change. Like I said I am at the beginning and have not been too impressed but satisfied enough for now.
