PaiN Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 I've got to tell ya....after playing the full version I more or less agree with Eurogamer's 5 out 10. FEAR2 is definitely not what FEAR was....Sad to say but its dumbed down and well "uninspired"...The AI that was so great in FEAR got stupid in this game...Use of gore is completely over the top and just done for the juvenile console crowd, it does not do a thing for the game but make it seem out of ideas for a decent scare...in fact the pacing and atmosphere of FEAR are all about gone.....to top it off the graphics look dated and the voice acting is barely adequate.....All that is left is a cheap imitation of the first FEAR that doesn't much work. I am dissapointed Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kamikaze_Badger Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 This is what happens when FPSs are built with consoles in mind. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
InCrYsIs Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 I was going to pick it up. IGN and Gamespot thought a little better of it. I think 8.0 and 7.0. They didn't say anything bad enough to warrant not playing it. I might need a few more opinions. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crow47 Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 Crap, I was really looking forward to this game because of Fear 1. I thought the demo was cool. But I think I'll wait like incrysis and get more opinions before I spend my precious few dollars on this game. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaiN Posted February 13, 2009 Posted February 13, 2009 What I said in the OP still stands.....but the game has gotten a little better as I've progressed through, I am going to finish it. As a FPS FEAR2 is fun enough, just don't go into thinking you're in for an improved experience(or even the same) over FEAR....this one has bad consolitis Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krieg1337 Posted February 14, 2009 Posted February 14, 2009 This is why I hate new games coming out. I heard the new battlefield will also be based on consoles. I guess its time we stick with games like crysis that consoles can't handle Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
labatt_splatts Posted February 14, 2009 Posted February 14, 2009 this one has bad consolitis lol I like that a lot. but seriously, I can't stand how many PC games are all ported now. It looses all uniqueness. On a broad level I see PS3 and 360 as essentially the same thing because majority of the games are available on both.

Because knowing my grandkids will be playing Half-Life 3 and Starcraft 2 before they die is comforting. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
