F.E.A.R. 3: Cheap thrills that don't fulfill

F.E.A.R. 3 is an average, and unremarkable, horror first person shooter. If you have ever played a fps then you'll be familiar will everything that F.E.A.R. 3 has to offer, if you have never played a… Read more

A must play for everyone who loves clever and fun gunfights in a scary and depressing atmosphere. Better than Crysis 2.

Disclaimer: this review contains comparisons with Crysis 2. If you don't feel like reading how bad your favorite game is, just skip it :) Let's first say that unlike what you may read on certain revie… Read more

Good Fun, But Feels Incomplete

I am a big fan of the F.E.A.R franchise. The first game was a really good Japanese Horror film turned FPS and was splendid. The second dropped the "japanese" flair but managed to be a good product as… Read more

F.3.A.R.

I remember the first time I saw a trailer for F.3.A.R. – I knew I had to play it. Looking back at myself playing the original two titles brings back fond memories! The scares were not conventional or… Read more

Short Game, Short Review.

The perpetually silent Pointman and Fettel have eventually put aside their differences, or that’s what they want you to think in F.3.A.R. A sequel that’s not particularly in line with the rest of the… Read more

Thoroughly Average

Where's the F.E.A.R.?

Pros -Improved gun mechanics -Co-op is a welcome addition Cons -Lackluster story -Boring atmosphere I knew there was problem the second I realized this game wasn't developed by Monolith. Yes the gunpl… Read more

Solid, despite it's story shortcomings.

F.E.A.R. 3 or "F.3.A.R." as some call it, is not nearly as great as it's predecessors. In 2005, F.E.A.R. showed us a new side of horror that hadn't been seen in most games around that time. Sure, Resi… Read more

Complex and brooding pregnant demon? No, shrill whale (sic).

For me, the F.E.A.R franchise was one that opened with more of a "pop" than a bang. I am not ashamed to admit that, for a significant amount of time the PC version of F.E.A.R. represented something ak… Read more

Thoughts & Ramblings: F.E.A.R. 3

F.E.A.R. 3 (I refuse to ever call it F.3.A.R. unironically) is the latest in the first-person shooter/horror game series. As a followup to F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin there are a lot of changes to the… Read more

Low budget, but still good.

F.3.A.R or F.E.A.R 3 is the long awaited sequel to F.E.A.R 2. Does this game wrap up the trilogy in fashion? Or like most trilogies, is the conclusion a big let down? FEAR 3 Boxart Concept Fear 3 take… Read more

Don't fear FEAR 3

The FEAR series has always been an interesting concept to me that has just never seen its full potential and FEAR 3 is no different. One thing that fans of the series can agree on is that the story is… Read more

Solid but not inspiring

The original F.E.A.R was one of the best games I played with the 360 launch and was one of the few shooters that truly deserved the hype heaped upon it by the gaming press. This game, like that game's… Read more

Multiplayer Makes Up For the Disappointing Campaign

F.E.A.R 3, the latest in the F.E.A.R series, is the first game in the trilogy to be made by a studio other than Monolith. While the two previous games offered genuine scares and exciting minute-to-min… Read more

Taking the fear out of F.E.A.R.

What does the F.E.A.R. franchise mean to you? Does it mean creepy thrills or high octane multiplayer action? Your answer to this question will determine whether or not you will enjoy F.E.A.R. 3 (I wil… Read more

Great Co-op game, lacking Single player game.

F.E.A.R 3 or F.3.A.R as it is affectionally called by certain individuals (not me though), is the 3rd game in the Fear series. A series which has historically stood out amongst the myriad of FPS' out… Read more

Don't be afraid of change

Allow me to start this review with a disclaimer: I am not a hardcore fangirl for either Monolith or the FEAR series in general. I played both FEAR 1 and 2 and found them to be quite good, but I don't… Read more

1ackluster campaign with an 3xcellent multiplayer

I've always had a moderate interest in the Fear franchise as I find the Alma Wade story interesting yet the blend of typical FPS with horror always felt a weird mishmash as opposed to Condemned where… Read more
