F.E.A.R.: First Encounter Assault Recon review (PC)

Reviewed August 29, 2008

Lewis Denby says: "F.E.A.R. is essentially a one-trick pony, but is salvaged by the fact that it's an exceptionally clever one. F.E.A.R. does 'Bullet Time' better than any title has managed yet. It somehow functions a whole load better from the first-person perspective than it ever did in its third-person origins, and it forms the backbone of F.E.A.R.'s trick. This is Monolith's take on FPS set-pieces. The twist? Create your own."

F.E.A.R: First Encounter Assault Recon review

Reviewed March 30, 2007

Linkamoto says: "With first person shooters becoming a staple of gaming on nearly all platforms, it’s becoming harder and harder to find the quality titles. However, behind the customary Halo’s and Metroid’s, one stands tall; it stands as a groundbreaking mix of atmosphere, gunplay, and exploration. That title is F.E.A.R. "

mardraum says: "15 minutes of FEAR is the most fun you can have with an FPS. Put it on the hardest difficulty you can handle and it's easy to forget about Half-Life and Halo after even just a few firefights. "
