    Great game with scary moments

    Fear:

    Gameplay: Fear is bringing the series to a success not only because it has scary moments mostly because the story has so many good moments like how the story unfolds infront of you. You are a new recruit in the First Encounter Assault Recon team and you are asked to neutralised Paxton Fettel since he is the main person in the story since he killed most of people in the city. Alma is also the girl who created all this madness you will often see her wandering around the maps to distract you or to leave clues. As the story unfolds you discover how bad the city got and how Alma caused all this trouble. The difficulty is fine but If you try moderated,hard,or extreme it will be a lot difficult. I beated the game on Moderate and I can say that I got pissed of at the game not because it sucks mostly because of the enemies that react to mostly everything but the AI is extremely smart depending on difficulty. The guns are all great they do great damage to enemies. I will be pursuing on the the 2nd and 3rd game no problem.

    Graphics: The graphics are the baddest aspect of the game not bad bad bad just the glitches frame rate and most of the details are missing a bit of polish in some spots sometimes you might easily notice some parts of the map wich has been quickly worked on.

    Positive+

    + Great Story

    + Great Variety of Weapon

    + All missions are Fun

    + The game is pretty damn scary I had goosebumps on my arm

    Negative-

    - Laggy frame rate

    - Graphics are not sharp

    - Achievements are a bad hard to get

    Overall: Fear will make you have goosebumps while playing this at night I reccomend this game for everyone since it has great aspects in its gameplay and I will definetly play the 2nd and 3rd fear.

      Though its creepiness is lacking, F.E.A.R. is still superb 0

      F.E.A.R.: First Encounter Assault Recon—which is one of the worst meanings Monolith could've come up with for that acronym—is a shooter that, inspired by Japanese movies like The Ring, incorporates horror elements into its gameplay. Random pools of blood are everywhereF.E.A.R. boasts quite an intriguing storyline, involving a ruthless man called Paxton Fettel and a mysterious girl with the same greasy hair as the one we saw in The Ring movies. You take on the role of a nameless protagonist th...
