Player Affinity writes: "The F.E.A.R. series is technically a shooter, but it’s also full of horror too. The first game in the series had players wetting their pants every time a little girl walked by (Or so other players tell me). In the latest installment in the series, the development team, Day 1 Studios have added a new cooperative multiplayer mode that has players form a team to run, shrieking, from an un-killable wall of death, while an endless army of armed goons tries to block their escape."
DualShockers Writes "F.E.A.R. 3 (or F.3.A.R. if you’re a marketing executive) isn’t a great singleplayer game. It’s fine, competent even, but Day One Studios had an unenviable task in trying to wrap up Monolith’s F.E.A.R. series. With two timelines and two highly different styles of horror attempted in its wake, F.E.A.R. 3, well, it tries its best."
F.E.A.R. 3 wasn't even really a horror game when it came to the campaign. It was a good action game, but lost just about all of its horror roots along the way.
There have plenty of great horror games, but others haven't been so lucky as to stick around. They deserve to get a new lease on life.
That was probably the first time ever that I saw Castlevania in a list of horror games.
ps: Be warned, you have to click a lot to see every game in the list. I stopped after the 4th time.
What is divergent co-op and how could more games benefit from it?
FEAR isn't scary. If you want scary watch In the midnight garden. That is some messed up shit. I worry about this game getting buried this year. There are so many quality titles and I just think this will fall by the weyside.
First FEAR was good now its just all too different from the origins.
