The First Five Minutes Of F.E.A.R. On Its Tenth Birthday

Ten years ago today, Monolith Productions did not release a sequel to Shogo: Mobile Armor Division. Instead they embarked on a horror-filled first-person saga that would leave players questioning supernatural age of consent laws.

Should be, "The first ten min of FEAR on its tenth birthday" that would make more sense. That would make the little girl 23 years old now

Was such a good game with exciting shootouts. It wasn't scary in the slightest, but damn was it a great shooter

NarooN3145d ago

It's an embarrassment that FEAR 1 has better A.I. than most of the shooters, first- or third-person, that came out after it. I still remember playing it for the first time and just being blown away that I was getting actively flanked, suppressed, covered, and at times blatantly out-played by the AI for under-estimating their abilities. A very fun game to play with some nice atmosphere. Bonus points for being created by the same dudes (mostly) who created No One Lives Forever, another badass series.

pandehz3145d ago

Yea the AI was insane in that one. Remember that Alma sequence in the office?

Yui_Suzumiya3145d ago (Edited 3145d ago )

This was the second game I played on PS3 after getting one in 2008.. MGS4 being the first. Really good memories :3 .. I would totally buy a FEAR Collection on PS4.

Bioshock 1 only has the intro though, would you kindly pick up that radio? :p

Levii_92388d ago

Original FEAR is a goddamn masterpiece

ModsDoBetter388d ago

Was playing Alien: Isolation again a few weeks ago, still holds up and the AI is incredible.

F.E.A.R. was another amazing game, shame the series went downhill with 2 and then fell off entirely with F3AR.

Couldn’t get into Fatal Frame, bought the remaster on PS5 and just…couldn’t.

DeathTouch388d ago

Fatal Frame 2 is an underrated masterpiece.

gold_drake388d ago

omg that game freaked me out haha

Abnor_Mal388d ago

One of my favorite games, would love to see a remake.

gold_drake388d ago

i still think Haunting Ground is one of the best.

You can buy F.E.A.R. and its two expansions for just $1.19 on Fanatical right now, which is an 88% discount compared to its original price.

MadLad449d ago

Easily one of the best shooters ever made. If, for some reason, you're a PC gamer and haven't played it yet, this is a steal.

cthulhucultist449d ago

So true! I finished all 3 and fear extraction point few months ago on steam deck and I had a blast (always wanted to play these games).

Regretfully Perseus Mandate does not load (bought all 5 at discounted price bundle).

The graphics havent aged well (especially in the first 2 and extraction point) but the gameplay is very good and the enemy A.I is impressive for its time.

Horror segments were at times very atmospheric. The story was rather weak at points though.

Wish they remake these at some point

FinalFantasyFanatic448d ago

The A.I really is impressive, you can also get texture pack mods for the games too which help iwth the dated graphics.

EvertonFC448d ago

"Soldier of fortune" was also a great game.

cthulhucultist447d ago

true. It even got a Dreamcast port

Kados449d ago

98% discount over the odd pricing on Steam.

Bioshock still looks fantastic, one of my all time favorites.

Yui_Suzumiya487d ago

Beyond: Two Souls on PS3 can compete with modern day graphics.

SonyStyled487d ago (Edited 487d ago )

Same as Killzone 2 and 3, uncharted 2 and 3, Infamous 2, Heavy Rain, Resistance 3

jasonismoney487d ago

I wish this was entirely true, but you might want to load up Killzone 2 and Resistance 3 again.

SonyStyled487d ago

@jason I watched some gameplay videos of KZ2 and R3 on my full screen. They are on par or succeed graphically to the first person shooters mentioned in the article that also launched on the seventh generation of consoles. Try the same and see what you think

cthulhucultist487d ago

Killzone 3 was super impressive! I could not believe the graphics back then as I was regularly pausing the game to stand in awe looking at the surroundings! Resistance however did not impress me that much. Heavy rain is also another amazing graphically speaking game. It almost felt next gen

Fist4achin487d ago

I always thought the first 3 Gears of War games looked great and still hold up for today.

SonyStyled487d ago

They did for their day. I recently played gears judgement with on the 360 and the draw distance was so blurry. The characters up close look great though

JEECE487d ago

Far Cry 2 was awesome. In addition to having demonstrably better physics and AI than later games in the series, it had a lot of design decisions that, criticized at the time, have since been praised in games like BOTW and Dark Souls.

iNcRiMiNaTi487d ago

It might not be super amazing by today's standard but I thought Mgs3 looked really good

JEECE487d ago

In terms of art style it still holds up.
