F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin Review

Following on the coattails of the highly successful First Encounter Assault Recon, or F.E.A.R., Monolith Soft and publisher Warner Brothers released the highly anticipated F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin.

Set immediately prior to the finale of Point Man’s adventure in F.E.A.R., Project Origin tasks the player, one Sergeant Becket, and his squad with the retrieval and protection of Armacham’s Genevieve Aristide. Shortly after you battle your way through her apartment complex, a mushroom cloud explosion blasts through the city, successfully incapacitating Becket. While passing in and out of consciousness, Becket sees his journey from Aristide’s apartment to a hospital bed where he hallucinates being torn asunder by demons. Upon awakening, Becket finds himself pitted against a team of special ops soldiers cleaning up Armacham’s involvement from the original F.E.A.R.

Difficult to pick a favourite this year. Usually i'd have gone with RE5, but not this time..

They forgot JUON (The Grudge) for the Wii..but Batman AA made it? LMAO

Honestly Fear 2 (which is no way even close to a scary as the original) was a really overlooked FPS. Although after Dead Space..every other 'horror' game ending pales in comparison.

What I do like about the article is that it alludes to the Matacritic failure. most sites don't even like the horror genre let alone know how to review them properly. So I love how the desciptions make you want to give some of the overlooked games a chance.

Let's keep it real though..not scary..but Left 4 Dead 2 FTW!!

*although the article reminded me to finally buy Cursed Mountain..the commercial with the player reactions was actually pretty effective*
