It begins half an hour before the end of the original F.E.A.R.. You play as Michael Beckett, the point man of the Delta team sent to take Armachem president Genevieve Aristide into custody. Replica forces have already infiltrated her building, though, and just as you reach the roof, you're knocked off your feet by the explosion that destroyed the Origin facility.
WTMG's Kyle Nicol: "Whilst F.E.A.R 2 wasn’t the masterpiece I remembered from ten years ago, with its combat and level design being worse than the original, it is still a fun game that is well worth playing through today. "

PSU continues its look at the horror genre over the past 20 years on PlayStation platforms, with our latest entry looking at the tail end of the PS2 era and into a new generation with the release of the PS3. Resident Evil 4, Dead Space, Siren: Blood Curse, and F.E.A.R. are just some of the pant-wetting pleasures you'll find in part 3.

Please note that this list is in no particular order. Each selection has been made by individual writers who found their respective choice their most terrifying experience in gaming."
I mostly agree with those except with Alan Wake, it wasnt scary at all.
But a great list overall.
I've played all games on the list. Alan wakes was intense at certain moments not scary. Fatal Frame; I was quite young then it got me scared shit less(damn camera). The evil within was ok but Resident evil scared me more back in the day (maybe its because I got older, dont know).
As for PT? ok...I advice people NOT to use surround headsets whie playing this...Jesus... I could hear her moan behind me right on top of my ear at times and I could for the life of me turn around...mind f***
But my god does Alien Isolation raise my heart beat. When you're being chased by the xenomorph and you know you are totally defenseless against it can scare the bejesus out of you, things get worse when you realize that running for it when you encounter the beast makes things worse, yeah...
That said Silent hill 2 was scary as shit as well, especially when the Pyramid head chased you...
I played the demo via Qore and I really enjoyed it. I thought the graphics were pretty good despite reading they were lousy. I liked all the detail in the school, and the premonition area was well done too I thought.
They've done a really good job. Only problem I had with the Qore demo was the controls..I can't seem to fire the weapons, I can only do melee attacks, and there's no way to change the controls (and also the sound cutting out bug). But from what I played its a great game.
