F.E.A.R.

Post by Short Tail »

For all of you FPS junkies out there, just wanted to give you a heads up on a fun game coming out this month. Its called FEAR and it is pretty fun. I got to play test it at CPL. The graphics are on par with hl2 (uses a tweeked source engine) and the game play is smooth, plus you get some fun guns and the ability to slow down time with your super-human reflexes. It also has a nice horror aspect to it with this creepy little girl that shows up every so often. Check it out

Just installed it a few hours ago, great game, very gory; just the way I like it. There's a cannibal too, pretty cool. You get to use bullet time as well in addition to some kick *** melee attacks. The A.I. is pretty clever so if you're an idiot don't buy this game, you won't find them running around a corner right into the barrel of your gun.

The story in a nutshell: You are assigned to a Special Ops team in the near future that is assigned to investigate paranormal activities. F.E.A.R. = First Encounter Assault Recon.

What kind of system do you have? Is it above or below the system requrements?

Eeek! Well my processor is only a P4 2.26 (non-hyperthreaded) and my video card is a horrid Geforce 4 MX series :(

I need a decent sub-$100 video card stat! Ah how quickly the money goes! :lol:

A 9600 pro runs half life perfectly so it should run F.E.A.R. pretty well and its only $80

I feel happy. I bought this game 2 weeks ago along with some others. Thing is now that I tried to install it, it gave me a wonderful error saying it couldnt load a security module so the program cant run. As I said before, stuff like this makes me happy :bubblegum:

Unlikely, the game was brand new. Seems like Akela the Hun's conquest must end.

This was a crazy game. I played a little of it and I have to say I truly got scared. This was such an awesome game.
The wolf is neither man's competitor nor his enemy.
He is a fellow creature with whom the earth must be shared...
If the wolf is to survive, the wolf haters must be outnumbered.
They must be outshouted, out financed, and out voted.
Their narrow and biased attitude must be outweighed by an attitude based on an understanding of natural processes.
