PC GAME OF THE MONTH AWARD
Reveiw by ANDY
"FEAR starts off like a rocket with a michine gun spray of intense combat and creepy story segments that had me jumping out of my seat. In the first couple of hours I literally had my heart stop twice, and I can't even begin to count the number of profanities that spewed from my lips. At its core, FEAR is basically you standard gorgeous first-person shooter with a mix horror a la The ring movies and max payne bullet-time. A good combination if you ask me. The game does suffer from a bit of repetitiveness towards the middle as the story slows down and the action becomes regimented, but thatnkfully it does pick up again towards the end. I was a tad disappointed that you powers never really develop past the ability to slow time, and that the game diesn't deliver enought boss encounters, but these are small complaints. Fantastic game, and a must for FPS fans.--ANDY

I personally only watched a movie of gameplay, and if I ever get a good enough computer, I certainly won't play it at night. That movie alone was way scary.
