Review

Let's get chased around in a school by a terrifying, naked old woman for fun

Feb 10, 2009

Back in 2005, little girls with lank, greasy hair were terrifying. Across the country, crowds of cinemagoers would stream out of showings of The Grudge and The Ring Two, kicking children in the face as a precautionary measure. It was riotous madness, and in the midst of it we were graced with FEAR – Monolith’s arse-clenchingly scary, spectacularly violent and needlessly bloody shooter. ...

A slow-mo scarefest, now with more mechs

Sep 22, 2008

Monolith tells me that its pint-sized mascot of terror, Alma, is going to “touch me more” in FEAR 2, and that’s a bad thing. I’ve got a general policy of keeping 8-year-old girls who command psychic clone armies at arm’s length, and if you’re like me, you perfected your “backpedal-while-screaming-and-jamming-the-trigger” technique in the first FEAR. ... » Read Full FEAR 2: Project Origin preview

Having a badass gun won’t keep a little girl from causing you to crap your pants in FEAR

Jun 27, 2008

The events of Project Origin promise to bring the player closer – physically and psychologically – to Alma than the flittering twitches its predecessor, FEAR allowed. “You play Michael Beckett,” enthuses John Mulkey, Project Origin’s lead designer. “You’re going in to rescue Aristide, the president of Armacham – the woman who restarted Project Origin and wakened Alma. ... » Read Full FEAR 2: Project Origin preview

Thank Hell for little girls

Dec 24, 2007

Dec 24, 2007 Earlier this month we posted our first impressions of the spiritual successor to FEAR. Weve since had a chance to ruminate a bit more on the shooter that will be making us all scream like, and because of, little girls. The outstanding memory we have of FEAR wasnt the all-pervading atmosphere - although it was creepy - but the intimidation we felt as we pitted ourselves against some genuinely sharp, crafty enemies. For Project Origin, developer Monolith is currently refining that ... » Read Full FEAR 2: Project Origin preview

One of the best shooters of recent years (FEAR) is clawing its way back into the limelight

Dec 3, 2007

Dec 3, 2007 Why is it that child stars always suffer? Its the Macaulay Culkin effect: subject to an increasingly mediocre by-the-numbers career while bickering parents divorce and squabble over the cash flow. Spare a thought then for Alma Wade, preteen star of developer Monoliths money-spinner FEAR: a victim of a tug of love between her creators and her publishers Vivendi - but also paraded through an array of ill-fitting console treatments and absurdly bland expansions. So why are we ... » Read Full FEAR 2: Project Origin preview
