FEAR Files

Also known as: F.E.A.R. Files

There goes the fear... oh wait, it's back again

The truth is, like many other things that were world-beaters a few years ago (like Britney Spears, Ricky Gervais and Spider-Man movies), the F.E.A.R. (in its current guise) looks pretty darn ropey these days. Sadly, the only relevance it has today is its quite scarily superb AI, and the further mystery of how it hasn't been bettered. For this alone, the original F.E.A.R. is worth the $20 you can pick it up for in your nearest games shop. But this? Nah… this is opportunistic nonsense.

You'll love
  • Time-altering is timeless
  • Enemy AI is still pretty great
  • First FEAR is awesome by comparison
You'll hate
  • Crushingly bad retro looks
  • Terrible value for money
  • Shit-brown hallways
