Shoot, shoot, and shoot some more in this loving tribute to flying lead

Nov 1, 2006

What's the point of a shooting game? Shooting things! It's weird, then, how many first-person shooters are content to settle for positively wimpy gun mechanics, with rifles that sound like pea-shooters and machine guns that take three boxes of ammo to down a small mammal. If it's not fun to shoot, what's the point? Make an RPG or something. It's much more interesting to play games in which your shotgun's barrels emit deep rumbles, bullets palpably smash into bodies and where flying gore is ...

FEAR - hands-on

Oooo, reeeally scaaary, eh kids?

Aug 28, 2006

If you don't know FEAR, you should. As a PC-based shooter, it shook up a lot of people last year, garnered a lot of good press and even won a couple of awards. It's no wonder why - it's a well-designed and undeniably creepy game. And now it's headed for Xbox 360 (and also PS3, although that version hasn't been shown ... » Read Full FEAR: First Encounter Assault Recon preview

As the name suggests, there's a darkness to this game that demands you play it with the lights off for full effect. As the new recruit in First Encounter Assault Recon, a paramilitary police force, you're thrown into a situations that are, shall we say, unusual. A genetically modified military officer, capable of psychically controlling the troops ... » Read Full FEAR: First Encounter Assault Recon preview

[360] PC shooter to lock and load on 360 and Xbox Live

Aug 1, 2006

So, you haven't played the PC version of scare-tactical first-person shooter FEAR, and you wonder what the big deal is? Just imagine a single-player game that's equally inspired by horror movies such as The Ring or Poltergeist as it is by white-knuckle military shooters like Rainbow Six or Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter. Got it? Okay, now push that image out of your mind, because all we've seen of the 360 version is the "instant action" mode. That's not a bad thing; it's just not so much ... » Read Full FEAR: First Encounter Assault Recon preview
