Five rules for introducing your girlfriend to gaming (Feature)

Apr 15, 2009

I’m not a miserable sexist ass; I’m just a practical observer. One thing I’ve observed is that men and women are different (I figured that one out pretty early on). Since I’m a rational person, I’m aware that nothing is entirely one way or another. Even the divide between life and death is ambiguous (uh, zombies, amirite?). ...

New multiplayer modes for 360's F.E.A.R. - for F.R.E.E. (News)

Jun 26, 2007

A free update available through Xbox Live for horror-shooter F.E.A.R. on 360 adds two new game types to multiplayer. "Control" and "Conquer All" are both team-based and control point scenarios and are playable in all original multiplayer maps that shipped with the game. Says Sierra: "In Control there are 3 control points on a map. Your team gains points based on the amount of time a control point is in their possession - the more control points your team has the faster your team gains points. ...

F.E.A.R. sequel talk re-emerges (News)

Feb 7, 2007

It's been nearly a year since talk of a sequel to Monolith's FPS F.E.A.R., but today it's been reaffirmed that a follow-up to the horror-shooter is planned. In a press release from Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment announcing that Monolith CEO Samantha Ryan has also now assumed the role of Senior Vice President, Development & Production at WBIE, it's mentioned that the company's "current production slate" includes "the sequel to F.E.A.R." Developer Monolith is owned by Warner ...

F.E.A.R. (Review)

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 demo now available (News)

Sep 25, 2006

Microsoft has made a demo of FEAR available today, ensuring that you'll not be able to get to sleep tonight due to the resulting nightmares. Thankfully, the demo is short, so you probably won't be frightened into agoraphobia (leave the fear of going outside for the final release of the game in November). This is a good chance for you to get acquainted with the odd control system that seems to take the position of your feet into account and makes running from here to there seem more like ...

FEAR - hands-on (Preview)

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 ...

FEAR 360 - single-player impressions (Preview)

Aug 1, 2006

So this is FEAR. Countless lead-spewing engagements that meld into a mantra of violence, and one that goes on for hour after hour... after hour. 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 ...

FEAR 360 - first look (Preview)

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 ...

360 no longer FEAR-less (News)

Vivendi announced today that F.E.A.R. is officially under development for the fledgling console and will be shown at the upcoming E3 (Electronic Entertainment Expo... if you haven't already been totally inundated with what those initials stand for) in Los ...
