Omfg. This game looks awesome. If you haven't played the demo, you have to. Of course, you'll need a beefy graphics card (GeForce 6 series or ATI X600 or better) to get decent graphics. I have it running on max settings on my 20" widescreen, and it looks amazing. It might be considered a bit "slow" compared to games like Medal of Honor, but boy is it fun. Each kill actually feels significant in this game. It's one game that I'm putting on my Christmas list.

The engine and gameplay are some of the most stable I have ever seen (about as fun as Call of Duty).

You're using the second- or third-best card on the market.

Omg... I just finished the SinglePlayer and the Story Is... AWESOME. One of the best storyline out there.. It's great, you start to understand who you are, and who you are really fighting. The ending is just damn Great. We could do a movie out of it!

I've heard the AI is great, but it doesn't change that the game is repetitive. The multiplayer is said to be lame compared to CS.

Warning: Contains Spoilers

What? The story is great? ITS HORRIBLE!

Considering you are only allowed to view phone messages and download laptops ONCE, you have to pay attention to the messages. This becomes hard when you activate it, and an enemy hears it, and they start attacking you.

The story doesn't explain anything about the "possessed general", and why he randomly starts eating people. And F.E.A.R is supposed to be a team. When, throughout the game do you ever feel like your in an elite team? Considering everybody your with dies in 5 seconds, and you are just a rookie, is silly. Not to mention halfway through the game a certain character dissapears forever, no explanation given.

Only the first few levels are scary. Then the game starts to develop a pattern, and the "scare" just turns silly.

The AI is the one thing in this game that is amazing. However they only added "one type of enemy". Sure, the skins change, but the behaviour doesn't.

The games physics are also completely screwed. They only did it good for certain items, useless ones at that. For instance, you can kick around a book, but large items such as crates seem to be bolted to the ground.

The graphics are also proven not be as good as Quake 4 or even Doom 3. Every level has the exact same feel. Some abandoned warehouse. This gets extremely boring after awhile. In fact, it gets so boring I want to kill myself.

However, I still bought the game, and somewhat enjoyed it. I enjoyed Saw 2 much more though.

Play it to the end, you discover the whole thing at the last 1-2 hour of playing. Trust me.

Play it to the end, there is 6-7 type of Ennemies.

Bullpoo. The Graphics are WAY FAR better than doom3, Okay, it take an awesome computer.Yeah it get repetitive. But it change anyway. The level design is pretty srewed but when you fight your ass agains't 6 replica you tend to forget that.

Edit: Next time MindArchon, PLAY the game before saying bad things about it.

Who wouldn't enjoy Saw 2 more then lame old f.e.a.r.
I personally think the graphics look really stupid for this generation of gaming.

I played through the end, and learned next to nothing about Paxton Fettel. In fact, the company even admitted they added him in near the end of game development.

And furthermore, I never honestly felt part of a team. I was going in solo.

Are you kidding? It almost seems like they completed the game, then decided to make it a horror after it was completed. Here are the main ways the game "tries" to scare you.

1. Alma pops out of nowhere, such as crawling through a vent. This may make you jump.

2. Something random happens, such as a body flies in front of you, making you jump.

3. Bloody faces appear (people who are dead up ahead) also making you jump.

3. You go in slow motion and hear voices, and see either Alma or Paxton Fettel appear and say stuff to you/or you go into a hallucination. Either way, both are quite silly.

F.E.A.R runs on the engine Jupiter EX, and just seems very inefficient. I have a GeForce 6800, which is a pretty decent video card, and I cant even set anything above the medium/low level (and I have 2 gigs of ram). In Doom 3/Quake 4, I can set settings to maximum and get awesome graphics quality.

Furthermore, it honestly seems like they picked a random person off the street to do level design. Each one seems the exact same. The office building even recycled parts of the warehouse. I couldnt focus into the atmosphere of the game, when level design was horrible.
