I just got the demo of FEAR with the latest edition of PC Gamer. Would it be worth installing?

The demo actually stiches the best scenes from the first few levels into 1 level, it's worth playing. But it depends on ur comp, I certainly wouldn't want to install something that ran like crap.

I'm sure my computer can run it. It can run Bloodlines. I'll give it a try see if I like and if I do, go out and buy the game.

Just install it already and find out

Fear is the mind killer.

:ph34r:

I'm wondering what the issue is here. It doesn't take long to install it, nor uninstall it. I play pretty much every demo of a moderately big game just in case.

Very well I'll give it a try this weekend.

You can do it!

 

Of course. I'll see how bloody this game is.

It's not for the faint of heart.

Excellent, my type of game.

Fear is quite a lot of fun. Not to hard or scary though.

From what I've heard, you will adore this game

Blood and gore just like Bloodlines.

? WHere did you get that idea? Its nothing like Bloodlines, and there is no real blood and gore. Mostly its a straight up merc fight. Closer to Far CRy by far than Bloodlines.

That's a shame

No blood splatters?

I've only played the demo, but I thought it had some disturbing scenes.

 

 

And I didn't really find Bloodlines all that blood and gory either, outside of the stealth kills.

There's a blood-drenched room, people explode into a cloud of red mist and chunks when hit with a grenade, limbs get blown off, they get ripped in half, people get melted to nothing but skeletons, leaving a gorey mess...there's a room filled to your waist with blood....etc. etc.

Wow, that sounds cool

 

Grenades

 

I think I'll name one Mr. Meaty Chunks and save it for that "special" encounter.. like a lot of people in a really confined space

WoW! A vampire's wet dream!

FEAR is a standard FPS game that mixes straight up combat againt mercs and some various machines with little dream/halluncination bits that contain some grotesque sounds/images.

 

I don't mean that in a bad way either. Its quite fun, but its not particulalrly bloody or ghoulish any more than standard FPS fare. Its certainly less so than a SOF or Hitman.

I actually thought it was worse than those two...and I've played both...maybe because it's better in terms of graphics, and the parts are done in a more memorable way. It's much more.....personal.

I'm not really into FPS fames but I'll give them another chance.
