F.E.A.R. or "First Encounter Assault and Recon" is a firstperson shooter set in a secretive complex full of government intrigue. Players take the role of a member of an elite squad of soldiers that's called in when conventional troops have failed. One such situation occurs when an unknown force infiltrates the complex, and the first strike Special Forces team sent to quell the invasion was decimated minutes after arriving on the scene. Now it is up the F.E.A.R. squad to isolate the invaders and eliminate them, before anyone else gets hurt (or any multibilliondollar government equipment is lost).

The game's realistic, nearfuture setting and story line feature elements of horror, supernatural vision, and even philosophical insight. The lead character is not given a name, in order to encourage the player to more fully assume the role, but well developed teammate characters are designed to bring a personal context to the adventure. Enemy artificial intelligence is designed to produce believable human characters, as well, who work together as a deadly efficient, reactive team.

In addition to the singleplayer game, popular multiplayer modes such as Deathmatch, Elimination, and Capture the Flag are available. The Director's Edition of F.E.A.R comes on a single DVD disc, which includes a "Making of" video, candid footage of developer discussions, and a machinima short, along with a complete copy of the full game. ~ T.J.

    FEAR lives up to its name

    By jurado  Jul 18, 2006

    Pros: Spooky environments, great use of sound to freak you out

    Cons: Every room looks the same, every soldier you kill looks identical

    From the start, this game is spooky from beginning to end. While it isn't as blatantly gory as other FPS games out there, such as Doom and Quake, you'll find yourself jumping out of your chair. Rather then using cheap scares, FEAR uses almost... all of your senses, to achieve the effect that you are going to die around the next corner. On a technical note, this game does a great job at auto-configuring the display options to run on your computer, which is great for those who aren't well versed in computer hardware and graphic capabilities. Pick up this game, it's a heck of a lot better then many of the other FPSs released this summer. Read more Less
