The most realistic looking and scariest game I have ever played.

FEAR is one of those games that I heard was good, but it took me a while to find out for myself. As I am not a huge fan of the horror genre or the FPS genre either. I didn't really think this was my type of game. But once I saw the graphics and I found it for cheap on half.com I went ahead and splurged.

Boy I am glad that I splurged on this game...as I cannot stop playing it. It is absolutely the scariest game I have ever played. The freaky things that happen around you that I accidently shoot at then the disappear. It is truly a haunting game. The graphics are freaking great as well. The smoke and shards of glass and wall that come off as you shoot them are beautiful.

This is also some of the best AI I have seen to date in a game. They won't just sit back and wait for you to attack. They go out and find you. They flank you they throw gernades...they know when you are coming if you run or use a flashlight. It just adds tons to the already great game.

Also the playing style that is Max Payne esque with the matrix slow mo makes it all the more fun to play...and gives you a little advantage to the what would be impossible odds that you face. Although this game hasn't won me over to other FPS games yet...it is truly a great start and such a well thought through game! I truly wish there was more like this.
