FEAR 2: Project Origin is the follow-up to Monoliths 2005 FEAR: First Encounter Assault Recon. While the sequel manages to improve upon the creep-factor in both presentation and quality, the game seems only average in aspects such as outdoor visuals...
Abstract: The original F.E.A.R. hit all of the right notes in providing a challenging FPS experience wrapped up in an amazingly scary horror setting. F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin offers up improved gameplay and better presentation, but the horror elements don’t se...
