I didn't find this game creepy/scary at all. It was short and rather meh. I wouldn't have downloaded it if I knew what it was like already.

What happened to the daze of 5 levels of Free game play, or so. Doom, Duke Nukem 3d etc. Oh well, think I'll pass on this Demo.

But, I'd like to know what you guys think of it!! ;)

Prolly like the Trailers?? Is my bet?

Blue :tease:


Well if you think about it, with todays graphics, if one level = 1.76GB, then 5 might be 8.8 GB :o

It would take me 3 days to download it with my speedy (sarcasm) DSL connection. Just like the good ol dial-up days. :P

Some games are OK, with Check Points, but IMO, if it's on the PC any PC Game should have Quick Save etc.

Anyhow, the Game sounds Great, other than the Check Point thing, I'll never like them, LOL! :roll:

Here's a link to a Video Review of FEAR 2 :: http://www.gamespot.com/pc/action/fear2 ... slot;img;1

from GameSpot, they gave it a 7.0. Man they are hard on games!! Wait a sec that didn't sound right :D

Well you know what I mean. I'll get it some day, the guy in the vid review, said 7 hours for the SP game, you gotta be kidding me!!

A brand NEW FEAR game, that has been in the works for a good long time and it's 7 Damn hours!! Please!!

So double that if you take your time, 14 hours, just don't get it, oh well. :banghead:

Though the vid review and game play looks really sweet to me!!

Yeah Scavy~

The good old Long A$$ Single Player days are way gone, FO3 and FC2 are the only Good long ones around recently it

seems. All new games have to be Console ready, Consoles are killing PC Gaming!! :banghead: :blackeye: :cray:

I don't get it, FC2 and FO3 have quick save and run on consoles, so why not FEAR2? I probably ask to much. Yeah, I do.

Like I said, it's not that I don't want the game, I just get sick of Consoles getting the red Carpet treatment and PC games get the shaft!! ;)

Blue

Guess, I'll have to Break out DOOM and Quake1 and 2 LOL!!

Yay! It's gonna unlock in an hour! Yep, I pre ordered it thru Steam. :yahoo: :clap: :Bananas: :Dancing: And, yes, I will play it in the dark with the sound turned up.

Steam also gives it a low Meta Score, only a 7.9. What's up with that? These reviewers don't like FEAR or what? I'll let you know how good I tink it is. Chris.

They're probably just under-estimating the public again, just like they do with TV and the movies. They probably think we don't have the attention span to play a long game anymore. As far as mys .... I'm sorry, what was I saying? :?

:D We just cross posted. I'm sure you're gonna love it Chris. enjoy! Hell, the demo was great and you're right, it's the perfect game for turning off the lights.

Did you see the new Nvidia Driver I posted about the other day? They suggest using it for the best performance in FEAR 2. I'm using it right now with no issues at all in any of the games I play. It's also a WHQL Candidate Driver so it will ikely go official soon ...
