This game friggin rocks. Go download the demo here if you think your PC can handle it. I’d say its a comfy tie between Half-life 2 and Doom 3 as far as graphics go. The best part, however is the bullet time action and the “big gun” you get later in the demo that burns the flesh off of your enemies, leaving a skeleton behind.

All in all, Fear’s demo has made my mouth water for its blend of awesome FPS action and scarry as shit horror aspect.

At one point, you end up walking down a hallway with blood on the ceiling, and if you shoot the blood, it pours down and onto the floor. With the mix of some nicely placed shock horror bits, the game looks like it’ll be best played at night with headphones on…

Have fun!

I’ve been hearing good things. The more I hear the more likely it is I’ll be checking it out.

I’ll try this out, I guess. At least downloading it can’t be as 0MG B4NDW1DTH as HL2’s demo is (you have to download like 80% of the full 3-GB game even though you’re only getting two levels).

EDIT: Wait, I stand corrected: it’s 600+ MB, which on a 56k modem when you can’t use a “download-resuming” program might as well be 80% of 3 GB.
