FEAR? Seriously? Goddammit. The first one stands among the most overrated titles in history in my eyes and the second one was so bland I couldn't even finish it.

Sorry, but I have to ask. If you didn't like the first why did you bother with the second (which was worse than the first)?

Thought I'd give the series a chance to redeem itself, sometimes sequels are a lot better than original, like Neverwinter Nights 2 and Baldur's gate 2 and Half-Life 2. Of course, in this case I was wrong and I made the same mistake with Crysis and Crysis Warhead.

You didn't like them either? I simply cannot get myself to enjoy them at all, too grey, repetetive, enclosed, incredibly predictable ripped off "horror" elements, cheap trick AI (look, let's surround the player in a cutscene) and gimmicky gameplay (slow motion was done 100 times better in Max Payne). The shooting part has nothing in games such as Half-Life 2 or Modern Warfare and if you want a scary game go play Condemned (both of them). I know the majority disagrees but this is how I feel at least.

Crysis Warhead was a spin-off (also made by a completely different studio) and not a sequel.

Was at $7.50 at Wal Mart, you can get it for $10 at eBay. BTW I got Fear2 2 months ago ...... for 5 bucks.

Just saying that playing Fracture is worth it, when you get it for $15 or cheaper.

Fear 2 is a good game. A pretty good one even. Not as strong on the horror side, but better as a shooter this time around.
