THere were 2 things that makde FEAR good. Some really nice horror and some amazing gunfights, a lot of which had to do with the AI as well.

F3AR (stupid name too) had neither of those things. The horror was obviously absolutely terrible. Now on to to actual gameplay.

Three things describe why the game was actually bad. AI was not as good, regenerating health, and two guns at a time. When all three are put together you get another shitty Halo, Cod, etc. etc.

I think you're wrong on the second one. I found the gameplay and gunfights to be great on medium difficulty.

Also, I really don't care about howmany guns they let me use at a time but I agree its stupid that they only allow 2. Regenerating health I actually like as it keeps thing fast paced and I don't have to look for health.

So to me the game had no scares but terrific gunplay and very interesting multiplayer and coop options neither of the fear games have had before.

Mayeb medium dfficulty was the key, because I played through it on fearless and it was just boring crouch, uncrouch, shoot, repeat. That is how the game was beat basically.

As for regenerating health and why it's a terrible idea, look at my sig's post, since there is no point in me rehashing it all here. In the end the gunplay was just mediocre, and even LOOKED mediocre. FEAR had shitty environment graphics, but they effects graphics, eventhough they weren't high tech, were just amazing.
