Sony Playstation 3: F.E.A.R. (First Encounter Assault Recon)

By: Chuck Schoene - Published June 08, 2007 at 8:54 PM EDT - Writer Archive

Conclusion

Sierra’s horror FPS is a solid port to the PS3 with just a few drawbacks. Given the lack of titles in the console's current library this will be a must have for most fans. With great AI and a decent online multiplayer, gamers will come back to this game several times. Had Sierra dealt with the long load times and added communication to the online feature this would have rivaled many FPS on any console; unfortunately they did not.

  • +Great action
  • +Some of the best AI on a next-gen
  • +Some of the scariest scenes since the original Resident Evil
  • +Fun Online play with lots of options
  • +Engrossing sound effects
  • +Environment destruction

  • -Long load times
  • -Nothing new from previous versions
  • -Online play dependent on Host connection rate
  • -A feel that Sierra did not give a full effort
