F.E.A.R. Platinum is one of the best games I have and I have some of the best games "old and new" that are out there. The graphics are simply great and the controles are tight.

Worth It [Posted on 2008-05-14]
I loved playing the game on my friend's computer, so when I saw FEAR along with it's two expansions, I had to get it.If you love the game, but held back initially, I would definately suggest getting this.

FEAR... my bullets! [Posted on 2008-05-19]
I enjoyed this game quite a bit. So far I have only gotten through the Main game and I would think about halfway through Extraction Point. I haven't played non-stop either, but when I do play I play for about 2-4 hours straight.

I'm going to do a quick and dirty list type review below using: 1 poor, 2 Bad, 3 Average, 4 Good, 5 Excellent. Also bear in mind I am using Half-life 1 & 2 as a benchmark... if you haven't played those, you should!

Story: Good
The story is fun and entertaining, although I'm not entirely sure I'm grasping the mesh of story lines that the developers intended. First Person Shooter Spec-Ops marines meets the Supernatural ala The Ring? Plays fun enough however.

Control: Excellent
The controls are standard W,A,S,D with a few extras... Flashlight, Leaning, etc. Plays like it belongs on the computer, not like a tragic port from a console. (ex: Halo (which I enjoyed on the xbox!))

Graphics: Excellent
I am rating the graphics as excellent based on the fact that some of the other FPS games currently on the market have phenominal over-the-top WOOHOO graphics, however no one has a machine capable of actually playing them! (ex: Crysis)

Single player: Excellent
So far this game has been extremely fun and the A.I. is incredibly smart at points. Some of the map design is obviously leaning in the A.I.'s favor, for example a lot of the rooms and buildings always have two ways around and the A.I. knows it when assaulting you, but that's okay they need the help as far as I'm concerned. :) If you are an experienced FPS player just start out on hard, moderate isn't worth your time and effort.

Multiplayer: Unknown
Sorry, I haven't tried... yet. I'm not really itching to try it either. There are games out there that are made for multiplayer (Team Fortress 2, Tribes, Battlefield). I prefer to have a few games where I don't have to rely on my internet connection to play.

Hope this helps someone out there. The game has been out for 3 years, but I am happy I waited and scooped it all up in one fell swoop for $30! I gave the game 4 stars due to the odd story line, and there are better plots out there, even for FPS games... no, seriously, there is! LOL!

Fear [Posted on 2008-06-05]
I have played this game very little.So far I was not too impressed.Maybe it will get better.

My favorite game of all time. [Posted on 2008-06-30]
A ton of game for 30 bucks. Great graphics and sound! Does not take a killer machine to run. Slow motion makes for a lot of fun. Scared the crap out of me a few times. Challenging AI. A must for anyone that likes FPS. 1 more thing, watch out for Alma...lol
