F.3.A.R. – a title clearly designed by the guy in school who had an unhealthy obsession with typing ‘55378008’ into his calculator and turning that shit upside down! Anyone playing it – or are you too busy being irritated by the fact that it did that annoying ‘make the number ‘3’ part of the actual name’ thing? It’s annoying for me too – in general conversation I refer to the game as FEAR 3, as you do. When I write it? Well, I like trying to be consistent -so it has to be F.3.A.R.!
I haven’t had a chance to play the game yet, but I’m a bit keen. I enjoyed the second game – it had a solid set of shooting mechanics, and felt rewarding – but I’m not the greatest fan of co-op shooters, which is the direction F.3.A.R. appears to be heading in.
Also – the story appears to be approaching that ‘so convoluted and pointless it’s hard to even care anymore’ level.
But, like I said, I haven’t had the chance to spend much time with the game yet, so I thought I’d alert you guys to ex-Kotaku Editor Junglist’s view on the game, since he’s taken the time to create an in-depth video review.
