    This Game for his age is absolutely genius. If you play with a friend and an Second Controller it makes it more genius and fun. The story is good but not too deep. The levels and actions you go through with your friend is just fun.

    Worst one in the series, nothing will ever be better than the first one, but at least the 2nd one was still terrifying. However the 3rd installment was utter sh*t, it took out all the horror and replaced it with more action. Very sad how they f*cked up the last part of this franchise. Weapons were pretty cool, controls and gameplay were smooth but graphics looked very dated for 2011.    5/10

    The FEAR series never disappoints in the third (and final) game so far. Graphically this game is one of the best I've seen on any system.

Graphically this game is one of the best I've seen on any system. Just the amount of detail put into everything from buildings to little things like a bottle on a shelf is overwhelming. I really like the way this game looks. The levels are also the best I've seen in the series - from the ghetto level to the supermarket and of course the suburbs. The developers really knocked it out of the park with this one. Plus the multiplayer modes are a lot of fun too and you can level up the more you play these modes as well as the single campaign.

    There are two negative things about this game however. The crappy co op mode. It's almost unplayable. You'd think they would have used an even ratio split screen mode like the one in Resistance:Fall of man but no, they split the screens at these awkward 30 degree angles so that you can't even really see what you're doing (this is amplified even more so on a TV screen under 30 inches). Yeah, so that's a pretty big failure. And the other thing (which many pointed out) is that the game is pretty short. I mean, you could beat it in 6 hours maybe. On that note though maybe they spent too much time designing the levels (which are huge) instead of focusing on making the game longer. The game does have a few scares, but if you're familiar with the horror genre it definitely won't make you lose any sleep. But overall I'd give this game a 8.5 if I could, a really good experience for fans of the shooter genre. Fingers crossed for a part 4.    … Expand

    Another amazing Graphic improvement. I love how you can play as both brothers, I always enjoy the creepy moments and pops ups. The Final boss was a nice touch since the other games didn't really have a boss to kill.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The Game was brilliant. The graphics were great, (not amazing) but great. The campaign is really fun and it is fairly scary, (not very). The very last level is the scariest level, (when you being chased by that invisible ghost monster thing that you can't kill) and you have to destroy the memories of your past before the invisible scary monster thing kills you. Only thing bad is that I sort of lost the plot on the bridge level. I loved how difficult the game was in some parts, and easy in others, it gives it a nice challenge. Two parts I found hard were the bit where your in a back garden and theres a robot with a rocket launcher, while other guys are shooting at you, and there's a REALLY hard bit when two of the teleporting guys drop in from the ceiling at the same time. They have loads and loads of hit points and they have these really powerful automatic guns that shoot high calibre incendiary bullets. A few of these shots kill you quickly. Also, these guys can teleport into, and out of walls, which makes 2 of them hard to kill. Hint: Pick up a riot shield on that bit or you'll just get slaughtered.

    But yeah, that game is amazing and I thoroughly enjoyed playing through it    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This being one of the first major games of 2011, I decide to rent it out and see how good it was. I'm afraid to say that if you are a fan of the series then it has probably ruined it for you. The plot of the game is that you play the role of Pointman who is the second born of Alma. At the beginning of the game, Pointman is about to be executed until Alma's first child (Fittel) comes to the aid and kills the guards. The player finds out that Fittel is a spirit who is in the real world due to his psychic link with his brother. The player also finds out that Pointman had shot his brother through the brain. The player then has to go through missions to try and get the characters Pointman and Fittel closer to Alma. On the way, the player will find out that Micheal Becket (the main character from F.E.A.R 2) was raped by Alma and that the child is on its way. After that Fittel basically just kills Micheal for no reason. Pointman and Fittel then travel to see Alma and witness the birth of the child. However, before the player is able to witness the birth of the baby, you have to fight Harlan Wade who is apparently a beast from Silent Hill (also he is meant to be dead which makes little sense). After the very easy fight even on hard mode, the player will witness the birth of the baby and will have to different endings depending on how well the player did throughout the game.

    Positives
    I like the idea that however well you do throughout the game will depend on which son lives or dies
    Good controls
    I like that it is a two player because there is a lack of two player games in the game market like the different modes. For example: - **** run

    Negatives
    Story makes no sense as you will be in one place and then be in a completely different place
    Boring as a one player game

    The Rating
    I would give F.E.A.R 3 a rating of 5 out of 10

Gone are the competitive deathmatches and base capturing. There is also a co-operative survival mode in Contractions. What separates this from other Nazi Zombies copycats is that you have to collect crates and drop them off at safehouses in order to get weapons and ammo, but pistol ammo is infinite. There are 20 waves, and each of the 3 maps provides a different challenge. The campaign is EXTREMELY short even on the highest difficulty. If you are thinking of playing this game, be sure to have a co-op buddy otherwise you will be left dissapointed and feeling robbed of your time and money. The campaign allows your co-op partner to play as Fettel, who can possess enemies (take control of them) but can't use weapons while not inside a body. This is something very unique and satisfying, but also very useful in some circumstances. Played in co-op, the campaign is very fun. The controls- being on a console, of course- continue the F.E.A.R. tradition of feeling awkward, but they work pretty well in Fear 3. Having been made by a different developer, it does feel different to the previous games in that the game engine is different and the slight RPG element of unlocking upgrades for leveling up your player by completing challenges and generally playing the game. In all aspects, F3AR is a co-op heavy game. The story is very poor, not to mention short. Graphics and voice acting aren't much better either. But the game does make for some fun times when played co-operatively. Just don't expect a masterpiece. This game was clearly rushed and on a tight budget, as evident by the glitchy trophies for both consoles. Certainly don't expect a complete package. Think of it as a good version Terminator Salvation and you're pretty much there.… Expand

You can play single player or coop for the campaign and the coop is fantastic. You can play as Fettel the brother of Point Man who he killed. Fettel can possess other soliders so both players can play with guns. The gun play is great and controls are smooth. The creepy future settings look great and the FEAR atmosphere is still here and there are some freaky moments. The guns sound and ambiences are great but the multiplayer. There is no team deathmatch or veresus mode which is a shame because a game like this could add something to those modes. I like the other modes though theres a wave mode and possesoin modes.

F.E.A.R. 2 was good too, but in exactly the opposite way: its graphics and level design were INCREDIBLY sleek and polished, and the whole experience bristled with a delicious sense of knowing, black comedy. . . but it wasn't scary at all. The designers of F.E.A.R. 3 were clearly attempting to bring back the raw-edged creepiness of F.E.A.R. 1 without losing the high production values and sophistication of F.E.A.R. 2. . .oh, and making the franchise into a co-op game. Unfortunately, these objectives all got in each others' way, creating a result that -while by no means a disaster- will be a disappointment to the franchise's fans. A lot of the fear that made F.E.A.R 1 great came from the fact that -aside from terrifying psychic visions of the creepiest little girl this side of The Ring- your character is almost always *alone.* It would seem impossible to feel alone in a story that provides you with a teammate, but the designers did their best to preserve the sense of isolation. . .by providing you with a teammate who you don't care about and don't trust. This holds true, by the way, whether you play as The Point Man or Paxton Fettel. Both characters were probably written to come off as tough anti-heroes, but they're both so loathsome that you find yourself rooting for the monsters to come and kill them both. The problem, of course, is that hating your character (and you will) makes it pretty much impossible to be afraid. The polish of F.E.A.R. 2, unfortunately, was another casualty. Although there are still some elements of dark humor, and there's still some decent eye candy, the designers seem to have always opted for what they thought might look *scary* whenever it came in tension with what might look *cool.* In practice, that means a lot fewer 'mechs, superweapons, and brightly lit kill-fests, and a lot more dark, twisty, claustrophobic, mazes filled with enemies who hit you from behind. . . which you'll be grateful for, since a) it takes them so long to find you that you get bored; and b) that's the only way for you to find them.

    In all, a disappointing near-miss.    … Expand

    Also the developers seem to think swearing is really cool, the AI swears at the most unnecessary times and they swear A LOT, way, WAY too much. I made a short video showing just how brutally often they swear. Search for "AI Swearing" on YouTube if you wanna see.

    I simply couldn't get immersed in this game. By far, it is beyond your average FPS title, but what it delivers has been executed so many times, and shows all too noticeable in the gameplay. From what I can tell, the story is superb, and graphics are on par for the gruesome visuals, but again, the impression of what I got from the gameplay kept pushing me away. Decent, but not standout.

    This game is brilliant and by far one of the top picks for best co-operative game. The game is situated around a horror experience, so anyone looking for a typical non violent shooter should probably step aside. However the game seems to be more combat than anything with 2 players able to team up in the campaign to share the F.E.A.R. together or go it alone. But don't be looking for a fantastically awe inspired story that F.E.A.R. bought us a few years ago, instead the game is more situated around the gameplay, and the gameplay aspect is fantastic but it would have been nice for a more darker story to have been told rather that one simple mission. The campaign isn't extremely long but still warrants some exploration to find hidden 'psychic links' and scares. If you don't like campaigns or story that much well then you will be pleased to know the F.3.A.R. has a lot to offer with co-op and competitive multiplayer (note it is not team deathmatch style). 4 game modes situate around you and your best buddies or randoms over the online universe either trying to team up as a group or earn the most points for valuable leveling up by earning kills etc. Overall this game is brilliant, it may not be a huge blockbuster but the game certainly surprises in its co-operative aspects and is a must buy for fans of the series and horror genres.    … Expand

    First off let me just say when i first saw the trailers for this game I was not expecting this game to be good. I picked it up on day 1 because I wanted to finish the story and because I had purchased all the FEAR games on day 1. I was pleasantly surprised with this game! I enjoyed it. It's not my favorite FEAR game but its definitely a freaking sweet game. Rent it or Buy it.First off let me just say when i first saw the trailers for this game I was not expecting this game to be good.

    Really good and solid first person shooter, but way too short, as I don't care about multiplayer or co-op. The singleplayer campaign of Fear 2 was double the length.

    Nice multimedia as expected, but the AI has taken a dip. Fortunately, the multiplayer elements and Challenges keep things fresh.

    Despite a few rays of fun, F.E.A.R. 3 is a production that offers gloom, minus any impending sense of doom. As an action-based first-person shooter it's solid enough to stand alongside is contemporaries in the faceless, grey-brown ranks of the FPS genre, but it does nothing to stand out from the status quo.

    It may not be the most epic shooter experience out there, but F.E.A.R. 3 eloquently satisfies its niche by giving us a refreshing alternative to the played out machismo theme in most of the shooters out there.
