F.E.A.R. Platinum

Just wanted to comment on games state out of the box. I am on windows 10 and it worked just fine with my weird resolution too (21:9 2560 x 1080).

This is the first game in a while that ive felt compelled to play through start to finish like this. not a very long game but it was very fun, but may have benefitted from a greater variety of enemy types but as it stands as a like 17 year old game i loved it

Hey I may be old school but this game is EPIC! I only recently discovered GOG a few years back when I picked up a copy of Messiah from back in the day and have ended up here after a few purchases. This game rocks on our home PC running windows 11 the mrs discarded and went back to her macbook, so I took the rains and started blowing things heads off with my favourite shot gun. Buy it. Its awesome.

This is one of my favorite games. I played it for the first time a few years ago and thought it was OK, but after playing it again recently it has earned its place on my top games list. I'm pretty picky about my games. I value gameplay over story any day and don't like things getting in the way of my shooting (cutscenes, RPG/upgrade menus, etc). There are a couple cutscenes in this game, but they felt mild and tolerable. So I'll give them a pass. I could sit down and expect to PLAY the game. And I enjoyed every minute of it. The guns are satisfying. I think FEAR has the best pistol in FPS history, and that shotgun just might have the same honor. The melee and slow-mo are fabulous. FEAR has excellent gameplay mechanics and it makes the gun fights fun. The level design is pretty linear, and the environments not too varied, but the design is top-notch for combat and story-telling, and that's what's important. Every combat area is a well thought out and planned arena to pit you against some of the best AI you'll face. The way they tell the story through optional environment interaction is my favorite way to do story-telling in an FPS: it's there if you want it, and you can skip it if you don't want it. The horror is done right, too. This game has stunning ambiance. It has some of the best lighting I've seen in a game. It's scary and frightening, but it never forgets what it is: an FPS. Enough raving. FEAR is an excellent game and I think you should play it. I did have to apply a couple fixes to get it working properly for me, and I could nitpick a couple aspects of the game here and there (e.g., I wish movement speed were faster overall), but other than that I have nothing to complain about. You should play this game! PS: I thought the expansions were great and I recommend them. I also really liked FEAR 2 and 3 and recommend those--just beware they are not like FEAR (1), but they are great shooters nonetheless.
