F.E.A.R. Platinum

It holds up, just as good as I remembered.

GOG version plays very nicely on Win 11. Good AI and graphics still well work in 2025.

This game is probably one of the first ground breaking titles that really showed off destructible environment and impressive looking particle effects, aside from all the engine perks the game is tremendous fun. Flying through office blocks kicking replica soldiers is probably one of the best feelings in all of fps games. Slow motion really did help this game shine as pulling off impressive kills and seeing all the paper and dust flying about gives a sense of realism to everything. For 2005 there was nothing quite like it, now it is sorta a horror game which might put people off but I assure you that nothing in this game is tremendously scary there might be a few jump scares here and there but their manly for shock value to keep you on your toes. Without the horror aspects the game would still be marvellous in its own right. Now the 2 dlcs are alright especially extraction point which picks up where the base game left off however peruses mandate isn't as good as EP it is still worth a play, for £7 this game and the dlcs it is a package you won't regret buying, the sequels do not live up to this games standard so do not buy those in my opinion. This game normally goes on sale so if your tight on cash you can pick it up for cheap these days so in conclusion if you like FPS and Horror genre you'll like this. ;]

This is game was next level then and reamains so now. Eternal classic of FPS genre. Yes some locals maybe boring, but man this action is somewhat the best I've ever played - smart AI, great graphics and gunplay makes it perfect!

As far as i am concerning, no other first person shooter has a better slow motion system. The fantastic feeling of overcoming the odds and taking out squads as you slip around corners taking them out is like no other. I've played this for well over 100 hours on steam, and I've almost come back for more. Is it dated as all hell and kinda buggy sometimes? Yeah absolutely. Does the game hold up? Absolutely. The only thing that's a bit of a drag is the campaign's pacing. The middle section in Armacham Offices take a huge section of the game. The game is also Just a heads up you will need some patches and DLLs to make it run on modern machines, alone with more supporterd resolutions. I'd also recommend enabling EAX, especially if you have set up that'll benefit from it. The sound design is immaculate in this game, and it's a pity a bunch of it is locked behind some janky crap from a decade ago. Check PCgamingwiki and you're good to go. Just don't play Perseus mandate. it's janky and buggy and isn't as fun. Extraction Point is a great expansion, adding more enemies, weapons, areas and mechanics, including punching doors open. The only problem is that once you've played this I don't know what else to recommend. Trepang 2 I suppose, but as of now that's early access.
