I hate FEAR. I hate grey color after FEAR and Condemned. I hate office-type rooms after Fear.
WTF with Monolith??? They made such nice games like NOLF1/2 and TRON2.0 and now what? j.A.S.S. - jUST Another Shitty Shooter?
I want NOLF3!

i agree with you that those office type rooms etc but monolith always did great games... the bullet time was good and the story also wasnt that bad... maybe the will fix the level design
FEAR on the pc back in the day(2005) was awesome, the console versions were crap.
i hope this new one follows in the same steps as the first one on the pc and doesn't turn out to be another shitty console port like splinter cell DA etc.

FEAR has an awesome story.. there's just no narrative. There's a big difference.
When it comes to actual plot, FEAR > Condemned by a long shot.
not in my opinion it doesnt, the whole alma/cannibal guy (forgot his name) was just crappy imo. plot, narrative, story....everything sucked in it. the gamplay was good, shooting mechanics and the AI where top, some of the best ever imo. but then the games setting and story where just crap/non existant. after the first level you practically saw all the environments in the whole game...lol

k... it still has a better story than a whole lot of FPS games though. It's actually quite good. Certainly one of the best FPS of its year--in a year packed with great FPS too. The whole, "lol there's one environment" complaint is such an old hat. There are good shooters that literally take place in one environment (which FEAR doesn't, and FEAR 2 won't).
I wonder if... You have supernatural powers of some kind in this game. It's been revealed through the original games plot that you're indeed Alma's son, and you're brother (you know, "the cannibal") was raised/developed with psychic abilities in mind. This already explained their use of bullet time in FEAR (your enhanced reflexes are actually psychic reflexes), but it'd be cool if they expanded upon this.
Monolith hasn't lost their touch. They still create some of the most compelling first person games around.
