    hands down ****ing awesome and best game I've played in ages.

    everything fear had going for it and improved upon and added to.

    ny0m ny0m ny0m.

    a little jerky at max settings at certain points for me during the demo but thankfully not during any of the combat.

    only copped after I'd nailed a few guys at one part that you can flip over tables and stuff for cover and also open car doors for more cover.

    quality.

    quite jumpy too..more so than the original :)

    ftfw for 2 words -
    laser gun...mech suit

    Absolutely loved it. Its the little touches, like if you have a logitech G15 keyboard the LCD screen on it flickers in sync with the game. Amazing!

    Do want!
    Oh man, I love Valve, Steam rocks.

    EDIT: I now want this game more than I have ever wanted a game before, GoW2 can get in line, this is it.
    They have fixed my main issue with FEAR, the obvious switch between horror & action, I nearly left a furrow in my jocks twice there, and I wasn't properly immersed either (My doing, lights on someone else in the room.).

    Used a rapidshare link, excellent :D

    So........basically within 5 mins it was the scariest game I had ever played, well...in recent memory :eek:

    There were 2 things of note for me :)

    1.
    When walking through that corridor i was reminding myself...'its just a game, stay calm...theres no reason to.....RUNN......jesus runnnn.....feck feck feck ..WTF !!!!!....okay...ok....lets just sit in this corner here and wait....your not being a scaredy cat...its tactics...yeah...that it...tac...OH JESUS HELP ME!!!'


    2.
    There should be warning for anyone with the slightest heart condition, its ridiculous !!!


    Excellent variety of weapons for a demo, though I was dissappointed they left out walking, and the leaning .
    Also the mech part does nothing for me, just confusing. Jumping from a tense-horror-shooter straight into a mech shoot everything game

    there was this one bit where I was walking into the train station I think and the lights where flickering and I heard something falling over in the distance behind me, so I turn around AND THE NAKED ADULT ALMA IS STANDING RIGHT THERE. I literally jumped right away from the screen shouting "OH HOLY SH*T!!!!"

    Seriously, like Sean, I had to mentally keep reminding myself it was just a game.

    Graphically though its not that impressive, kinda wish it lived up to its 5.9 Vista rating. I can run it at 1920x1200 with everything maxed. But still I don't think this game is selling itself on its graphics, more on the pants soiling tension :D

    It runs pretty good, although it suffers from the autosave stuttering of the first one. I hope they enable an option to disable it, I prefer to use quicksave anyway.

    I loved the first F.E.A.R.
    but I didn't think too highly of the demo. Just felt frustrated the entire time.
