Review: F.E.A.R 3
There is something special about “scary” entertainment. Whether it be a movie, a book, or a video game, there is nothing like that thrill you get from being scared. Sitting on the edge of your seat and wondering what’s around the corner, heart thumping in your ears, and unlike so many other emotions fear will linger with you long after the moment is over. Video games are still young, and using them to create fear isn’t as easy as it is for Stephen King or George Romero. The tricky part is balancing fear with gameplay, because unlike movies and books, games give a person control, which can be more immersive if used right; or it can totally break the experience. F.3.A.R, which is the third installment of the series, has had time to fine tune its scare tactics, but does it succeed in being both scary and fun to play? Hit the break for our full review.
