FEAR FILES demo out on XBLM and on the OXM disc!


The demo is interesting. All of the old conventions from FEAR titles are back. The graphics are very similar to the old FEAR games. The A.I. is sneaky as ever. The actual shooting is awesome as usual. The shotgun and slow motion is satisfying. This was all wonderful, but what the HECK is GOING HERE? The little bit of story that they tried to convey through a cutscene made NO SENSE! They hinted at first that this game would be set outside, but the demo takes place completely in the same types of environments all the other FEAR games have been set in. I really thought a new publisher would change this game a little. Monolith obviously did a wonderful job on the core game engine and the gameplay. No set the game in a new environment and add in some new enemies with new behaviors... That's all I want...
