I feared playing it coz it beat the hell out of my Graphics Card. Poor 6200.... rest in peace.

Didn't find it all that scary.Doom III had some excellent moments which shook me at times.I didn't find the part of Alma coming up at random places & turning to dust when approached to be that scary.But then again that's just my opinion.;)

after seeing so many good reviews on F.E.A.R, am gonna get it today. I hope that it's still available in store. Yes, I haven't yet played it and am certainly gonna try it :)

FIRST ENCOUNTER ASSUALT RECON is a good game. looks good and plays well but nothing scary. Doom 3 is scarier than this.

DOOM 3 is DUMB:mad:. they switch off all light and expect us to fight a stupid monster with a pistol. Though i feared i got annoyed after sometime. F.E.A.R is the best scary horror game. U can't expect ghost to jump from ceiling or wait around the corner. It really scared the **** outta me when the ghost suddenly appeared in the lift:D and really couldn't predict when it'll come.
F.E.A.R is the best

Please dont hit me with a brick.
I know I am an exception. I actually didnt find FEAR that scary. In the beginning I was like scared but then got used to it. The game that scared me most so far is DOOM 3 (which too got boring after playing for sometime).

i played Fear especially the little girl pops up from no where that makes scare but again when compared to doom3,silent hill2 and alone in the dark(the new nightmare) Fear is behind.that IMO

offtopic
has anyone played alone in the dark new nightmare i have played it both on psone and pc.i preferred joystick.this particular game has one of best orchestral sound,zombies and puzzles are mediocore.anyways i liked it.

man Grudge is the funniest!!! movie of all time. The ghost makes funny noise and some cat is screaming in the background:D i guess someone should start a thread for comedy movies which are mistaken to be horror:D F.E.A.R would have been more scary if Alma tried to kill us instead of scaring, unlike other scary games.

F.E.A.R has lots of lame attempts at scaring players. But the gameplay is awesome. Its just that its a wannabe scary game. This wannabeness is lame. On the other hand, Doom 3 has good scary moments but its way to irritating to play without lights. I didnt have the patience to play so I never played the 4th level. The scariest games i played were all less than 3 mb - 5 days a stranger, 6 days a sacrifice, trilby's notes and 7 days a skeptic.

I found F.E.A.R not scarry..but made me jumpy at times. At night with headphones....climbing down stairs..and suddenly the red girl appears....music is good...

Doom 3 was alarming..though not scary. Those monsters jumping out..and having to switch hands for torch/gun. Though at times the constant darkness was irritating (very).

By the was..F.E.A.R is supposed to be based on 'Japanese Horror' movie genre...interesting...though dont know where they picked up Paxton Fettel's eating habits..yuck...!!!! :)

When in my hostel I used to play FEAR, a friend of mine used to give me company. There were moments when both of us were scared.
Its one nice game.

I remember playing the first couple of levels like a nutcase, emptying clips at shadows... jumping, turning and firing from tiny noises. got used to it by the time i reached the next couple of levels.
