Pros

Very Good Multiplayer Suite, Excellent Sound, A.I. Makes Good Use of Tactics, CoOp Gameplay, Runs Well Even on MidRange Machines
Excellent multiplayer modes; co-op adds some fun and replay value to the campaign; visually impressive.
Core shooting action is satisfying, Complementary powers make coop a blast, Fing Run is an unusual and exciting multiplayer mode.

Cons

No Fear to Speak Of, Linear Scripted Gameplay, Story Makes Little or No Sense.
Hackneyed single-player campaign story and characters; low on the ol' fear factor; hard to find people to play with.
Unimpressive visuals, Story lacks scares or surprises.

Gamers have a love/hate relationship with the F.E.A.R. series. They love the first one and hate the second. The first was a satisfying, intelligent and occasionally terrifying FPS, the second was… an FPS. The third attempts to get back to the...
