GamingShogun reviews Monolith's FEAR 2: Project Origin, giving it high marks for immersive supernatural creepiness. They also praise the ending for being one of the most 'messed-up' in history, although they do stipulate that is said, 'in a good way'. After playing the game, I would agree, but I digress. For those of you unfamiliar with FEAR 2, it is basically a first-person shooter game set inside of what could be called a horror movie. It has copious amounts of gore, scares, and action.

One of the key features which really pushed FEAR over the top were its scary moments, and there were plenty. Bizarre scenes and encounters which seemed to jump straight out of the gigantic, mutated minds of Clive Barker, Dario Argento, and Hideo Nakata. I am VERY happy to report that FEAR 2: Project Origin does not disappoint in this department. The supernatural encounters are genuinely scary and are sure to make even the most die-hard PC gamer jump at times...

    I remember the demo. I played it a fair few times, but it felt all over the place; like it couldn't staple down a single gameplay type. It was a pretty sweet demo, but if the full game is anything like it, I wouldn't be rushing out to buy it.

    BTW, I see you took my advice on renaming GamingShogun's abbreviation to GSho .

      LOL, Absolutely Red 9. Advice taken and implemented! I felt the game was a mixed bag too. It definitely had places where it shines and others that are honestly a bit disappointing. The ending did kill me though. Never saw that coming, not in a million years!
