F.E.A.R. 2 Demo Drops Next Week
By Mike Fahey, 10:40 AM on Fri Jan 16 2009, 6,827 views
Those of you unable to make it to the New York City F.E.A.R. Lab this weekend won't be waiting long to get your hands on the sequel, with a demo being released next week.
Warner Bros. Interactive just let slip that a single player demo for F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin is making its way to the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and PC come January 22nd. Players will traipse through bloodied corridors, making little terrified squeaking noises in between emptying clip after clip of ammunition into whatever wants to kill you in the city of Auburn.
Mind you the PlayStation 3 demo is currently available to Qore subscribers, with the rest of the flock getting it the same day as everybody else. PC gamers are instructed to report to www.whatisfear.com when the time is right to secure their demo.
***F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin Demo Available January 22***
Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment today announced that the single player demo for F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin will be available for the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, Games for Windows® and PLAYSTATION®3 computer entertainment system beginning January 22. The demo will be available on Xbox LIVE® Marketplace for Xbox 360 and PlayStation®Network for the PLAYSTATION 3. Fans can visit www.whatisfear.com to download the Games for Windows version. The PLAYSTATION 3 demo is currently available exclusively to Qore™: Presented by the PlayStation®Network subscribers. The full game will ship to retailers in North America on February 10.
The F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin demo will offer a glimpse of the action, terror and suspense of the full retail version of the game. Players will maneuver through bloodstained corridors and hallways from several locations in the game, as they combat through various parts of the city of Auburn, which now lays in ruin after the catastrophic explosion that rocked the finale of F.E.A.R.
F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin, the highly anticipated sequel to the 2005 smash hit game, F.E.A.R., is a blend of advanced visceral combat mixed with seamless game pacing set inside a sinister and paranormal universe that begins shortly before the ending of F.E.A.R. A Special Forces squad is on a routine mission when the city of Auburn is rocked by a supernatural explosion. Alma, a girl with immense power and a thirst for revenge, has unleashed her wrath upon the city and thrown it into chaos. The squad must combat enemy forces and the supernatural as they struggle to find a way to stop Alma and uncover the mysterious forces arrayed against them before it’s too late.

Looks a little arcade-ish, might still give the demo a try though.

FEAR one was interesting, but I wouldn't buy it.

Really liked the demo! It really has some great moments (just in the demo) and has that very cool cinematic feel. I usually don't care for the futuristic type shooters, but this one is pretty cool. Fear one was OK, but the demo for this one is a big improvement over the first one. I may buy it, but not sure yet.

Really like the little mech-warrior thingy. Really looking forward to the MechWarrior: Living Legends mod.

Yeah, not a huge Mech fan (although I played the first MW) but those little Mech Suit things are cool. Not as restrictive as some in other games.

Finally played the demo...one word description.....spooky
The controls are setup a little different than I'm used to and I can't help wonnder why there are no lean options. I would think that COD and the first far Cry would have established that as a norm.
But as for a first person shooter there seems to be a familiarity to it even though I have not played F.E.A.R. 1. A lot of grizzly scenes. Perhaps fashbacks to Doom? Not sure.
Anyways if you get a chance, try the Demo. It's a thumbs up ride. Oh and make sure the batteriess are charged in your pacemaker. :)
