Some of you say the physics in HL2 are better. But I think it depends in what way, the physics in FEAR remind me of action movies the way they keep shooting and twirl the ragdoll around in slow mo. I love it to bits and I have only just stopped playing it this moment

First let me say that I like FEAR very much. I played the sp and mp demos quite a bit and pre-ordered the game. I got it yesterday and started playing both mp and sp. Its definitely fun.

However, I don't think that FEAR comes close to be as good as either HL2 or Doom3. In particular, the inventiveness of the story, the detailed enviroments and the uniqueness of the characters in HL2 makes FEAR look like... well not much. Its fun, but imo definitely not as good as either.

I am enjoying FEAR a whole lot more than I am HL2, thats for sure! FEAR KICKS ASS!!! Whooo!

I hope there is good mod support to make the life of the game longer.

I dl the FEAR demo a few days ago...and ever since then ive been drawn into its amazing graphics and gameplay. I cant wait to get the full version. As for story wise i think FEAR seems to have a much better story then hl2, becouse there seems to be much more to build on as ive seen from the demo; but i cannot be sure as i only have the demo:P I have to comment that the lighting in FEAR is spectacular and that even after 3 days off constant playing, the game doesnt seem to get boring..even if it is a short demo >

I was thinking about FEAR or HL2 GOTY edition...

I choosed HL2 because it was GOTY.... if FEAR becomes it I'm going to buy it!

>The A.I. seals the deal for me, I just can't get enough of how lifelike they are. The slowmo is executed perfectly too.

Not played the full game yet but I doubt I will enjoy it as much as Half Life 2. As for Condemned, you'll either have to wait a long time or buy an Xbox 360 to play it on.

In the past year or so, if I had to pick 5 FPS games to make the top list I would put it in this order;

1) Half-Life 2
2) F.E.A.R.
3) Quake 4
4) Doom 3
5) Battlefield 2

I couldn't really think of a good one for #5 so I put Battlefield 2... its OK.
Quake 4 was pretty sweet, but it only took me a couple days to beat, mp is okay but it gets old after an hour or so of playing so I have to take a break. As far as Half-Life 2 and F.E.A.R. go... well they are both pretty sweet so it was almost a toss up, but then I thought, okay I've beaton fear, and mp is pretty fun but... look at Half-Life 2's multigame/multiplayer experience. Its not JUST Half-Life 2, its Half-Life 2 DM, CTF, DoD: Source, CS: Source. If I get bored of one sort of multiplayer, I can switch to another, if I get bored of F.E.A.R.'s multiplayer... well... it will only be F.E.A.R. so my vote has to go to Half-Life 2 for the game of the year
