F.E.A.R. 2 Now Actually Named F.E.A.R. 2
When we first heard that the proper sequel to horrific first-person shooter F.E.A.R. was to be christened Project Origin, a warm, immediately bored feeling washed over us. We were thankful not to have to type out all those damn periods — damn you, S.T.A.L.K.E.R.! — but lamented having another dull game title to throw on the pile. More »

More F.E.A.R., Different Name
As previously announced, developer Monolith Productions is back with a new F.E.A.R. game, but it's not called F.E.A.R. 2. And we had a chance to check it out at this year's E3. Since publishers changed during development, the game is now called Project Origin. Different titles aside, this actually is the sequel and is set in the same world F.E.A.R. was — though the game does follow Delta Force sergeant Michael Beckett instead of the mysterious Point Man. The devs are giving Beckett the same slow motion that Point Man had in the original game. More »

F.E.A.R. Fans Pick Dullest Name Ever For Sequel
With Vivendi retaining the rights to the F.E.A.R. name, developer Monolith Productions needed something unique, something catchy, something that's not a four-letter acronym for the follow up to the spark-filled first-person shooter. What did they wind up with? Something that's definitely not a four-letter acronym. What would have under normal circumstances been dubbed F.E.A.R. 2 will now be known as Project Origin. Memorable isn't it? Wait, what was it again? Right, Project Origin. More »

Free F.E.A.R. Maps 4 U
F.E.A.R. may be the Xbox 360's least talked about first-person shooter these days, what with the BioShock demo blessing Marketplace with its presence. That doesn't mean that Vivendi has forgotten its legion/smattering of F.E.A.R. fans, however, as a totally free new multiplayer map pack has made its way to Xbox Live today. There's a promise of "lush vegetation", a "dilapidated building" and "twisting tunnels" that will make the download easy to visualize while you wait for everyone to wrap up securing the BioShock demo.

F.E.A.R. (PS3)
We've seen the game before on both PC and 360, but hey, we've bought these shiny PS3s and already got sick of Mortal Kombat II. Yeah, there's Calling All Cars, but what if it sucks? It would break our heart and possibly injure our slightly-more-than-platonic Jaffe man-crush. So there's F.E.A.R. More »

And The F.E.A.R. Contest Winner Is...
Man, this contest almost was too close to call. And with me being on vacation, I'm feeling generous — Nice, if you will. And instead of picking one winner, we're picking two. And better yet, giving each respective winner his or her own copy of F.E.A.R. and his or her own post to gloat for winning the PS3 version, which has online support up to 16 players and has been outfitted with a new level and weapon. The lucky winner? Jermaine P., who came up with this dozy:

F.E.A.R. Contest: You Pick Teh Winner!
Since mini-Bash can't read and some of you can, we are letting Kotakuland decide who is going to bag the free copy of F.E.A.R. for the PS3. For late-comers, here's an explanation about the contest. Below, there are 12 finalists. We tried to narrow them down to entries that didn't include the words "Anus," "Rectum" or "Fahey" (sorry Fahey) and that stood out in our very subjective eyes. There were loads of good entries, but here are the ones we liked best:

GDC07: We Saw The Real Killzone Last Night
Despite telling enthusiast press outlet IGN that "No, Killzone won't be GDC at all" in February, Sony did show Killzone last night. Following the official announcement of the PLAYSTATION Edge developer software—an RSX profiling tool named GCM Replay and a set of lightweight, highly optimized libraries—Phil fired up a new look at Killzone, one of the Sony Worldwide Studios games to benefit from Edge.

F.E.A.R. Demo Now On Marketplace
The F.E.A.R. demo is now up on Xbox Live Marketplace. If it's the first level, it'll be a good overview of the full title, as the guys in the first level are pretty much the only guys you'll fight for the rest of the game. I know that sounds terrible, but it's a bit more satisfying than that. Also, a reminder: don't waste bullets on that creepy, spider-walking little girl. You can't kill her.

XP Gaming on a Mac: Surprisingly Playable
With the news that Apple is now quasi-officially condoning WinXP and OSX dual-boots on the new Intel-based Macs, you may be wondering if PC gaming is viable on a Mac yet. Well, the lads over at 1UP have got you covered, installing WinXP on an opalescent MacBook Pro and running Half-Life 2, Oblivion and F.E.A.R. through their paces. Surprisingly, all games were fully playable and ran fairly respectably... More »

Monolith Plans F.E.A.R. Sequels for PC, Next-Gen Machines
GameSpot reports that Monolith is planning to continue the F.E.A.R. series on both PC and Next-Gen platforms, but it won't carry the F.E.A.R. name. Vivendi Universal Games actually own the name F.E.A.R., while Monolith owns the characters. So in future iterations the game won't be called F.E.A.R., but it will continue the storyline and characters presented in the original. Confused yet? More »
