F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin for Xbox 360 Reviews by Gamers

Everything I loved about the first F.E.A.R. is back in it's very solid single player campaign/story. I have not played much multiplayer so I won't say much about that except that they took out the slow-mo, which brings it down in my opinion-makes it too much every other multiplayer out there. The slow-mo made it stand out in player v player.

The best parts in single player, however, take many forms from great slow-mo bullet time reactions, smart enemy A.I. that actively (and often successfully on harder difficulties) tries to flush you out with grenades and tactics, a tremendous amount of fantastic gore and enemy conversation that can be down right funny at times (as you're injecting them with bullets). The weapons are satisfying and my favorite shotgun in any video game is back with tremendous effect. I LOVE IT. The sound design in this game is also the best advocate for why you want surround sound-absolutely the best.

The levels are extremely straight forward and while that isn't always a bad thing, some choice may have been nice in a roadblocked/fenced off city that for some reason, you can't jump over that van. There are also "hitches" in the game play that seem to halt the game for split seconds at a time. It is a bit distracting-it often hapens as the game highlights an interactive object coming into range. The graphics themselves are a little flat/grainy on the 360 that I didn't see in the PC. Minor problems to what is, at its core, a great FPS. I really liked it.
