It's totally duke nukem fail. This is not what I was expecting. It's a stripped down horror story that has a control scheme about as good as call of duty. They really dropped the ball on this. I have yet to see anything that scares the crap out of me. It's a generic piece of work. They went so far as to say "Let's make this new! We'll have ghost style zombies with bombs on their chest!" Yeah.... can we please let the zombie thing go? The only saving grace the game has is the the lighting going out and eerie music playing. But then it loses it's charm after that. A few sections where Alma pops in and out, those are good. But the negatives out weigh the positives. Duke Nukem was a game you knew was going to suck and thus you had no expectations for it. But Fear 3? I had high hopes for it after the second game. The ending there was a major cliffhanger. They failed to connect it properly to this game.

Don't get me wrong. Going back to the Pointman from FEAR 1 was great. But they needed more time in the script and story writing department in my opinion. Such dissapointment for a franchise that was high on my list.

The sound/sound effects, Alma and graphical effects vs the bad engine, horrible writing, and the obsession in gaming with everything having to be a resident evil clone, makes me give this game a solid 2.5/5.
