Excellent - You'll fire thousands of rounds in hundreds of white-knuckled shootouts facing everything from soldiers to grotesques to specters, and tromp around in a totally bad-ass mech suit. Most importantly, you'll love every minute of it.

Excellent - I can't recommend Monolith's sequel highly enough. It might not have the jaw-dropping visuals to rival Killzone 2, but it's a hugely satisfying shooter that'll have you clinging onto that controller or mouse throughout its tension-filled campaign.

Good - If you're a fan of the FPS genre, the FEAR series has always been and will continue to be worth playing for the ambience and AI alone.

Good - Playing F.E.A.R. 2 is a worthwhile way to pass the time while we wait for the inevitable next installment.

Good - In many ways, F.E.A.R. 2 feels like the middle chapter in a trilogy, and there's certainly enough momentum here for at least one more run.

Good - The magic of FEAR is certainly in position. That basic pleasure of time slowing, of watching a death ballet unfold as glass shatters, masonry crumbles and bodies cartwheel with morbid elegance - it's all intact, and it's as incredible to behold as ever.

Good - What you get is an atmospheric shooter with a lot of tried-and-true concepts that fails to push the envelope. Fans of horror and first-person shooters will find it a nice blend of the two.

Good - With F.E.A.R. 2, Monolith has crafted a solid follow-up to F.E.A.R. It's a good shooter, bordering on great at times, but it's not as groundbreaking as its predecessor.
