fluffhead said:I dont care what anyone says about F.E.A.R., it will own. The game looks very atmospheric just like Half-Life 2 and Doom 3. Anything that shouts atmosphere like these titles tickles my funny bone.
Sparta said:The game has tons of atmosphere but as soon as it showed the cutscene in the 3rd video the atmosphere kinda.....stopped. It wasn't as creepy as before. I just hope there isn't anymore cutscene's like that
Speculator said:C'mon, you can't justify that thought with just a WIP, plus it isn't "a new company" that's developing it; it's Monolith, a vetern game developer with an impressing track record on impressive FPS games. They're responsible for making part of the FPS genre what it is today.
lans said:So?...CryTek's first game happens to be Far cry, and many people believe it to be the best FPS to date. Many gamesites have similar opinions.
Meh, I think it's mediocre (far cry).
Anyway, back to topic - F.E.A.R literally is probably the biggest ripoff I've seen. Bullet time, check. The Ring girl, check. Plastic graphics, check.Doom 3 like monsters, double check. Wow monolith you've truly outdone yourself!

Alig said:Yeah.
http://www.3dxperience.com/html/gallery/aliens/warrior bugs.jpg compared to http://www.gamer.no/bilder/spill/half-life_2/2.jpg. Monsters ripped straight from a film. Check.
So what if it has elements of films/games in there.....
What ripped Matrix off with bullet time? Max Payne. Or was is Matrix ripped Max Payne? Either way...the films are brilliant and so is the game.
What ripped The Ring off recently? Scary Movie 3 = funny as ****.
Plastic smastic...who gives a shit? i dont...FarCry is the best FPS to date.
You've seen a little glimpse of a monster in FEAR and you say it rips doom3 of, heh. Whatever. (how do you know it was'nt one of them ninja's?)
Rico said:how are they using the technology and innovation already made creatively? Can you please tell me?
The only creativity I thought would go into a game not focused on innovation would go into the plot and the world. World looks kind of half-assed, how about the plot? Little girl from the ring > original ideas?
As much as I like horror I also strongly dislike people who rip ideas from others, can you tell me honestly that little girl they have there who appears to be a major player in their plot (recurring character) isn't an exact copy of the girl in The Ring?

lans said:That's because Max payne was the first game to bring the bullet time idea to games. Their might have been one before, but max did it best.
The point is, it's okay to borrow an idea, I don't see max doing kung fu like keanu reeves and the story being against machines...he can just use bullet time and shootdodge. The fact that fear uses literally the same mechanics and almost similar sound effects as Max payne makes it a ripoff.
Listen closely, the bullet withering past fast and the heartbeat is surprisingly a bit too similar.
If you think Far cry is the best FPS to date, you must be living with a rock on top of your head. I suppose half-life sucks in comparison for you, a sad but true fact in your case...
Have you ever heard of the term "PUN INTENDED"?
The scary movie series makes fun and ripsoff the idea of a film on PURPOSE. Obviously we know that they are making fun off it...and they know that we know it. They even have to take permission to do so. Even so, the scary movie clan altered it a bit.
But when you ripoff an idea it's like they don't take permission for it.You haven't even altered the damn idea effectively - you can just make out that fear ripped off the idea clearly.
Did you see those ninja types swinging and climbing over poles and walls? now see the E3 2004 xbox trailer of doom3.
BTW- I was flipping over channels and saw this ad on some cartoon channel (I think cartoon network) of F.E.A.R some time ago.How original can you get monolith?
