It seems FEAR found its way into the light this weekend. Saw it on easynews and at about the same time at a whole bunch of torrent places.

Unfortunately for most we cannot just download a 4.2GB image for testing purposes, so most will have to wait for local torrents to pop up.

I will be attending a nice big LAN this weekend and will try out the multiplayer there and will decide on purchasing from that experience. If the gamespot review is anything to go by, then you should buy this game just for its short single player experience. It sounds awesome...
 
we have been playing the FEAR MP demo quite a lot and its very entertaining.

as for the singleplayer, it seems to have more appeal than Quake 4's rushed monotomy of shoot-kill-get-key-repeat-etc as per the reviews FEAR has been getting.
 
F E A R is about the best game I played so far.
The graphics and attention to detail just blew me away.

The slomo effects and the way this game was put together really impressed me.
Shoot a soldiers legs off with a shotgun and see how blood spirts from the severed legs...cool. Squads of enemy soldiers reacts like a real fireteam would and work together as a team. AI is not bad at all.

After having a huge gun battle you can just see the havoc it had on the surroundings. Awsome gameplay and graphics that would even make the mighty Nvidia 7800GTX break a sweat.

The game is kinda short so rather do yourself a favour and play it on a harder difficulty level. It also have MP so that should make it worth your rands.
 
I saw the F.E.A.R ummm wait the new 4.2Gb linux disto and gave up after 2 days of downloading I had only 100Mb. It is crazy 8000 leechers and only a handful of seeds. I will wait for my pre-order to arrive!
 
That might not be a bad idea James. I also prerdered mine and I reckon Monolith deserves the cash.
 
damn.... tic toc, waiting for kalahari to deliver. they dont even have a delivery date on the site :(

is there no shops or "smokkel" places selling FEAR?

flip i dont mind payin like R140 for a copy of it!

online gameplay will require legit key... suit yourself but i dont bootleg GOOD games.... :rolleyes: or any games for that matter... ;)
 
No need to apologise..no offence taken....and I don't want to start a debate around what constitutes piracy or not.

I don't by the argument from people that they need to copy the game first, play and then buy....there is usually enough on the net via either demos or reviews for you to get a good feel of a game.

I've been there..done that..got arrested....stopped doing it ;-)
 
well.. we already had both a single and multi player demo out.. and they both made up my mind.

but i suppose everybody has their testing methods... i suppose in your method its just a matter of trust? ;)
 
whole game i think ;)

easynews has had it since last week. i just havent downloaded it since i am hoping someone at OC will have it

but i AM getting quake4
