Rather than aping what's popular, it focuses on good gunplay and unique ways to make it interesting: the slow motion, the co-op, the scoring system, two distinct characters to emphasize replayability, and a story that knows its place and its limitations.
Series followers know what to expect, and they won't be disappointed. New features like the cover system and the cooperative mode work well, although the game won't make history.
This is not a typical first-person-shooter. It mixes different gameplay elements in a spine-chilling setting. With a double-sided single player, multiple co-op options and a solid multiplayer offering, F.3.A.R. surely deserves some attention.
It mightn't be the return to F.E.A.R. some fans wished for, but it's a competent and able shooter that doesn't let up.
As interesting thanks to its gameplay mechanics as shameful due to the lack of an interesting storyline. A fast-paced action shooter that has lost its power to surprise, but that's still likeable enough in the multiplayer modes.
Won't give you shivers, but will make your thumbs itch.

Summary Alma returns in F.E.A.R. 3 but this time her sons Point Man and Paxton Fettel introduce divergent co-op, giving players distinctly different abilities affecting their own play as well as the experience of their co-op partner. Gamers participate in single player or co-op modes as Point Man, a genetically enhanced super soldier originally ...
