[Official] F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin


Recommended Posts

Just played the 360 demo, sadly this game has to be played with keyboard/mouse. Whilst it is not terrible on the 360, it seems to be a bit more fiddly and snap on doesn't seem to work. It's 1.1GB smaller in size too, mind you probably own to textures etc?

There also doesnt appear to be an option for rate of fire on the 360 :(

[edit]

to change rate of fire bring the weapon change reticule up, select the weapon then use stick to move the ammo.

Demo (and the game) are FREAKING awesome. Blew my expectations away seriously. The demo takes place after you are into the game a bit obviously (you have slo-mo by this time, unless they got rid of that storyline where you are given reflex stuff by surgery or whatever) and man it's some demo. Much longer than the original demo was for the first game though not super long either. Just enough lemme tell you. SPOOKY as hell. Alma shows up from time to time obviously, and at some points it's rather startling. The enviroments are much more complex, with crap exploding and moving everywhere. And you don't have to worry about the same drab office spaces either. AI seems pretty solid as well.

And you get to play in the powered shogo armor!

Agreed! Just played the 360 demo and my expectations were all either met or surpassed -- I thought it looked fun from the videos, and it played amazing! My only complain is a pet peeve of mine: no save anywhere for the 360. It may just be since it's a demo, but I doubt it. Worked with Bioshock and The Orange Box, wish other developers would use it.

Have to say, though... this may be one of the better console FPS games to come along in a longgg time. It just feels like it works. I hope the PC version feels the same.

Downloading the PC demo now to see how that version is. :D

What did you think of the demo Andy? I prefer it on the PC, a lot more precise IMO, but the 360 isn't really that bad control wise, plus it will be cheaper on PC than 360. I have to say I am impressed with the demo.

Awesome I can't wait. Its been awhile since we got an old school type linear shooter. Simply kill and plow ahead. Can't waitavhtp5.jpg

But a 2900xt recommended? Yikes requirements are getting steep! And people thought Crysis was demanding.

It was sadly bound to happen. T_T

Xbox 360 FTW.

Just played the Demo and sweet jesus! Some of the those moments made me jump to the back of my seat!

If you haven't already played the Demo, try and get a chance - it's 1.8GB but GamersHell is usually good, and it's worth it.

For those who haven't, I'll upload some video clips and screenshots on Saturday.

I'm just glad that it's nothing like Extraction Point and Perseus Mandate, although the bit in the Mechs could have been improved. But hey, it's just a demo, and it's certainly increased my hopes for the real deal.

    • I agree. I also think Phil stayed too long. They should definitely fire whoever thought all a console platform needed was Call of Duty, Elder Scrolls, and Fallout to survive. Asha and crew are still saying they need more Elder Scrolls and Fallout games. They simply don't get it.

    • Mozilla highlights Firefox Nova 2026 redesign and more upcoming features with new roadmap by Sayan Sen Last month Mozilla confirmed that Firefox was set to get a major redesign this year. Dubbed "Project Nova", it can already be tested and will roll out to all users later this year.The idea is to keep the browser competitive in a rapidly evolving internet landscape. As such the revamp focuses on improving privacy, usability, performance, accessibility, and customization. Key privacy features including the built-in VPN, private browsing mode, and Enhanced Tracking Protection, will be more visible and easier to manage, while users will have the option to disable AI features entirely through a dedicated kill switch. Additionally, the redesign promises faster page loading, the return of Compact mode, expanded personalization options, and stronger accessibility support. You can find the full details in the dedicated piece linked above. In a new blog post today the company once again reiterated on Nova and also emphasized other new and upcoming features like the settings revamp that is intended to make it easier for users to understand browser settings. In order to make it simpler for users to keep up with such features Mozilla today is launching Firefox roadmap. Hence enthusiasts and interested users will be able to check out what's cooking and also share feedback about the upcoming additions. Alongside the roadmap announcement, Mozilla also highlighted what's new in Firefox 152. One of the biggest additions is the arrival of Tab Groups on Android. The feature, which has already been helping desktop users organize large numbers of tabs, is now beginning to roll out on mobile. Users will be able to group related tabs together, assign names and colors to them, and return to them later. Mozilla says support for iOS will arrive later this year. Firefox 152 also introduces the aforementioned redesigned Settings experience. The company says the changes are meant to make controls easier to find and help users discover features they may not have previously known about. Existing preferences are not changing, though they are now better organized. Another notable addition is the new Blocked Tracker Widget, which provides a visual overview of Firefox's privacy protections by showing how many trackers have been blocked over time and the types of tracking activity the browser has stopped. Looking ahead, Mozilla revealed several upcoming roadmap features. They include customizable keyboard shortcuts, as well as enhanced PDF editing tools that will allow documents to be split, merged, and reorganized directly within Firefox. The company is also working on bringing Multi-Account Containers into the native Firefox experience thus removing the need for a separate extension. Meanwhile Firefox's built-in VPN is set to expand to mobile devices. Mozilla is also developing AI-powered features like Quick Answers, which can provide concise responses to voice queries, and Smart Window, its optional AI browsing experience that is now available without a waitlist. Finally, a new Power Saving Mode is in the works and will help reduce the impact of resource-heavy tabs on mobile devices in order to extend battery life. The video below summarizes the upcoming changes in an easy to understand format: You can find the announcement blog post here on Mozilla's official website.
    • Dead on arrival at that price. Like they missed the mark by multiple hundreds of dollars - this should actually undercut the Macbook Air at $899 if they want any sort of sales / further adoption of WoA
