Well I'm more interested in the story and multiplayer than the graphics. That being said, I still couldn't believe the difference between the PC and 360 textures. It was like night and day.

Hopefully I'll enjoy the MP, since I still love playing FEAR 1's MP from time to time. I know they removed slom-mo modes and slo-mo items from MP (which I think sucks, but eh) and it's just a basic DM/TDM/Zone MP type deal. But I love the weapons and stuff so, it's still fun for me!

I think you'll like the mp then, since it's same as fear 1 (with few more cool weapons). And spookie how long did it take you to finish the game, I am looking at almost all nook and cranny to find the intel. So it's taking me long time, as I said before I'm 6 hrs in and still 4 more levels to go.

Guys, my friend tells me that he cannot change the key bindings for the 4-5 mouse keys (back and forth keys)? Is that true?

If it's true, can it be edited using any method? Like an ini file or registry?

True. There's a workaround on the official forums until a patch is released.

I am assuming you mean the PC looks way better right? Cause I have to say I am thinking to myself while playing it looks really damn good on the 360, so now curious to definitely check it out on the PC and see the difference.

Got the 360 version and played the first level :) Enjoying it so far!

Same thing here, about half way through the second level I am guessing. Controls are a but wonky, I keep getting stuck on doors for some reason, but I am liking it. Also like the fact it did not start out as the same level as the demo, this way I probably will not mind so much doing it over again.

I also expected to see the demo right away so that was kind of nice not having to redo it at the start.

Running the PC version maxed and the only time the FPS drops is when it auto saves (which is natural). Overall the graphics seem ok, but they just don't seem too demanding to me. One thing that still bothers me is how fake the blood seem. Does it bother anybody else?

I just tried to get into 3 multiplayer games, and so far it froze all 3 times during the loading.

The map loads are horrendous. Apparantly more then one person is having issues with this for the ps3 version.

There is no friend list to bring friends into a party that i can see.

If this keeps happening i'm returning it.

Don't worry the blue bar is your shield. When that depletes the bar is into the health bar where you can use your healthpack.

Oh, that makes sense lol That's a bit confusing if you don't know that lol

There's an elevator at the end of that hall... the button is white and on the left side, I believe. You have to call the elevator, get in, and press the button in it before the pipes get to you. The button inside the elevator is white also, and also hard to see.

The more I play this game, the more I love it :) If you're a fan of the original, most definitely pick it up! If your only beef was the level design, pick it up... but if you didn't like the gameplay of the original, you're probably not going to like this one.

Definitely not 5/10. I'd personally give it a 9/10, maybe 8/10 if it goes downhill from about midway through.

Yea I have seen that white button many times but it won't let me click it. I figured I was supposed to go up the elevator and went to the white button but nothing happened.

    • Mozilla highlights Firefox Nova 2026 redesign and more upcoming features with new roadmap

      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

    • Cybersecurity vets protest ‘dangerous’ US government ban on Anthropic’s most powerful models

      By branfont · Posted

      A group made up of dozens of cybersecurity experts, including several well-known veterans of the industry, published an open letter to the U.S. government asking it to lift the export control order on Anthropic’s Fable and Mythos models. According to the open letter, “this action has taken the best models away from [cybersecurity] defenders” who now can’t use the models to find vulnerabilities and make their software and products more secure. “To pull the best capabilities away from defenders without a good reason when our adversaries are rapidly advancing is dangerous,” read the letter. On Friday, the U.S. government ordered Anthropic to limit the export of Fable and Mythos, citing national security concerns, without explaining the specific reasons behind the order, according to Anthropic. In response, the company suspended access to the models to all users worldwide.     https://techcrunch.com/2026/06/15/cybersecurity-vets-protest-dangerous-us-government-ban-on-anthropics-most-powerful-models/
