According to those good ol' boys as the Anonymous Sources Department, a casting call for a F.E.A.R 3 Web promo has spilled light onto the first plot details for Monolith's big shooter sequel. The details are spoileriffic, so if you believe F.E.A.R's plot could ever be ruined, look away now!
Okay, you still with us, good? If the casting call gossip is true, Paxton Fettel is making a comeback, and is "very excited about the delivery of the latest member of the family." Fettel was an antagonist in the original F.E.A.R, the son of evil psychic girl Alma. At the end of F.E.A.R 2, Alma telekinetically raped the player, becoming pregnant with (presumably) another mentally superior monster child.
According to the promo, Alma is back and thirsty for vengeance: "With her latest pregnancy and delivery, she may be ready to unleash all of her powers in a final bid for the destruction of mankind."
The Point Man, the hero from the original F.E.A.R, is also due for a return. Alma's firstborn is described as the "perfect killing machine" and "unbeatable in combat." Well, doesn't he just sound like a gas?
F.E.A.R 3 is yet to be officially announced, but it seems inevitable. It's also strongly rumored to be subtitled Project Hades. Until Monolith or Warner Bros. say anything, this is just a rumor for now ... chances are high that it's solid information, though.
Rumour: Nispel F.E.A.R. 3 promo casting reveals plot details [VG247]
I shall keep an eye on 3.
Don't even get me started on the story! So then why will I anxiously await the 3rd? Because the F.E.A.R. games are one(s) that shouldn't be missed. Although, sadly, its become more of a rental now, due to the online community being next to non-existant.
Unfortunately, after FEAR 2 and Condemned 2, Monolith just doesn't inspire much faith in me anymore. And honestly, with all the other horror games getting watered down (*cough*deadspace2*cough*) I'd rather have Condemned 3 than FEAR 3 right about now.
The obvious has now been stated.
Translates to: "Shoot shit up, get scared by ghostgirl."
All right I'll be looking forward to it.
I'd also like the return of duel pistol wielding, it was my favorite thing to do in Fear 1; slow-mo + duel pistols = win.
Still, this seems interesting. We'll see.
It wasn't very difficult(even on its hardest setting) but it was sure as heck tons of fun.
