I don't get the negative reviews. Yes the AI is dumber and yes the horror feels undercooked but it's a super solid shooter with great level design, awesome gunplay, non-stop action and perfect use of bullet time. Highly recommended.

The game is developed for consoles and ported to pc. You can feel it in the overall gameplay, yet the game is very enjoyable and has a great story.

A decent fps back in day it's not a bad game compare it's time first the AI in game are amazing, which they would hide in cover and flank you, they even evade to your grenade this game AI win most of the modern fps that they can't beat Fear 2 AI. there a huge improvement compare to fear 1 but in tiny thing, flashlight infinite which is a nice thing, auto save without manual save, auto save without manual save, the gun graphic is improve much more. the weapons part, the module from like xm8 assault rife, P90 smg gun and Jackhammer auto shotgun, the weapons had balance issue and it difficult to swap weapons slot once you accident swap the weapon slot then meaning rest of game the weapons are in wrong slot. however the not scary at all campaign, compare it with dead space you would see different, Fear 2 is not a bad game but really lack a lot of improve space.

I'm probably in the minority but I enjoyed this game more than the first one. With better graphics, more enjoyable weapons, and better, more straightforward levels, it provides a good time without overstaying its welcome.

F.E.A.R. 2 is a big upgrade over F.E.A.R, The graphics are good, its even more scary and gives you jump scare, combat and mecha suit is fun, shooting feels improved and better here, worth every penny. School level is the most scariest of all, worth playing this game, you will enjoy it and graphics look amazing even now
