Fear Effect

"A bit of an opportunity missed for me. I'd be interested in seeing where they go if a sequel is planned, but for me Fear Effect is just another average 3D adventure. Nowt special."

"Eidos' latest PlayStation adventure game blends cinematic elements of media like Blade Runner, The Killer, and Aeon Flux, with gameplay devices of titles such as Resident Evil and Heart of Darkness, yet somehow manages to come off as a wholly original experience."

"You'll honestly wish there was more of the game; there's enough to it, by all regards, but it just all seems to be over very quickly, too soon after the nature of the drill is established in your brain and body."

"The game, I must confess, starts off a little slow for my tastes. Spanning four discs...Fear Effect needs a lot of space because Kronos is using streaming data, instead of the traditional RAM-upload process to transition from environment to environment."

"Although the gameplay may feel like "been there, shot that", but Fear Effect's gameplay is really a breath of fresh air. The camera flow is a lot like Resident Evil's and Dino Crisis', the gameplay in general is as well."
