The first F.E.A.R is an amazing First Person Shooter.
It is a masterclass in how to create believable A.I. in a shooting game and the developers of action games should always turn their heads to it for that alone.
And on top of that, this is the only game in the series that is an even remotely believable horror game. It starts out cheap, lazy and boring in the horror department, but it also gets better and better as the story goes on, until the last third, where it has some truly masterfully done scares that will delight you, or make you shit your pants... or both.
One of the better gaming experiences overall to come out in the last 20 Years, and it shouldn't be overlooked by any Shooter Fans, or Horror Fans, for that matter.
... shame that the sequels suck so much.
