Thumbs up FYI: F.E.A.R. Demo is available for download

Hey, I downloaded the F.E.A.R. demo last night from GameDaily and it's really awesome. It's kind of a quick/short demo but very cool and kinda scary. The graphics are awesome, all of the weapons are really cool and they did a killer job with all of the physics. I noticed that the bullets riccochet very life-like. And I've got to admit, the freakin' game gives my overclocked PC a real workout. I'm currently running my P4 3.0C @ 3.3Ghz with 2GB DDR500 and have my X800XT PE running at 560/580 and I notice some occasional slow downs and frame skipping when there is a lot going on. I can't wait to get the real game when it comes out.

Nice tip, trowand! I've seen a couple of ads for FEAR, and I'm getting more interested in it

I played the demo, but I wasn't really impressed. I mean its an amazing game and the graphics and gameplay are outstanding but I didn't find it to be very fun. I felt it was just another Doom 3. But I will definitely check out the full game when it is released.

The demo's been out for a few weeks now, actually. It seems pretty good, but I'll reserve judgement till I see the full game.
