Extraction Point demo...

...up on XBL.

Has anybody tried it yet? If so, is it better than the original game in any way?

Its felt exactly the same to me. But I wasnt much a fan of the original one so I dont think much of it anyhow. I wish theyd put a bit more spook factor into it and I wish theyd do a bit better job of it. So many times I had ideas on where best to scare the fuck outta someone and totally mind fuck a person. What was there was just to obvious. And the effects and visual look just dont look at all appealing anymore...then again I didnt like how the original looked either. Give me my Condemned 2 dammit! I havent had a look at the unofficial sequal to FEAR yet, hows that going?

Havent tried the demo, but some bits of the full expansion had some excellent atmosphere, whilst others felt like a dodgy user mod.

Overall it was more of the same, maybe slightly less polished.

Did you actually like the original on 360 nitro?

No. I got it, played the first level and then gave it away. But then i didn' t like the original PC version that much either. I never got around to trying the PC version of Extraction Point though and i wondered whether they improved aything over the original.

I think Project Origin is what you have to look for if you want more F.E.A.R i hope the fix the bland level design some. I loved the atmosphere though, id rather monolith did something else though, like NOLF 3

Nah, you pretty much have to have liked the original FEAR a lot to like Extraction Point.

What didnt you like about it btw? The first level wasn' t a great intro to the game actually...

I guess that after Half Life 2, Doom 3 and Riddick it just looked and felt dated. I couldn' t get into the slow-mo in first person and i didn' t find the AI to be all it was cracked up to be.

I got the 360 version free and it not only looked and ran like shit but it didn' t seem improved over the PC version in any way. I guess it' s just not my kind of game.

Condemned on the otherhand was brilliant.

I felt the other way around,condemned felt outdated to me,but mayby thats because I finished FEAR,and FEAR felt in the midway-end like condmned with its spooky shit.

Even if you break 2 legs from a crab it still runs!
What you gotta do is find its weak spot and do massive damage at it.
