Exclusive: F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin Interview

The PC version is terrible...period...film-grain?...why?... WHY?!?!? The best thing about the original FEAR was the crisp clean graphics...now I have to play thru "Mass Effect" type crap...also, physics blows...in FEAR 1, objects were part of the environment and ACTED like part of the environment...while playin just now,I melee'd a stack of papers on a shelf in an office and...ooooo...they did nothing...no movement, nothing...zzzzz....and you don't even want to hear my opinions on the HUD...plain stupid...
Also, PC controls - only 3 mouse buttons are usable? Idiotic...and mouse sensitivity on the lowest settings is nearly unplayable (yes, I did set my mouse DPI correctly...to 400 dpi...which should be plenty low enough sensitivity to play an FPS)...
This game was made for consoles and the PC version should have not ever have been made...a useless waste of $50...and a smear on the FEAR franchise name...
If you are wondering if you should buy this game, trust me, if you like PC FPS's...DON'T! or at least pray that patches are released that will fix the horribleness....which is unlikely imo..
