This game is scary, but not in a good way...

6 Helpfuls 7 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? 2 Comments
Pros The graphics are pretty darn good and so is the story and voicing
Cons EVERYTHING ELSE IS DONE TERRIBLY
Recommended it? No

You SHOULd in fact be afraid of Fear Effect, but not in a good way..... I bought this game because it got a perfect review in GamePro. All the signs of a great game were there: cool looking screen shots, nice sounding storylines, four discs for lots of playtime. The whole shebang was there!(i... Read full review »

Bees and dogs can smell fear

Pros The game is overall very good
Cons The "fear meter" is just a health meter in the form of a heart beat
Recommended it? Yes

This game, while not as innovative as Eidos would have you believe, is still a worthwhile purchase. The graphics are mostly good and the controls are decent once you are used to them. The sound is great, with little add-ons like casings hitting the ground and stuff like that. The story is typical... Read full review »

One of the best PSX games of the year

Pros Sensational Graphics, Superb Story
Cons Looping backgrounds, Very Short
Recommended it? Yes

I was pleasantly surprised when I first played Fear Effect. First off, let me just make a brief statement about the replay value, it has none. Once you?ve beaten it, that?s about it. Expect for the fact of an extra ending in Hard Mode, that?s about it. Just call it Resident Evil-type length, which... Read full review »

Pros great weapons, good voice acting, and different graphics than what you've seen before
Cons the difficulty is way to high, puzzles get frustrating, and the controls confusing

But they have no idea whats... Read full review »

Pros innovative graphics,good storyline, and familiar controls
Cons even though contains four discs the game is still a bit short
Recommended it? Yes

Now what do you get if you add some of the best elements that helped the Resident Evil series become so popular, the sneaking aspect of Syphon Filter 2, and something quite unseen on the playstation before and what you have is the most lethal combinations seen yet this year and maybe ever on the...

Incredible Graphics backed up a by a Meaty Story

byNathanielS87 Feb 2, 2001
5 Helpfuls 6 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Amazing graphics look like Cell Animation. Challenging puzzles, Excellent Story Line
Cons Totally Linear. No Replay Value
Recommended it? Yes

There isn't a game in the PlayStation Library as graphically innovative as Fear Effect. Much of the actual gameplay is very much like Cell Animation with a style that's somewhere between Aeon Flux and Blade Runner. It Admittedly plays a lot like Resident Evil, except for a lot less exploration... Read full review »

Pros Atmosphere, multiple endings, story, graphics
Cons May be to hard for some, long load times, weird health system
Recommended it? Yes

I never really paid attention to fear effect when it came out. I just thought it was another one of those Resident Evil copies that was only average. So months past and somehow fate brought me to my locale Toys Are Us. While browsing the games section I was mainly just looking at all the cheap... Read full review »

Fear of the Effect {The original FE}

4 Helpfuls 5 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Awesome graphics, Anime style, lead character with attitude {about time}.
Cons Loading times are tremendous and frequent, puzzles sometimes senseless.
Recommended it? Yes

Whereas the second edition in the series showcases grander scenarios, more in-depth character explanations, and updated settings, {loading times are a lot less frequent, thank God} the original is still the one held truest to my heart.

Reasons? At the time of its release it amazed gamers... Read full review »
