You'll also be able to take aim at other players thanks to the extensive online features. Deathmatch, capture the flag, slow-motion matches, and many more modes are available for up to 16 players, and the action moves without a hitch. However, a lack of post-game lobbies proves rather annoying. Every time a match ends you're kicked back to the title screen, left to wonder who you just played with. That's rough. It's even worse when you play a game mode like elimination which only takes 60 seconds to play out. That makes for small bites of action.
F.E.A.R.'s other big problem is its surplus of really boring levels. Most of the game takes place in an office building, which is a few rungs below a hellish palace or a space station. As such, the scenery is a little underwhelming. The lighting is good and the levels somewhat spooky, but it's not a great showcase of the 360's graphical potential.
