Was gonna add Postal 2 but it's not really that good, bullet sponge enemies and shit.

You play FEAR 1, and then you don't play anything else, nothing else in the franchise is nearly as good as FEAR 1.

FEAR2 is okay I guess, but avoid 3 at all costs.

It forgoes the horror theme in favor of straight up action.

Avoid ''F.3.A.R'' like the plague.

Original developers making spiritual sequel, Overload. They don't have the IP rights because Interplay, it plays more like Descent than Descent: Underground does.
>>
>>335782474
i know m8 the overload teaser was pretty great
i could tell underground was dodgy from that first god awful kickstarter trailer but i did pick it up in some indie bundle for 2 bucks along with 7 other games just to see how it turned out but i dodged a bullet big time
may as well shill this game too they just have a multiplayer demo but the movement and everything feels spot on

FPS shooter with levelling up and stat upgrades. Enemies leave behind nodes restoring health and energy if gathered instantly or energy if gathered later - a mechanic that allows you to go both full rambo shock trooper, long range sniper, or midrange coversneaking without punishing you for either choice. Customizablr weapon and utility modifications, with limitations changing depending on the level. Also, a metric fuckton of decent humor. Why isn't this game revered as the messiah of FPS, again?

FEAR 2 was actually spookier than FEAR 1

FEAR 1 just had better shooting

you don't play FEAR to be scared. That's just a small bonus for some people.
>>
>>335794848
scared =/= spooked
>>
>>335794598
It was decent, but wouldn't put it among my favourites. Swordplay was fun, but the gunplay left a lot to be desired, and the upgrade system felt a bit clunky. Levels were generally pretty linear, minus a few exceptions.

Shadow Warrior 2 looks like its improving a few things, so I'll give that a go when it comes out.
>>
>>335794814
Never actually played Red Faction. Might give it a go one day.
>>
>>335780143
Don't listen to anyone who says FEAR 2 was good. It was complete garbage, and did more damage to the series than 3 did.

>underpowered weapons
>that ugly as fuck goggles HUD
>floaty controls
>melee moves dumbed down I didn't even know they were there until I somehow did one by complete accident
>AI dumbed down
>annoying as fuck squadmates
>bullshit mech fights
>'spooky' bits feel as forced as possible
>the plot inb4 who gives a shit about the plot in a FEAR game being consistently stupid
>the entire last mission in general, all the way from a turret sequence with generic rock music blaring to ghost rape ending

FEAR 3 was a stock console shooter, but at least it was self aware. FEAR 2 tries so, SO hard to leech itself onto the first game and fails miserably.

The only nice things I can say about it were the sniper rifle had a decent kick and the train level were good
>>
>>335794873
Either or. The only thing people mention about FEAR being spooky is the J-horror stuff and the ladder sequence. FEAR 2 was entirely unnecessary.

This. The shooting was good but the amount of padding was just insane.

I can forgive the story, Wolfenstein has never been grounded in reality, but it tries to be this 'DEEP AND SERIOUS CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT' game which also contains nazi moon bases and underwater jew bunkers and it just comes off really dumb.

BF 2, 3 and 4.

I still have plenty of fun and rage with BF 4.

The 'wave' style of combat is kind of boring and lazy but otherwise it's not too bad. Haven't finished it though.

Eh, they're okay, but they're far too simplistic for my tastes. They lack the labyrinthine level design that was common in 90's FPSs, so it kinda just strictly falls into "fight this wave of enemies to proceed" gameplay, which can get boring.
