Fear Effect for PlayStation 1

Pros: concept/environment/cool characters/storyline
Cons: kind of short/frustration of the ninja gaiden calibur "oooohh now thats frustration"

Lately I have found myself complaining endlessly about originality. Movies, games, books and music are all suffering from lack of it. I hardly go to the movies because more often than not, new movies being released are being produced by the gigantic...

Pros: Easy to dodge enemies, great sound
Cons: Poor control otherwise, derivative story, tawdry treatment of sex

Although many people can't understand it, there is one game company I loathe more than any other. Despite being a loyal Nintendo player for over ten years, it isn't Sega. It's Eidos. At best, I have serious problems with many of their games. At...

Pros: Nice graphics, very well done cinematic experience
Cons: But none of the above translates into a quality game

Eidos has had some really good and really bad PSX games in it's lifespan. On one hand there's trash like Soul Reaver, and on the other hand there's great stuff like the first 2 Tomb Raider games and Magical Racing Disney something something. As to which...

Pros: Amazing graphics, good story, original
Cons: TOO SHORT!

I really didn't have the slightest clue what to expect when I picked up this game from Blockbuster. The only reason I grabbed it was because I had heard it was decent and there really wasn't anything else that grabbed my attention.

When I...

Pros: Sensational Graphics, Superb Story
Cons: Looping backgrounds, Very Short

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....

Pros: Graphics, Story, Challenging Puzzles
Cons: Too Much Instant Death, Load Time, Controls

Eidos jumps into the "Survival Horror" genre of video games with "Fear Effect". The game mixes together the cyberpunk world of "Blade Runner" with the zombie filled world of any "Living Dead" film. This...

Pros: n/a

Fear Effect is a really nice adventure game with some fun puzzles thrown in. Controls are like those in the Resident Evil series, but the gameplay borrows quite a bit more from the old Dragon's Lair arcade game (anyone remember that one?). That is, to...

Pros: Amazing graphics, voice acting very cool, quite fun, lots of very original elements
Cons: Very very hard, control a little shaky, won't last forever

I had heard a lot about this game, and it seemed to have earned a good reputation before it was even released. This was mostly because of the stellar graphics, but I could see more promise than that. So I decided to get it as soon as I could.

Pros: Innovative concept and beautiful graphics
Cons: Gameplay sucks crabs.

After reading the reviews on this game, I decided it sounded innovative and exciting enough to warrant a look. It sounded quite creative with a new twist on the survival genre gameplay.

Well, it is quite creative and kudos to Eidos for...

Pros: Great graphics and story
Cons: Short length

I walked into the game shop one day to look for new products. One game caught my eye that day, and it was Fear Effect. The incredible new technology used for the graphics definitely caught my eye, and the amount of story given by the back cover for the...
