Hi Guys
I played this to death on PC last year and as a single player experience it was a really realy good game.
The multiplayer was just way to franetic for me (I prefer things like BF2 on pc for multi player - I dont even like RFOM multiplayer as there appears to be few tactics or depth of gameplay involved).
Anyways, ASDA is selling it now at around £40.00 which is a tenner cheaper than other shops I think?
My rating is based on the PC version for playablity (not shadows from the flashlight .. duh!)
Single player 7/10 compared to Half Life 2 (9/10)
Multi player 5/10 compared to RFOM 5/10
I wont be getting it cos i got it for the PC version and there is nothing new in it (much)
In short ... its a lazy port .. dont care how hard they say PS3 is to program for .. they should do it right!
Anyway.. don't take my word for it, here is a qoute from 1up.com (in the annoying style of blackadder's script writing again, i'm afraid)

"When
F.E.A.R. was reviewed on PC and 360, it earned nearly universal accolades, and rightly so. This exceptionally creepy FPS delivered the goods, interspersing insane firefights with some genuinely frightening atmosphere and psychological tricks. So it arrives on
PS3 accompanied by understandably high expectations.
Visualize these expectations as adorable, furry little creatures frolicking about the forest. Now visualize the PS3 version of F.E.A.R. as a giant, reeking, filth-encrusted boot descending from the sky and squashing those cute little expectations into unrecognizable blobs of bloody goo."
and so it goes on in that vein for a bit. You pay your money and take your chance...
