F.E.A.R. sequel confirmed -- be afraid of children all over again
Not only do they, as I believe Lemina from Lunar 2: Eternal Blue said, "whine and cry and poop and fight", children have become staples in the Japanese horror genre well beyond the saturation point. Knowing that, F.E.A.R. decided to go ahead with the plans for a sequel to their interesting first-person-shooter-meets-Japanese-style-horror gameplay. While it had been in talks for a while, this is confirmation of the sequel's existence. It has been mentioned that the sequel will be released on the PC and multiple platforms, with each release specifically tailored to each console's strengths. Also, since the "F.E.A.R." franchise is owned by Vivendi games and this sequel is going to be worked on by Monolith and Warner Bros., it's probably going to have a different title. Can anyone think of a humorous title? How about: S.C.A.R.E.: Something Creepy Always Revealing Evilness! A perfect "Engrish" subtitle.
Rumor: F.E.A.R. sequels announced?
A press release from Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment announced today that the sequel to F.E.A.R. is in the company's "current production slate". One snag may be that publisher Vivendi owns the rights to the franchise name, while WBIE owns Monolith, the developer of the title. Also mentioned in the press release is that Samantha Ryan, Monolith's CEO is now taking on the role of Senior Vice President of Development and Production at Warner. The forthcoming sequel will be coming to PC, Xbox 360 and PS3, with each version taking full advantage of its respective platform's strengths. So do you have any suggestions for a new name for the game? S.C.A.R.Y. seems a little cheesy to us. [Via QJ.net]
