All the things we F.E.A.R. : Monolith's sequel has a name

So the new game is officially titled "Project Origin" (the reason for which is probably apparent if you've already played through the first game). Personally, I don't care much for the name. Then again, as a name it's probably better than F.E.A.R. anyway. What's in a name after all.

In any case, having recently played through both F.E.A.R. and Extraction Point, I'm looking forward to this, and the upcoming Perseus Mandate addon pack. I really feel they nailed that intense, close-quarters gunplay in those games. I especially loved the melee combat, since there's few things as satisfying as running up to someone hiding around a corner and performing a scissor kick.

There hasn't been any released footage from the new game yet, but there've been a couple of previews from this years E3 stating that it still looks on track for the John Woo style action carnage we've grown to love about F.E.A.R.

Project Origin is actually the name I voted for when I voted in their poll thing. I thought that out of the three choices it most closely tied in with the story. I'm looking forward to this game and also "FEAR 2." I think it's so funny that legal licensing nonsense is leading to two sequels to the same game. One of which has almost nothing to do with the original (FEAR 2).

I think I wanted one of the other two options but I can't remember what they were now.

Still waiting for something nasty to happen to a certain someone that hasn't died yet. Specifically,

for someone/something to finally kill Mapes once and for all.

Additionally, after finishing Extraction Point, I've come to think that it'd be safer for everyone involved if the pointman just walked everywhere. He'd get where he was going faster, SFOD wouldn't keep losing choppers, and eventually Fettel would run out of clone troopers to throw at him. Everybody wins!
