FEAR 2 Project Origin is a Shooting game available on the 360.

FEAR 2 Project Origin is a Shooting game. Shooting games present a world in which the character must shoot their way out of dangerous situations. They provide the player with an array of weapons tailored to specific tasks. This unavoidably involves a combination of fisticuffs and gun based fighting that dictates the violent nature of these experiences. Beneath this harsh exterior though is often an intricate tactile game - and this is usually what drives the player.

Scared Gamer review Mon, 27 Apr 2009

Mixing hyper-violence and heart-stopping scares has long been the preserve of the FEAR series. In Project Origin the erratic pacing of the original game has been remedied but the shocking and creepy moments have been curtailed. The game still has its tense and suffocating atmosphere but it failed to get under my skin and merely delivered an adequate shooting experience with some occasional jumps.

Creating a tense and claustrophobic atmosphere is essential to making a memorable experience and the developers of the FEAR franchise are masters of this art. The original game on the PC married previously-unseen kinetic visuals with a jumpy and disturbing homage to Japanese horror films. It wasn't a mix that always worked well with some disjointed levels. But FEAR 2: Project Origin shows the series has grown by offering a far more fluid experience than the original game.
