FEAR is a goofy mix of pop culture across film and games, and somehow, it rules.
2005 was an odd year for both horror games and first-person shooters. Monolith Productions, one of the most beloved PC shooter developers clearly wanted to prove it still had FPS chops after a Warner Bros acquired the studio in 2004—and FEAR was the result.

It's full of genuinely creepy moments and some of the better jump scares in the horror genre. Even better, it's still home to some of the messiest and loudest firefights FPS games have seen yet.
On this episode of Reinstall, we look at FEAR's bizarre inspirations and examine why the scares and shooting still hold up today. while you're at it, where we revisit everything from Kane and Lynch 2 to The Simpsons: Virtual Springfield.Sign up to get the best content of the week, and great gaming deals, as picked by the editors.
