Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare vs F.E.A.R. 3
Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare
Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare takes a different path to the previous games and heads into the realm of, as you would guess the modern world and war zones around the globe within that setting.With a really great campaign to get you going this game features a lot of characters for you to meet, fight with or just take control of. There are a lot of different locations and the game has been critically praised for the campaign and story in particular. It also helps that there are some very recognizable voices here too. The multiplayer version of the game also has a ton of amazing features, and a range of experience levels that you can earn for extra gear and prestige. There are also a lot of different specialist objectives brought into the multiplayer that mean each game is both thrilling and different whenever you play.
F.E.A.R. 3
F.E.A.R. 3 definitely upped the notch by providing players with two incredible characters to play as - either Point Man, a genetically-enhanced soldier with superhuman reflexes and can manipulate time; or the undead spirit of his brother, Paxton Fettel, who wields amazing psychic powers. The AI in the game is as sneaky as ever, forcing you to have heightened combat awareness or you might just get attacked from behind. You can also pilot an enhanced mech in this game, which is always an awesome thing to do.However, many fans of the series feel that the story has been drawn out way past its lifespan and that the story in this installment is just underwhelming. There are also several major plotholes which just further messed up the story. Not to mention, the gunplay in this game seems to be a much-watered down version of its previous games.
So, if you're a hardcore fan of the story, you might still want to get this game while it's on offer just to enjoy some of the better parts of the plot. But if you're a newcomer, you might want to look to its first or second game instead.
