Just can't get your fill of the paranormal, genetically enhanced clones, and creepy little girls? Neither can the developers at Monolith, which is why the sequel to FEAR, Project Origin, is set to slap its predecessor around and best it in every way possible.
There are special AI routines even for NPC death - if a chap realises he's about to meet his maker, he'll often devise a spectacular way to end it all. Set a man on fire and if he's not too badly burned he might try to roll it out or run to water.Project Origin is set to continue where FEAR left off. Keep in mind, FEAR 2 is in development by Vivendi, but they only have the "FEAR" name. Monolith retains all of the original creations from the first game, and that includes the creepy young death bringer, Alma.
If he knows the end is nigh, he'll jump out the window. Then he's not on fire any more, but he is a bit dead. You, meanwhile, get a cinematic, Die Hardy satisfaction. Crysis' Koreans may be yesterday's eerily attentive news already.
