This is a classic RPG Maker horror game. To be precise, it’s not a remake version, but an older one. Many of the scenes only have black screen and colorful flashes instead of CGs.
Also, the game isn’t particularly… scary. It barely has any jumpscares, if you don’t count occasional thunder and stuff. Not that’s it a bad thing, it’s still really entertaining to play.
As I’ve heard, remake got professional voice actors, and this one… does not. They all do pretty good job here. Except for Morishige. He’s pretty awful (but hilarious).
It was a pain in the ass to get all the endings for chapter 5, but nothing too hard.
Overall, it’s a great horror title.
This is a classic horror FPS that has been pretty groundbreaking with it’s cinematic fights. Of course, it aged a bit and it took a while to click for me again, but man, it’s still pretty great. It’s still awesome to kick stuff and enemies mid-air. Enemies’ radio conversations are such a cool feature, it’s a shame it’s not utilized this way often.
The level design is very bland and same-y all the time. It’s not like it makes the game much worse, but still.
Just like Corpse Party, it’s barely scary. Oh well, at least the shooting part is still great.
This is the first expansion pack for F.E.A.R. It picks up right at the moment where the original game ended and adds pretty much nothing new to the plot. It all feels like a filler content.
It adds a few new guns, few new enemies and mechanics, but the core gameplay and the way game tries to scare you are pretty much the same.
Overall, filler. Shooting stuff still rocks, though.

I still don’t get why they chose to put that version of Corpse Party on Steam. The art looks more childish and the UI less put together… all the later installments only have one version, with a, so-to-say, “updated” art style and professional voice acting. It’s like they knowingly chose to downgrade when they didn’t just port the PSP version, so I always tell people to go play that one instead.
My guess is that truth lies somewhere between a quick buck and lazy/weird publisher decisions, like always.
I’d hope not… they brought Hysteric Birthday (for the first time officially in English), Blood Drive and Dead Patient (again, first time in English) to Steam later on, so that’s straight awesome in my book.
