Now, the spine tingling sequel, Project Origin is here to continue the story of the psychic and psychotic Alma with damn good results. - GamePro
F.E.A.R. 2 emerges as an effective, entertaining FPS with a chiller story element, rather than a real survival horror shooter...Play with the lights dimmed, and don't be surprised if you end up squealing (on the inside) like a little girl. - The Official Playstation Magazine
It feels a lot like that last "007" movie: plenty of fun, but nowhere near as awesome as we hoped it'd be. - The Official Xbox MagazineMetacritic: F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin Reviews
