… F.E.A.R. 2 DLC – insert ‘afraid of DLC’ joke here
Pretty much as it says on the tin here… WBIE have announced DLC for F.E.A.R. 2 on all platforms (well, all it was released on… because giving Wii owners F.E.A.R. 2 DLC would be stupid, wouldn’t it).
Not really much to go on re: content or price, but it will be available in April and comes with (at least) a new map-pack called Toy Soldiers (because Land of the Giants-style multiplayer maps are SOOOO original) and a ‘premium theme & picture pack’, which I’m going to go out on a limb and say is a ‘console’ thing.
Short, sharp and … Read More…

Also after the jump are two trailers released just before christmas that somehow got swept under the carpet in the mad release schedule – … Read More…
F.E.A.R. 2 c.l.e.a.r.e.d. (for sale in Australia)
Determined to prove they’re as inconsistent as ever, the Australian OFLC has decided to reclassify the recently banned sequel to Monolith’s shooter as MA 15+, allowing its sale at retail (probably to minors).
Games on Net carries the article following breaking the story of the games ban-titude a month ago.
This change of heart probably has something to do with fact that the guy making the announcement, a one Trevor Griffin, carries the title Acting Classification Review Board Convenor, which could signify a change of management at the government department that has drawn a fair amount of flak over … Read More…
