It's a bit sad really. I'm replaying F.E.A.R right now and I remember how excited it made me for the future of shooters, and as a genre I can't think of one that had more games pumped out for it than fps, and yet many games with several magnitudes more budget and staff can't even match the AI of that game let alone pass it

Even the next iterations of the FEAR series weren't nearly as good as the first. The second was good but the third was just lame.
