Rumor: Fear Effect 3 may exist after all

by Nick Doerr { Oct 9th 2007 at 4:00PM }

If you remember the old PlayStation One Fear Effect games, you remember a pretty decent gaming experience, laced with some edgy lesbian main characters. They were probably a few years ahead of their time, but there was planned a third Fear Effect title but it was lost in production and canned. Now, with the advent of a movie adaptation (with the tremendous talent of Uwe Boll at the head ... learn to read sarcasm!) in 2008, rumors are resurfacing of a third Fear Effect title on the current generation of consoles.

In some magazine talking about the movie, there's a quote somewhat along those lines. Eidos Interactive is bringing the series back from the grave. Still, this is no way an official announcement from Eidos, but rumors propagated by some sort of Hollywood movie magazine. We'll figure it out once Eidos tosses out an official statement, but there are bound to be some people excited by this prospect!

Is this a lesbian simulator?

I loved the games on PS1. I'd be anxious to see what they can do with the PS3 in terms of graphics now that real-time graphics are superior to those pre-rendered backgrounds.

Someone please put a BULLET in Uwe Bol's Head

I wonder if it will be a remake of the first game or a new 3rd game?... Hm... And as for Uwe, screw him. He picked this series so he could make an exploitation film. =/ Sad, but looking to be true.

this rumor better be true. fear effect was some good original gaming back on the playstation(not ps1 because it came out on the original). the art style, the story, the gameplay(a bit) was all good and it was pretty graphic, which makes everything better. the ps3 could use games like this.
