Hi folks,

Has anybody played through Cold Fear? I know it got mixed reviews, but I saw a copy for 6 bux and am considering getting it.

Any opinions appreciated! :)

Do you mean Resident Evil: Boat?

Yeah, I know it's an RE ripoff.

But it is still fun to play?

Anybody?

six dollars sounds about right. expect RE4 on a boat and you'll be disappointed, though.

I liked it, it was no means top shelf, but it was a pretty good survival game. Its on par with Run Like Hell and The Thing.

I am not a fan of the fixed camera horror games but this game had some decent graphics.

Yeah...6 bucks sounds good.

No way is this on the level of The Thing. The Thing was a pretty good game, this one is barely passable. $6 though? Yes it is worth that.

I wasn't real crazy about the Thing. The gameplay was fairly solid, but everyone was an alien no matter what you did.

I picked it up for the $6.00. So far it's kinda cool. Nothing earth shattering of course. And yes it is an RE ripoff, but I dig shooting zombies, so this title scratches that itch. I own RE4 and this it ain't.

I like it though. 'nuff said

I loved the Thing. That game was awesome. Not everyone ended up becoming an alien though. Some were killed straight out...

Yeah..it did bug me that some of the characters did not last past certain levels. That would make the game a nightmare to make though..

I thought Run Like Hell was much better, but them I also liked Chaos Legion...

That's because that game is so awesome. They did a fantastic job of having absolutely no slowdown with that many enemies on the screen.

Guess it didn't sell well or something but I wish they'd make another game in the series.


Oh and Cold Fear...yeah...$6, it's worth it.

Cold Fear's all right. It's a shameless Resident Evil rip off but at least they tried something slightly original by putting it on a boat.

I'm not no one :-(


It was a pretty decent game though...more so if you had a light gun.

Yeah, but you've played every PS2 game on the planet.

Back to the topic -- Cold Fear is worth $6 if you've played every other great title that released on the PS2. It might be better to put that $6 towards Resident Evil 4.
