646f9e108c Prequel to the 2000 game Fear Effect, this time with another mercenary-Rain Qin-alongside Hana, Deke and Glas from the original game. The game is set between Hong Kong, Hell&#39;s Kitchen, Xi&#39;an and Penglai Shan,the team attempt to rescue the kidnapped daughter of a Chinese executive, armed with the usual array of hardware. I wasn&#39;t exactly a fan of the first Fear Effect game and sold it because of its lack of gameplay and longevity, but this prequel is a HUGE improvement.<br/><br/>It received a lot of attention from the revelation that the main two female characters would be more than just good friends. But if you bought this game expecting a lesbian peep show you will be disappointedthe physical relationship between them lies mainly off screen.<br/><br/>Anyway its the gameplay which matters most and with plenty of weapons and 4 characters there&#39;s plenty on offer. The main letdown for this work of art is the real time inventory which can annoy when you cannot find the right weapon in the middle of a gun battle.<br/><br/>Overall Fear Effect 2: Retro Helix is a smooth and mature adventure game from Eidos with brilliant voice acting this game is a comedy/thriller/adventure all in one and at times can feel like a real movie.<br/><br/>8 out of 10 - Hopefully be seeing Fe3 on the PS2 For those of you who love the first game,have got to try this game.<br/><br/>The whole gang of mercenaries are back with a new friend, Rain. This takes place before the 1st game. I won&#39;t spoil the rest but just try it out. Believe me, It is worth playing.
