Review: Cold Fear on the Xbox is a good game. Well worth the purchase and really enjoyed playing it. It's cool being on the ship you really do feel like you are on a ship in a storm. Was almost sea sick twice. I like the control features to the game. Way easier to control than R.Evil. Good story line keeps you wanting to finish one more level. Polished game

On the downside. I couldn't help but feel "I've done this all before." In R.E and The Thing. Very similiar feel to it. But hey..if you haven't played these games you are in for a treat. There was "something " lacking that stopped me giving it 5 stars. Maybe a better storyline would have pushed it and after a while, like ,most shooters it does get repetitive.

BUT it is well worth buying and a great game. It's quite difficult. I completed on Easy level but was killed over 15 times and took me over 5 days (2 hours each day) to complete. I don't think I would do it on hard level. It's creepy as well. So be ready. Good but not great.
