Does anyone have F.E.A.R. and the Orange Box for PS3?

"The Dude" · 04-13-2008, 07:21 PM

Does anyoen have both or either of these titles for the PS3? I just picked up F.E.A.R on clearance at Target for $14.98. They also have The Orange Box on clearance as well, for $29.98.

I'm asking because I've read that both of these titles have framerate issues on the PS3, with F.E.A.R being the worst. I've also read that the graphics for F.E.A.R aren't as good as the 360 or PC, I don't know about The Orange box. I've been looking to get the TOB on the 360, but if I'm able to snag it at $14.98 for the PS3, I might go that route, if the PS3 is the same as the 360.

I heard the PS3 orange box is much worse than the 360 version. Orange Box PS3 isn't even developed by Valve, one of the EA teams ported the 360 versions (shittily).

Supposedly it's only Half-Life 2 Episode 2 that stutters on PS3, the rest run fine... I don't know though, I never played it.

F.E.A.R. I heard looks and runs like crap on the PS3, which must be bad 'cause I thought it looked and ran like crap on the 360.

The game is amazing, one of my all-time favorites, I'm just saying I've heard the PS3 version looks icky and has framerate problems. The 360 version ran pretty well but had much lower res textures than the orginal version, and the aiming sucked... obvious port.

Thats what I heard originally too. My friend has a PS3 and played FEAR but I never really got a look at it. He said it was "cool" but also he still isn't quite sure what the difference between Blu-ray and HD-dvd is. He's traded it in since so reviews are all I would think you could go by, if you have a site you trust for reviews that is.
