Monolith's 2009 release of F.E.A.R. 2 got mixed reviews from critics who felt that the sequel to the horror-shooter looked and felt too close to the original. Now the internet rumor mill is getting word on the possibly of a F.E.A.R. 3 via a casting sheet that VG247.com has posted on their site.

The casting sheet seems to indicate that a live action promo for the unannounced game was being filed last January. The director listed on the sheet is Marcus Nispel who directed the recent theatrical remakes of the Friday the 13th and Texas Chainsaw Massacre horror movie franchises. The sheet also has some story details that we won't reveal here. So far neither Monolith nor the game's publisher Warner Bros. Interactive have not made any announcements on F.E.A.R. 3.

Sometimes you just need to sit down, slide a floppy into your A: drive, and enjoy gaming retro style. We know this all too well! That's why we have a list of the best and brightest from days long gone. These are some of our favorite games of all time, and we're sure that you'll love them as much as we do, if not more. Welcome to Boot Disk, and enjoy the retro ride!

There are some games that are not notable upon original release, but as time goes on, grow and grow into that almost undefinable quality known as "classic". Every game featured so far on Boot Disk is timeless: games that were good from the day they were released to now. This week's game, however, is a little different. Unlike those other games, it was not until later on that its impact and classic nature were truly seen by most. The game is Shogo: Mobile Armor Division, and as both a launching platform for Monolith's LithTech engine and as a first-person shooter, it excels. While it does have some problems on modern machines from time to time, it's definitely worth playing just one more time.
