E3 2007: First impressions of the sequel to F.E.A.R.

Just this morning I had a sit down and private gameplay demo with Monolith and game producer Troy Skinner concerning the developer’s upcoming sequel to the critical and commercial hit first-person shooter/survival horror hybrid F.E.A.R.
And, yes, it is still just being called “the sequel to F.E.A.R.” for now. Monolith held a contest a while back to see who could come up with the best name for this follow-up game and, although the field has been narrowed down to three finalists, a winner has not yet been selected (my suggestion, Z.O.I.N.K.S., was sadly denied).
The game is not being released until 2008 and is only about 50% complete, but the demo shown was from a fully playable sequence that seems very close to being finished.
Hit the jump for my full impressions of this highly anticipated game.
