    Hello, I have been looking to buy F.E.A.R., and another game called Odium, but I cannot find them anywhere as a digital purchase. Direct2Drive doesnt have them. I googled and all I saw where physical copies. Any help would be appreciated.

    This has been discussed before and I believe the conclusion is that you cannot buy FEAR digitally anymore. Run to the nearest Walmart and pick up the gamers choice edition, or whatever it is. It has fear and the two expansions.

    Good luck actually finding it in store, though.

    i snagged FEAR platinum at Gamestop for $19.99, it's the entire collection. Never found a digital download, and looked for a while... must be because of the licensing issues it's had.

    I also was looking for a digital download, no luck, seen many copies in stores a few months ago, finally decided to pick it up and I can't find it anywhere now :(

    ebay has some good deals on it.

    There's been a copy in the walmart closest to me for months. I assumed they regularly stocked it.

    Try eBay, there's always stuff there, just make sure its still sealed though.
    FEAR 2 will be digitally available soon :D That's something to look forward too.

    Hello folks. It may be too late to post this so you'll all see it but for those that want to digitally download a copy of the first F.E.A.R., you can do so through Activision's web site. I guess all the rights have transfered to them. Here is the link to all games, just scroll down until you see F.E.A.R. and click on it. Then click on the very little link to "buy now" and it will take you to an new website where you can purchase and download the game. You'll need to allow pop-ups from Activition's site to do so. Here is the link:

    Enjoy!!!!

    P.S.
    If you see it, then click on the Gold Edition instead because it will include both FEAR 1 and the Extraction Point expansion pack for $10 more than FEAR alone. And don't bother with FEAR FILES because that is for the XBOX 360
