The Playstation 1<\/a> era of games really gave birth to a few gems which have sadly dropped off of the gaming map over the years.<\/p>\n

With Square-Enix<\/a> now having access to Eidos<\/a>’ entire catalogue of games, it would appear they’re digging deep and bringing a few classics out for a second running.<\/p>\n

Fear Effect is one of those games.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

In fact, not one, but two of those games – as Fear Effect and it’s prequel-sequel Fear Effect 2: Retro Helix have been re-rated by the ESRB<\/a> for release on the PS3<\/a> via PSN<\/a>.<\/p>\n

It’s a safe bet that these will be released as PSOne Classics – though in an ideal world they would be HD remakes of awesomeness.<\/p>\n

Fear Effect followed the story of three mercenaries who were trying to find a Chinese crime lord’s kidnapped daughter – so they could kidnap her for themselves; they got more than they bargained for though, as they discovered they were dealing with demons and other nasty things that would literally drag them to hell.<\/p>\n

If you played the games back in the day – you know how awesome that was.<\/p>\n

The sequel covered events happening before the first game, but mostly caught attention because of the overt sexual themes, and the relationship between the two female characters.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

No, really.<\/em><\/p>\n

Fighting Force 2 is also coming, according to Eurogamer, by the way.<\/p>\n
