Monolith enlists gamers to name new F.E.A.R. sequel
A rift between Monolith Productions and Vivendi SA is a video game developer; formerly known as Vivendi Universal”>Vivendi almost cost fans a sequel to the FPS title F.E.A.R (PC, PS3, Xbox 360). Turns out, fans will be getting two sequels to the title: one from Vivendi (who still owns the F.E.A.R. title and plans to release F.E.A.R. 2) and another title from Monolith set within the F.E.A.R. universe.
Since Vivendi still owns the brand name, Monolith can’t use it for their upcoming sequel. With a bit of quick thinking, Monolith has come up with a cool way to get around the whole name issue. They’ve announced a contest where gamers can send in their suggestions for what the new F.E.A.R. game should be called.
The contest will run until June 22, when submissions will be narrowed down to three finalists. These finalists will get an all-expense-paid trip to meet the game’s dev team at Monolith and get a grand tour of the company’s facilities. All three finalists will also get their names and likenesses included in the game.
Once the finalists are chosen, the ball will once again be in the fans’ court. On July 23, voting will be open to the public to let the fans decide what name to go with. The voting will continue until June 27. For more details, click on the read link below.
