I've already dumped JO am afraid, and don't intend getting it again. OFP for now, and maybe some more RvS IW, and then we're waiting on GR3 & OFP2, or maybe we'll end up with VBS or something?
I played that FEAR demo and was quite impressed as with the graphics side of things and the movement, but didn't pay attention to anything else to be honest.

FEAR's engine would make an excellent successor for RvS, certainly, but I think it safe to say they will always be Unreal-engined for the forseeable future. That's Ubi's main engine right now.

Well, I for one, am looking forward to the next great FPS.
