I've seen many games where I can play as a member of the US military, be it the army, the marines, the air force, and the navy. As far as I know, this is the one and only game where you play as a coast guard member, and it's in a horror setting
Ps2 era was the golden age of gaming. Lot of gems that were published since gaming back then was more adventurous with their projects and not obsessed with "How can we milk the playerbase with a unfinished game?"
The fixed camera/over the shoulder combo is something i wish more developers would use in survival horror games. Hell Capcom should have used this idea for a resident evil game a long time ago. It's a perfect blend of classic and modern survival horror and im sure fans of both would love. I i know i do. If you're an indie dev and you plan on working on a survival horror title please consider using this idea.
The RE4 beta version did that, but I think Mikami scrapped that idea and decided to stick to over the shoulder because RE4 being so combat focused would make the camera switching between the two styles confusing, especially in big open areas like the first village fight. Sticking to a consistent style with RE4 was the right choice. However, I can see this camera combo working in more traditional survival horror games that don't focus on combat/shooting that much and are usually set in closed areas, such as the classic RE games and Silent Hill games.
Only a tiny minority wants fixed cameras and tank controls to continue to exist in RE Games, fortunately the majority of players enjoy the franchise more with over the shoulder camera view.
@@metroplex29 I mean, the most beloved game in the series (OG RE4) has tank controls, and two of the most beloved games in the series to this day (RE1 Remake and OG RE2) have both tank controls and fixed camera angles. There’s nothing wrong with tank controls and fixed camera angles, they’re just a design style. Some modern indie horror games actually use them. Personally I like both the classic and modern style of the camera and controls.
You know what else was cool about this game? The sick flash website. Anyone remember when games had awesome flash websites? Killzone, res evil 4, cold fear... i miss the internet back then.
From the creators of Alone in the Dark New Nightmare! Comes a Cold Fear with a Cold Beer! I love the MGS2 UI and font. It's like The Thing the videogame, so much potential, but ultimately didn't penetrated the zeitgeist back then.
The Thing is being remastered by the team that did the System Shock Remake. (2023 game, not the remaster) They also remastered a bunch of classic games, and are working on the System Shock 2 remaster as well. And they are joined by the guy that did the incredible RE4 HD Project mod.
Excellent video as always, man. Love that you talk about these games, so they don't get forgotten. Not to dictate how you make content, but would you consider making a video on those "Unique game features you'd like to see indie devs explore" you spoke about in the video? 11:47 for reference
this was originally how RE4 was going to play, if you look the early versions(like the Hookman for example), they have fixed camera for the exploration and over the shoulder for combat edit: the video literally mention this at 15:23 lol
I wish horror games in general used more interesting camera systems instead of "third person over the shoulder" all the time. Things haven't changed much since 2005.
Let's not go that far. Capcom has struck the perfect control scheme, and the first-person games only add variety to their formula. Fixed camera angles wouldn't be received well from the general audience, and for good reason. I love old RE games, too, but their gameplay is a thing of the past
God, when you listed the releases that surrounded this game, it brought me back to a time where you'd have literal GOTY contenders dropping nonstop. What a time to be alive that was
Now that's a blast from the past. Solid AA game, this one, from the time when big studios still made AA games. It could've been a franchise, I can totally see it. The sequel would've been so much better.
I really like that you can actually die from your own dumb movement and fall off a boat or get electrocuted if you are not cautious enough from the environment. It actually reminds me of Raw Danger when you can die in a dumb way if not be careful.
One of the most underappreciated survival horror games ever made by Ubisoft. I remembered playing this on the PC, and it's indeed a fun game. It'll be nice if they remaster Cold Fear.
In the spanish translation, the voice for Tom Hansen was dubbed by the same guy who voiced Sam Fisher, so you have another Splinter Cell conection right there haha
Good review! I see a lot of people giving this game love recently! Loved it back in the days, very underrated game. Subbed and liked, and after subbing I also saw you have videoes on so many of my favorite games!
I remember having the game on the original Xbox and being fascinated by its manual, particularly how the zombie designs look lifted from L4D despite being older. Ah, to be a baby again
"It's the game you rent from blockbuster for a weekend " ..my copy I got from a flea market was a blockbuster copy. Was bundled with a blockbuster copy of Manhunt and obscure 2 Was a weird weekend.
26:40 if I recall correctly (and it has been a long time since I checked I read up on this) that is indeed the result of the devs running out of time and having to cut out a section where you played as Ana
Cold Fear was freaking great for sure. And let's not forget that song from Manson in it as well. It's probably one of his best ever. I think I finished it right after I did with RE4.
i legit just played this game like last month and was like "its not amazing but i kind of wish more people talked bout it" so seein this appear on homepage is crazy
I only rented Cold Fear because I was still waiting for the PS2 Resident Evil 4 port. Ended up liking it on its merits. I wish Ubisoft gave a sequel. Even though they would’ve ran the cold Fear series into the ground if it did get sequels.
Have you seen the trailer for .45 Parabellum Bloodhound? It looks like a developer has finally taken on the challenge of making a game that wears its Parasite Eve inspiration on its sleeve and hopefully it will be a fun take on that extremely unique blend of gameplay styles.
Nice to see that im not the only one that likes Run Like Hell. Its an awesome and very underrated horror game that deserves way more respect and attention in my opinion and same thing with Cold Fear. Run Like Hell had a really great story and characters and felt like an epic adventure.
@@CyberLance26 It's also probably the game that put Breaking Benjamin on the map enough to be picked up for Halo 2 th-cam.com/video/5KOR25G_Nek/w-d-xo.html
I do remember something from these guys, almost nothing but here it goes: iirc these guys were working on some FPS survival horror game set in a citya, and they made released some demo/prototype vid of it. I remember watching that vid many times when I was younger, 'cause I played Cold Fear for the first time back when I was like 13 or so? And liking it a lot, so I was interested in whatever they were planning to do next. What I remember is that you were walking through a highway full of abandoned cars during a foggy night, making your way towards the city while fending off some dark zombie like creatures, and then you were taking a stroll through the city with some kind of special weapon designed for something... special. That's all I know. I kinda lost track of it since that was everything they ever showed and later I found out it got cancelled... And that's all I remember from this particular studio. Kinda sad, I do think Cold Fear is a very solid title and they at least deserved one more chance...
There was a game that predated RE4 and Cold Fear by at least half a decade with over the shoulder aiming with laser sights called The Devil Inside. It wasn't quite the OTS we know now but close enough.
Damn I miss this game so much. It sure didn't slip under my radar either because Resi 4 and the franchise in general left me hella hungry for more games like em back then and I made a mental note to grab Cold Fear asap. Wish I still had my copy, but it was fun while I did still have it.
I played and finished this game 2 times (1st on PS2, then on PC) years ago, and the 3 things that really ruined my overall impression for the game was the crappy save system, which can only be used once after reaching a story checkpoint, not being able to carry healing items (3 would've been enough), and final boss fight, which required you get caught & execute a QTE trigger to actually hurt it (as shown in video). If the game had better and more standard save system, and allowed you to carry healing items, I would've more than forgiven the final boss fight itself.
I'm 29 and I can distinctly remember Cold Fear having a heavy marketing push. It even had an ARG that produced some creepy pictures that get posted frequently (without context) to this day on Reddit and Twitter. I personally think 1998, 2004, and 2023 are the de facto best years in gaming.
I highly doubt 2023 will stand the test of time. The big releases of that year already lost most of their shine. Baldur's Gate III will never be finished, Tears of the Kingdom, after initial praise, went through the Skyrim exhaustion phase. Half the Metacritic 90+ titles are Remakes.
Bought a bootleg cd in India back in 2010-13 It had cold fear , penumbra igi 2 and 4th game where u start in a washroom and a crow or raven visits u through window
Ohhh nice❤ you would happen to think of doing Cursed Mountain at all? I watched my friends play this one so I went out to find a similar experience on the Wii and got that instead and absolutely loved it as much as watching my friend play Cold Fear. These two games & the Obscure series were my entryway into the horror genre and are interesting little games.❤
I remember playing the demo disk with this and metal gear solis 3 demo as a little kid and thinking it was an "adult" demo disk and never told my dad I had played it. I remember thinking cold fear was spooky but I really like mgs3 and would kill all guards with the knife.
*Budding indie game dev Idea* - Boulder lad, I wanna ask you something. The strange and quirky mechanics you mention in your videos are indeed really cool most of the time. Do you think it worth your time to like gather maybe 30ish cool budding dev ideas and slap 'em all together into a single video? Like "30 cool indie game mechanic ideas, for budding indie devs?" as hopefully an eventual game dev, I would L O V E to have a small reference catalogue of bizarreness. Jesus that's a lot of budding, a mitochondria level of budding.
...funny how even it's idea of a boat to explore while using the boat's environment to make it out was taken by resident evil, albeit 10 years later with revelations. {I don't count dead aim as one, it's a completely different genre, and two the main characters both came along with a full arsenal, it just was stolen from them}
18:51 Honestly, Flood vs Covenant and Flood vs Covenant vs Sentinels with Chief being a fourth party were kind of under underutilized imo, would have been nice to have more battles like that. Meanwhile Halo 2 gave us one of the greatest moments in gaming at the end of Gravemind... You know what I'm talking about, in Mausoleum of the arbiter?
Glad thus game has picked up traction the past couple of weeks, hopefully now that many people talking about it and more trying it maybe it renews an interest in the company to make more projects linked to it or like it.
7:35 What's going on there? Were those two guys on the right not supposed to be in the shot as it were? The game was originally made for a smaller screen size? I don't recall anything like that when I played it on the Xbox years ago. Or just a typical old game being played on a newer PC type of thing? It's bothers me way too much how you don't seem to fully reload a lot of the time, lol. I'm such a compulsive reloader in games. Or was this one of those "Don't use all ammo in a clip? Well you lose it in a reload" type of games? Been way too long since I last played it.
Poor Cold Fear had no chance in 2004/2005 because of all those insanely good titles. It's definitely a decent game, but I can see why it fell through the cracks of gaming on release. I was obsessed with DMC and RE4 during that time period Thank you for giving Cold Fear some love.

I've seen many games where I can play as a member of the US military, be it the army, the marines, the air force, and the navy. As far as I know, this is the one and only game where you play as a coast guard member, and it's in a horror setting
Honorable mention but Still wakes the deep also puts you as an oil rig engineer albeit without the shooting element
Wow mid-2000s has a lot of hidden gem. Especially PS2
Mhm.
Ps2 era was the golden age of gaming. Lot of gems that were published since gaming back then was more adventurous with their projects and not obsessed with "How can we milk the playerbase with a unfinished game?"
I miss the times I could go to a video game store and just stumble on a great AA game. Nowadays there is very little surprises in gaming
Those were the days, my man
There's a good reason why the PS2 is "still" the best selling console. Variety.
"Or add to that never ending backlog of Steam sale games you've never played"
I watch Boulder Punch to be entertained, not insulted.
@@Bloodbather91 same, i felt seen There haha
Hop to it.
@@nicolasriveros943I do in fact already have this on Steam but haven’t played it yet. I think I need to change that.

Cloverfield had an awesome online website and community back in the day
Better times.
Yeah when the internet was still relatively new and fun
Truly the greatest generation for gaming. This one is still in my box of PS2 games, never finished it though.
From the creators of Alone in the Dark New Nightmare! Comes a Cold Fear with a Cold Beer! I love the MGS2 UI and font. It's like The Thing the videogame, so much potential, but ultimately didn't penetrated the zeitgeist back then.
Learning it’s the same studio was a cool surprise. New Nightmare was my first Alone in the Dark and I really liked it when I rented it at age 13.

@@CrossHolder92really? These are really good news.
Before Still Wakes The Deep, this is the scariest survivor horror set in oil rig at the time. Still have this on my PS2.
Dude I really wanted to like still wakes the deep but it was just a walking sim
I've been waiting for you to do a video on this game! I love Cold Fear it is so underrated!
omg, I thought this was a fever dream!! thank you for bringing all these amazing games to the forefront @BoulderPunch!!! :3
Excellent video as always, man. Love that you talk about these games, so they don't get forgotten.
Not to dictate how you make content, but would you consider making a video on those "Unique game features you'd like to see indie devs explore" you spoke about in the video? 11:47 for reference
This is one of the best looking PS2 games and a very good horro-action game.
The way Cold Fear handles cameras was, is and will be how modern RE games should be
this was originally how RE4 was going to play, if you look the early versions(like the Hookman for example), they have fixed camera for the exploration and over the shoulder for combat
edit: the video literally mention this at 15:23 lol
I wish horror games in general used more interesting camera systems instead of "third person over the shoulder" all the time. Things haven't changed much since 2005.
nah, modern resident evil games are already really good no need to change the formula for a while
Fortunately Capcom doesn't listen to people like you and continues to give us gems in third and first person camera view.
Let's not go that far. Capcom has struck the perfect control scheme, and the first-person games only add variety to their formula.
Fixed camera angles wouldn't be received well from the general audience, and for good reason.
I love old RE games, too, but their gameplay is a thing of the past
Fun fact: there's an easter egg in Splinter cell double agent that's a reference to this game. It was an email on a laptop on the icebreaker mission.
God, when you listed the releases that surrounded this game, it brought me back to a time where you'd have literal GOTY contenders dropping nonstop.
What a time to be alive that was
18:28 That thing shocked me out of my wits back then. Wasn't used to running zombies - I think not even Res 4 had made them that quick. 😅
Now that's a blast from the past. Solid AA game, this one, from the time when big studios still made AA games. It could've been a franchise, I can totally see it. The sequel would've been so much better.
Anyone else see the AstroGoblin Play through of this gem? Glad to see the other side of commentary on it haha. Keep it up Boulder!
Always a great day when Boulder Punch brings out a new video.
I really like that you can actually die from your own dumb movement and fall off a boat or get electrocuted if you are not cautious enough from the environment. It actually reminds me of Raw Danger when you can die in a dumb way if not be careful.
I wonder if DSP realizes that any relevance he has is due to how often you poke fun at him on your channel hahaha
One of the most underappreciated survival horror games ever made by Ubisoft. I remembered playing this on the PC, and it's indeed a fun game. It'll be nice if they remaster Cold Fear.
I read 'Resident evil 4 on a boat' and instantly thought it was a Dead Aim video
Blonde hair american agent with a chinese hot chick 😅
Kinda checks out i guess
Theres definitely some inspiration from MGS2 as well, a military force raiding a ship in heavy rain conditions, even the life meter looks similar
It's MGS2 but every enemy is Vamp
4:39 *_JADE EMPIRE MENTIONED_*
I loved that game, I never hear anyone talk about it anymore.
I just remember the Mega64 video for it being part of the WTF Boom meme. Those were the days.
In the spanish translation, the voice for Tom Hansen was dubbed by the same guy who voiced Sam Fisher, so you have another Splinter Cell conection right there haha
Thank goodness the graphics still holds up well to this day. It still looks amazing and is scary dynamic! COLD FEAR deserves a REMASTER or a REMAKE!
Holy crap I remember this game as a kid and loving it. Just a wave of nostalgia
Wow this is a game I rented as a child and could never figure out, but the memory flew back in as soon as I saw some gameplay.
Good review! I see a lot of people giving this game love recently! Loved it back in the days, very underrated game. Subbed and liked, and after subbing I also saw you have videoes on so many of my favorite games!
I remember this game scared the crap out of me
I remember having the game on the original Xbox and being fascinated by its manual, particularly how the zombie designs look lifted from L4D despite being older. Ah, to be a baby again
Why is it that so many are playing this game now all of a sudden? Have everyone been living under a rock for the same amount of time?
This game is short but man if it isn't one of my favorite

Horror games using a ship as setting is severly underrated. I love both Cold fear and RE dead aim
In that case suggest Monstrum and Resident Evil Revelations
DSP is still playing WWE Champions? My god man
This and the game Run Like Hell fascinated me at the local blockbuster. Never did play this but did play a ton of RLH. Good times.

I love random DSP call outs, subscribed!
Played this game on my chipped Xbox when I was a kid, scared the shit out of me. I loved it.
Anyone remember the sick concept art?
I'm 29 and I can distinctly remember Cold Fear having a heavy marketing push. It even had an ARG that produced some creepy pictures that get posted frequently (without context) to this day on Reddit and Twitter.
I personally think 1998, 2004, and 2023 are the de facto best years in gaming.
I highly doubt 2023 will stand the test of time. The big releases of that year already lost most of their shine. Baldur's Gate III will never be finished, Tears of the Kingdom, after initial praise, went through the Skyrim exhaustion phase. Half the Metacritic 90+ titles are Remakes.
I always saw this in the stores back in the day, but didn't play it until 2020 and wish I had played it earlier.
bro really called a body a 'corpsicle'
"While drilling for oil they discovered the Exocel."
Ah, so this is the prequel to Still Wakes The Deep, then.
I think as a sequel (in timeline sense) as this set in 2000s.
Funny that, I just recently starting playing this underrated gem on my Odin.
i love this game
Bought a bootleg cd in India back in 2010-13
It had cold fear , penumbra igi 2 and 4th game where u start in a washroom and a crow or raven visits u through window
Never forget, Cold Fear gave us the WTF Boom meme...
I still think fondly of that Mega64 spoof interview.
14:48

If cold fear was released today I think it would do super well
That’s so odd I had never heard of this game and this is now the 2nd video essay I’ve seen on it this month .
I was so confused until I realized I was confusing Cold Fear with Deep Fear for the Sega Saturn lol
this is one game i really wish would get a remake or remaster
(4:25 - 5:18) F***. We will never get a year like 2004 again, and that just sucks.
Cold Fear definitely took inspirations from The Thing by John Carpenter
In the place where there is nothing, they found someTHING
cold fear is a hidden gem
Oh boy I’ve been waiting for this one!
There should be more boat related horror games.
I own a copy if this game and I agree, the box art is what sold it.
I hope nightdive remasters this game.
...funny how even it's idea of a boat to explore while using the boat's environment to make it out was taken by resident evil, albeit 10 years later with revelations.
{I don't count dead aim as one, it's a completely different genre, and two the main characters both came along with a full arsenal, it just was stolen from them}
I bought this game when I was 10 back in 2007. Played for 20min, got scared, never played it again.
18:51 Honestly, Flood vs Covenant and Flood vs Covenant vs Sentinels with Chief being a fourth party were kind of under underutilized imo, would have been nice to have more battles like that.
Meanwhile Halo 2 gave us one of the greatest moments in gaming at the end of Gravemind... You know what I'm talking about, in Mausoleum of the arbiter?
See, this is the kind of game that needs a reboot or remake. Add Fear Effect to that list as well....
COLD FEAR GOES SO HARD 😂 EXOCELLS WILL HAUNT ME UNTIL I DIE
Darkworks was a sleeper.
