i just bought the Fear bundle on steam today and am wondering.....why the heck is fear 2 such a huge game? its 14 GBs and compared to #1(7gb) and #3(3gb) what makes it so special?(im new to the series so this is coming from a fear noob)

-curious because it seems odd

I read in a forum that FEAR 2 uses a lot of multi-layered textures and high definition full motion videos, maybe this is the reason. Also JobCreator has a point - I played all three FEARs and the one I liked the most is FEAR 2 and it also looked the best, my second place was FEAR 1 and I didn't like FEAR 3... and that fits nicely with the fright/GB for me...
