The later FEAR sequels should have focused on different paranormal stories, with different squads and sections of the F.E.A.R team, and not just be focused on the Alma/Paxton/Point Man family drama. FEAR1 or Extraction Point should have been either of the perfect end points. Though it makes EP a much more downer ending, if you pick its ending as the definitive end of the story-line.

Absolutely no mercy invulnerability. If you get caught between two enemies, that's it for you.
Better yet, no extra lives, and if there are continues, it's only from the beginning of each stage. No mid-stage checkpoints or revival on the spot; if you run out of health, it's back to the start of the stage with you.

That's literally Double Dragon 1 and Battletoads on NES.
