Decided to give a go at testing and tinkering with FEAR 3 (Steam).
Config: openSUSE 12.1 64 bit, AMD X2 6400+, 8GB RAM, nVidia GTX260 using binary drivers from nVidia, CX Games 10.2.1.
Started with a default CXG/Steam configuration, and installed FEAR 3. Launching churns for a bit, there is a quick flash of the FEAR 3 splash logo, and then it crashes with a "Program Error The program F.E.A.R. 3.exe has encountered a serious problem and needs to close."
Seems some people have got it working in Wine: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=13214
