Which condemned is the scariest

Overall, this was until the best Horror game produced for Please buy it and give it the recognition it deserves. Was this review helpful? Sign in to vote. This is basically F.

Made by the same company, made on the same engine and also came out the same year. And just like in F. There are many great things about the AI and I especially like the enemy's ability to hide, which can really catch you off guard sometimes.

This game focuses on melee combat, instead of F. The melee combat can get pretty satisfying when you get the hang of it and the animation for the enemies is amazing. Few games also manage to make finding a simple firearm with ammo in it as satisfying as Condemned. I also recommend playing the game without the taser, as it makes the game much more interesting and exhilarating when you don't constantly cheat and take the easy way out of a tough situation with the taser, like I've seen most players do There are many intense battles throughtout the game, but the most memorable ones can be the firefights.

The feeling of trying to figure out how to deal with an enemy who's armed with a gun when you only have a melee weapon And the rare gun vs. Gun battles. The story is very interesting. And the characters are good. I only don't care much for the Rosa character. She's fine for most of the story, but at one point she really stumbled into a hole when she told the main character that very few people can tell her to shut up and get away with it after he tells her to be quiet when she calls him during an intense hiding moment, almost getting him caught.

That's Karen-level attitude. The game also has top class voice acting that shines especially when enemies are yelling with enraged voices in the distance. The game has great voice acting throughout, but the enemies during gameplay outshine everyone.

Condemned: Criminal Origins is without a doubt the best Xbox launch title, as nothing else in the lineup comes close to it. Truly an essential purchase for anyone buying at launch! Margera 28 October When you buy a game such as Condemned, you'd expect the same stuff different genre. But when you install the game to your computer or pop it into your XBOX , you start to realize that you were terribly mistaken. Condemned Criminal Origins takes the guy we loved as the Doctor who's neck was punctured in Hollow Man, Greg Grunberg, and puts him in the world where being fat and puffy is an okay thing.

Agent Thomas arrives at a crime scene late one night in a city I can only assume is New York in an old, dilapidated building with criminals and druggies running amok. You enter the crime scene, a grisly sight of faceless mannequins, a man-doll with a disfigured face, and a young woman, half-naked and strangled to death.

After investigating the scene awhile, one of the officers smells smoke and decides to check it out. This decision will launch the game into the horror side, which is good for developers and bad for you so don't forget to thank that fat detective who doesn't know the phrase "Curiosity killed the fat detective.

The reason for lowness in graphical score was because the characters were way to puffy to be really taken seriously. Strange considering that two shots to the tummy did both the puffy officers in later in the game.

Ethan Thomas' face almost reminds me of the guy from Doom 3. That being said, he still looks like a 49 year old man with a 34 year old voice. Sound wasn't bad. I would rate it at a 9 for creativity. It actually sounds like he is coming from the back of the room.

I haven't heard that type of sound since Half Life 2. The Concept of the game is what i've been really itching to get to. Don't let the front cover deceive you, it's nothing like SAW. In fact SAW probably kicks the drugged up stuffing out of this game then hits it repeatedly with kicks to the skull.
