The original Condemned: Criminal Origins was overlooked by many gamers and is
still one of the best games on Xbox360.
Unlike many other games in the thriller/horror genre, this game actually scared
you. It has a great blend of amazing 5.1 audio, a great 1st person fighting
system and storyline. The game play remained unnerving till the end and never at
one point did you feel “safe”.
Condemned 2 returns to continue the story of Ethan and what has become of
his life since the previous game's ending.
The fighting system has been made even more brutal and destructive than the last
game. More guns are now available and a real focus on Ethan's hand-to-hand
combat ability has been addressed. Finishing moves are expanded including the
use of environmental finishers. Ever thrown a crazed man's head through a
television before? Now you can.
If you're looking a for a game with a gritty, unnerving ambience, a gripping storyline and violent combat… then look no further than Condemned 2.
Excellent game, I have played it 3 times and great everytime, good combination of fighting and forensics one moment you'll be smashing an enemy with a piece of wood and then you'll be following a trail of blood through spooky corridors, constantly looking behind you to make sure your not being followed. Condemned 2 is alround a great game that everyone should try.
Condemned: Criminal Origins was one of the Xbox 360's most underrated game as it is still, in my opinion one of the best games on the 360. The story was cery good, you got a heap of scares. The Ai could have used some work (Hoping they see to that in this one) I'm definately going to pick this game up and i'm also going to hope it doesn't get looked past by many gamers.
The original Condemned would have had to of been the most underrated game for the 360, in my opinion it was the best launch title and still lives up to games even over a year on from release, the story was excellent, i'd have to place it in my top 10 games, yes it's that good! I cannot wait for the second one! With added multiplayer it will have plenty of replayability. This is a must buy!
