If this game is great, God only knows what will come next...
Considering that the game is slightly short, I dont think there is any other criticism, in fact, there is none other. The graphics, as we all know, are full to use, the scenery and objects along with its textures are simply breathtaking. Okay, its not completely real, computer games are supposed to be exact human eye vision. They're games and they're fun, this game is fun.
The story begins well, you, as a FBI agent, is framed for the two murders of two police officers. Cruel it maybe but you actually see the killer and who he is, so, the game sets its tone from the start. From the start atleast you know the plot, the plot to find the killer and bring him to justice, if not kill him for revenge. And theres more but I wont spoil the fun, you just have to give it a right go.
The sound is surpisingly good and is steady, with the sound effects spot on but I did feel that it need a 'umph!' in the music, especially where it got really creepy and at times, making you jump. The A.I. is one big bonus point on this game because it promotes the 'randomless violence' of human beings. It so good that you feel the urge to really wack the game as he seems, how would I put it "too clever". By having the challenge to beat these enemies with many methods and the harsh atmosphere, you feel as if it may though be abit dull that you spend 90% with the flashlight (the rest using investigation tools).
Nevertheless, do not be put off this, its only a small thing compared to what the game truly shows and offers. A challenge, balance between soft and hard approach, surpassing the great A.I. and choosing your ending.
A spectacle, I really do hope theres even bigger games than this because Condemned sets the benchmark, I want that benchmark to be beaten time and time again.
