It's a fairly new concept that has it's moments but it doesn't really deliver the punch that I would have thought. Let's start with the two best things the graphics and the sound, two words, "frickin scary". The developers did a fantastic job of setting this really freaky setting that its' really hard to keep playing. The gameplay is ok it's pretty innovative you have a block button and a hit or shoot button. It kinda sucks that you can only hold one weapon at a time, although it is fairly realistic. Overall the gameplay is pretty good but often get's repetitive but never really boring. The thing that condemned really falls on it's sword is a lack of an online component, it would be very interesting if they could have had an online component. It kinda suck because with alot of the 360 games they don't really have a great online component.
