User Rating: 7.5 | Condemned: Criminal Origins PC
By Jonte187 | Review Date:
Basically this game was just run a round and kill enemy's nothing more than that and thats what you want if you like FPS games, so in this order the game fulfill its purpose. But the interesting difference was the weapons using mostly a blunt weapon does have a charm. First i thought it would be dull just carry one weapon but this is really one of the games strongest feature.
The graphic is ok and have some real nice details but still i think its sterile and dull.
The biggest drawback is the game time i completed the game on 8 hours, if you pay pretty much money for a game you expect to get more.
I think the FPS genre should evolve on this matter making longer games with variation and more interesting stories.
The story had some creepy elements and unlike most games of the genre the story was more integrated to the usual game play.
I think the sound best i ever heard for some time good voice-acting and nice effects, couldn't get enough of that pipe ramming someones head.
