It's Max Payne, with less shooting and without the corny monologue!

Condemed is a good game but I'm not quite sure what to make of it. The graphics are spot on! The thugs, bums, crooks, and whatever half those other things are attack you with convincing fervor. This game is well worth your time if your totally into the dark Seven-ish sort of world, or just like being the rogue agent who can't trust anyone. I have mixed feelings about the story, its presentation is excellent but it leaves you hanging at the end. I like a story to leave you guessing a little but this story leaves almost nothing resolved. Perhaps that suggests a sequel is in the works. As for the gameplay it gets a little repetitive, but if you like being freaked out (like in Resident Evil) you won't be disapointed. The problem is you won't have the comfort of lots of firearms and ammo, because most of the fighting is done by melee. All in all, this is a good game with a somewhat original style of execution, which is great because so many games nowadays lack originality.
