XBOX 360 - Condemned Scares The Crap Out Of Me
Of all the Xbox 360 launch titles, the one I was most looking forward to playing was Sega’s Condemned: Criminal Origins. Which makes it kind of odd that I only got the game yesterday. But I sunk a few hours in last night and I am sufficiently creeped out.
The first fifteen minutes of Condemned saw me with mixed emotions. On the one hand, I was scared out of my mind walking down the incredibly detailed darkened hallways, wondering if every little noise I heard was a crazy two-by-four-wielding madman sneaking up on me from behind. On the other hand, I was grinning from ear to ear at just how atmospheric the game was. The hell with King Kong’s wet shiny rocks; the HD era really arrived in my home with Condemned’s dilapidated crap-filled hallways.
