I just got Condemned today and was already determined to write a review on it, but I can't put the controller down to find enough time to. The only con in this game in my perspective is that some of the character models are not very detailed. The detail is made up with game play though. I had read reviews that this game was scary, but I had to try for myself. Once again, wow... I'm still stunned by how addicting this game is. I can't get over the fact of how great the combat is in this. I feel that this game was overlooked by alot of people because it has no live gameplay, which is a downer, I think it could have awesome online play. When I first started playing it I didn't expect much and I was just sprinting through the first stage... I seen a see a can roll across the floor, then a shadow, I follow. I end up in a pretty brutal fight and all of a sudden I turn around and WHAM! 2x4 in the face. It took the breath right out of me. It's like one of those movies where it has the loud and sudden scary parts. I still can't get over how you can run up to one of those diseased, crack addicts and whack them in the face with a sledge hammer, them start to get back up and you kick em. When they fall to their knees you feel victory as you go up and headbutt them or break their neck.
This game is really great, do not over look this game. Try it once and you'll fall in love with it. I hope I inspired some of you to try this game out. It's worth the time.
Tommorow I am buying 2 new games. I was thinking COD2 and PGR3 but I will probably get Condemned instead of PGR3.

wait till you knock teeth out with the sledge hammer =)
Yeah, they just spit their teeth out like it's nothing. I'm really enjoying this game but I'm having a hard time choosing whether I want to play it or not. My xbox is on the other end of the house... I don't wanna scream like a little girl and wake everyone up tonight.
