Condemned: Criminal Origins

Monolith Productions, Sega | Released Nov 15, 2005

Condemned: Criminal Origins, a suspense-filled, first-person psychological thriller game, allows players to experience an unnatural level of psychological tension as they use their instincts, forensic tools to track serial killers and bring them to justice. Gamers will play as Ethan Thomas, an FBI agent in the Serial Crimes Unit (SCU), whose pursuit of relentless serial killers leads him through detailed urban environments filled with deadly sociopaths who lurk on the periphery of humanity. Condemned: Criminal Origins features brutal melee combat, photo-realistic backdrops, life-like physics, and highly sophisticated artificial intelligence. Weapons and ammunition are scarce, leaving the player to improvise against a gallery of mentally deranged criminals. Careful detective work and precision reflexes are a player's primary means of survival. Inspired in part by the films of the psychological thriller sub-genre, Condemned: Criminal Origins maintains an intense, focused pace.

Amazing game, making their way to the bone! Music, atmosphere, gameplay - is perfect!
Ten hours of leisurely soaked in anxiety, fear and stench of slum dwellers. From walking instead of constant running, the cruel and brutal, bloody massacre, requiring attention to detail, because we did not come here to kill, but to investigate. Slowly approaching the roundabout, we further penetrate into the cabinet of curiosities waste civilization unnecessary things, abandoned buildings, and citizens who lost the remnants of his humanity.
School, village farm, a library, subway, supermarket, train station ... Add the twilight, convex mangy rust on the walls, piles of garbage, soft shadows, pixel shader, hallucinations, gut-wrenching soul sound effects, ruthless villains, and you get a perfect score for a loosening of the nerves. Eternal Torch, whose bright beam visible only Ethan, not calm shaking hands - the authors skillfully playing on the expectations of the viewer. They inject into blood adrenaline to within a second and strictly measure a doze of fear. Monolith whispered, "boo" - and you jump. Because a truly creepy.
