"First Person shooter with a twist. Fantastic combination of detective and action gaming."
Pros: Brilliant story and unique intense action.
Cons: Dated graphics.
Summary: ?Condemned: Criminal Origins,? was a refreshing change from the conventional first-person shooters that clog up the space on my shelf. The best way to sum it up is- C.S.I meets ?Resident Evil.? However, even this doesn?t do the game justice. I am not a fan of horror movies and yet I could still appreciate the game?s ability to shock and disturb you in the same way. The game offers you a wide choice of weapons ranging from fire-arms stolen from victims, to dismembered manikin models, or anything in the fully interactive environment. These weapons each have different qualities which you will need to fend off the drugged up psychos of the American underworld. The game has another unique side, where you put your mind to the test in a forensic environment. Luckily, this is not too difficult and so the player will not get bored. The only down side is the quality of the graphics compared to the latest first person shooters.
Whether battering a criminal with a sledge hammer or scouring a crime scene for a clue, ?Condemned? is a first-rate game. ?Well done SEGA?
