Condemned: Criminal Origins is a fantastic demonstration of a title having a small scope, with laser-like focus and execution.
Condemned: Criminal Origins has one of the best 1st person combat systems around, with combat encounters carrying a lot of weight in those hits.

Condemned has an unsettling atmosphere that evokes dread in its approach to horror. I can't think of many Western titles that can match it on that front.
Condemned has great pacing, with short bursts of relief before the dread makes its way back in, and it doesn't wear out its welcome.
Even all these years later since its release in late 2005, Condemned stands as one of the better horror titles around, one which I consider a masterclass in horror.
If you do want to check out Condemned, and I highly recommend you do so, take a look at the pcgamingwiki page to get it running smoothly on modern systems.

I found this game more terrifying than most actual survival horror games. The fear of having a bunch of crazy people running around in the dark planning to jump out and just beat you to death with a blunt object is terrifying in a very special way.

@Dial8Transmition 2 года назад

I agree The more the horror is grounded in reality, the scarier it is. A hunted house or grotesque monsters does not add to up the horrors we can already find in real life. In this game you walk around an old abandoned school, looking for a serial killer that is known for torturing his victims to suicide, while fending off his crazed victims and drugged up looters. Now that's fucking scary

@sukamadik5983 2 года назад

@@Dial8Transmition I used to do that in a massive abandoned Asylum that used to be a hospital before that. It was very old structure to the point the hallways still had the round archways. Some section had been barricaded with about 20 ft long worth of filing cabinets but we managed to cross through the top considering it was an arch so they couldn't seal it all up with that. The elevator doors would swing open if you even tap them but it was nothing but pitch black and disgusting water at the bottom. Boy was that fun 😀👍.

The fact that the same studio released FEAR and Condemned, in the same year, is just a huge show of Monolith's skill at the time. Absolute classics. Living in the age of remasters now, I'd kill for a re-release of the two, with just a touch-up on textures and fixes for modern computers. I actually played through the entirety of Condemned in one sitting, one Friday night. It was a total thrill ride from start to finish. I actually fell asleep on the main menu, listening to that creepy title theme. I was lucky not to have nightmares!

@Louis-wp3fq 2 года назад

I'm a Silent Hill mega-fan, but Criminal Origins is THE most frightening game I've ever played. I yelled out LOUD at least twice in actual fear/panic! It also contains some genuinely great moments that have never left me. That point towards the end of the game where the tables have turned and the guy you've been running from is finally running from YOU, with the distortion effects on the screen... and you realize you're essentially the "star" of a video nasty! And then that final choice you get with the villain where you get a split second to act... either way, you never forget what happens. AND the corpse in the locker, obviously. Great horror uses all the tools against you, including your empathy. And I agree, it's one of the most well-constructed horror games I can think of. If only I could go back and play it again for the first time... both games need a modern remaster/facelift. (The "magic phone" you use would feel so much more plausible if it were a smartphone.)

@INFILTR8US 2 года назад

The "corpse" in the locker is one of the best jump scares of all time. I was playing the game in a fully lit room in the middle of a bright day and I still flew backwards from my monitor until I hit the wall. Family came when they heard the screams. Love this game, wish they would port the sequel to PC.

I seriously miss the late 90s-late 00s era of Monolith. They used to be such an ambitious company in in FPS market, now stuck working on boring licensed games. Condemned 1 is one of their best and I'd really love to see a reboot of the series. Also, imagine a VR condemned. As unlikely as that is, I at least wish a series like Outlast would draw inspiration from condemned and make it a survival horror brawler.

It's basically like assassin's creed and pretty much every open world dropping right now. Alot of people are content with that I just find it extremely boring and soulless.

@albertomartinez714 Год назад

One thing I love about this game is this almost supernatural undercurrent. The game ostensibly takes place in the real world, but there's always this otherworldly, dark dread lurking around every corner. It never quite manifests in anything overtly magical or anything, but I think it really nails the environment in creating the sense that your world is just not quite "right." What an awesome game.

@adam3647 2 года назад

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="177">2:57</a> To me this would be the first thing I would prioritize when designing a first person experience, horror especially. And if that impact is to be conveyed in more ways than just attacks, then sound immersion would surely be the next best thing to give weight and a further sense of impact in the world you've entered into. Your footsteps. Your hands picking up objects (the texture and weight of those objects being conveyed as clearly as possible as they slide into the hands of your character), pressing buttons, pulling levers. All of this needs a certain level of clarity, weight and grit, or else it'll come across exactly the way you described, like styrofoam. One of my favorites in recent years is the sound of you descending the stairs on your way to the door at the end of the hallway in the 2014 P.T. demo. It's to this day the most realistic, weighty sound I've heard in a game, and it transports me instantly. The importance of sound is huge.

@CeceliPS3 Год назад

I love when devs notice these things and take good care of sound design. It's the small stuff that makes it good, like ambient sound, wind, wooden floor squeaking, different footstep sounds based on the type of floor... And map design too. You're in a big area and suddenly you find yourself in a off the path small place with a cozy feeling of being in a place that you shouldn't or that nobody would know or be able to get you there thus giving you a sense of relief and wonder at the same time. When a game does that, man, it's the best. Off the top of my head I can think of HL2, HL Alyx and Mirror's Edge. But one thing I don't like it very much in games like FEAR: suspense music. Sure, it achieves its goal of injecting anxiety and the suspense itself, but this falls flat for 2 reason: it warns me that there's something ahead and the loud music prevents me from hearing footsteps, so I'm more afraid of no hearing enemies getting close rather than being afraid because of the forced atmosphere. I played the entire FEAR game without the music. Much better. PS.: Fallen Aces comes out this year :)

@budgetbrick5124 2 года назад

This game works as how to do horror without using Jumpscares or using a lot of them. And I generally like it's lack of explanation on what's going because the human mind will always make it more scary than if you saw it. And the levels feel like if you were walking in places that were abandoned years ago. The enemies were good and made them truly crazy people since you can get them to attack each other. And at one point it seem like the whole city is starting to go insane with reports of people attacking each other in one Point of the ame where you go outside in the city you hear police siren, helicopter up in the air and the crazy start coming out from fences and sewage holes. It is one of those rare times I felt lost and I was fine with it what we got explain was good enough and didn't try to explain every detail. It was good game that age like wine.

We got Bioshock, Alen Wake, hopefully Dead Space, now we just need Condemned to be remastered.

god this series had some memorable levels. Bart's department store, like most of the levels in Bloodshot. Man, I wish there was an easier way to play Bloodshot these days! Shame the series is dead

I used to play this at night with all the lights off and it was absolutely terrifying! One moment that I will never forget is when you fall through the floor then your flashlight flickers and you see two enemies walking towards you! Then they disappear while your frantically swinging in the dark! Scared the absolute pants off me! Or walking through the abandoned shopping mall and seeing the mannequin step off the pedestal and just walk away. So creepy! The abandoned house at the end of the game! Hearing the noises in the basement and knowing you would have to go down there at some point!! 😱

Loved this game and it’s sequel. I wish there was a third game.

I can't remember if it was this one or the second, but I made this game a comedy by only kicking the shit out of the bad guys. My end mission report always said "BOOT" was my preferred weapon lol

oof talk about a THROWBACK. I feel like by today's standards this game is criminally underrated. Definitely gave me constant goosebumps as a preteen.Heck even as a horror fan i tend to forget about it compared to Dead Space.

One of the greatest Horror games of all time. Sad so few people played it.

My kind of game. Love both of them.

The sequel desperately, desperately needs to be made available for PC. If there is a torrent out there I would jump right on it.
