Condemned is F*CKING ME UP (spoilers)

[AmishSlayer]

I agree it was alittle to easy but i think thats because its still a victom of being a console game 1st. I dont agree on the FEEL/mechanics tho. I think the feel is VERY important and the mechanics are based on what game needs what.

You have a point. I think the "feel" aspect of Condemned was ruined for me a lot earlier because I just didn't get pulled into the whole experience. The copious amounts of addicts, the shoddy policework (not the investigation stuff - the fact that those 2 officers were killed and suddenly you're the suspect), the 2+ story fall into the car rooftop and just waking up in your apartment. All of this stuff has just taken away from the feel of the game for me and at this point I just play it when I have nothing better to do. This is why I think the mechanics are more important now when I play it.

Just played through the demo and I don't think it's scary at all . The things that I don't like are that the character moves to slow and there are no jump or crouch functions WTF? I LMAO when I beat the crap outta one dude with a locker door

Hahahahhaha no.

The demo is a walk on a sunny day compared to the rest of the levels.

Exactly, I played the demo before knowing what the game was about and my overall impression did not include it being a game targeted toward scaring you.

But after playing a couple hours yesterday, hot damn this is thrillingly scary.

I'm in the mall right now, and after reading a few posts in here, holy shit I'm scared to play on

 

[Pesmerga]

I'm in the library now. It's less scary now, but much much much more difficult.

 

[AzzMan]

Condemned + mushrooms = :O

 

[Przemek]

LOL, try that out, AzzMan and come back to tell us your experience... if you'll still be in this plane of existence

 

[Asuka]

Condemned + mushrooms = :O

LMFAO
:rolling:

 

[Bad^Hat]

I think this is the first instance where I've actually been turned OFF from trying a game due to all the positive feedback it's getting

Damn my squeemishness/jumpiness.

 

[Unfocused]

Hm, I heard about this game, but completely missed the release etc., just didn't give it much interest. Now I think I'm going to download the demo

 

[AzzMan]

I just finished the game and all I have to say is, WTF!?!?! I didnt get anything that was going on except the story with SKX, other than that (metal pieeces, birds, those weird demon things, and all the people in the city) I have no idea wtf they have to do with each other. Do I have to get more of the achievement awards to find this stuff out? Or is it just kinda left open on purpose?

 

[Przemek]

I didn't get anything either. I don't even know what caused the birds deaths. And why did I have to collect them all? Dead birds? Come on!
I have no clue what are those metal pieces for.
I didn't understand the ending at all...

Is this some kind of a deep and complex story line my mind was unable to comprehend? :|

It's gonna have a sequel, that's why, just like why Monolith left FEAR open at the end

I got to the farmhouse level and got bored, it was still scaring me, but I was getting bored of always being afraid of shitting my pants around the next corner, so I'm done with it

SPOILERS:

The demon guys were your inner-demons. At the end when you have a choice, you either give in to the evil inside you and shoot SKX, or ignore it and let him live (well, until he commits suicide). But obviously the demons can never be defeated, he's still inside you at the very end, regardless of your choice.
As for the birds and the drug-addled crazies, there was a frequency coming from somewhere that led to problems in the brain, killing birds and driving slightly crazy people homicidal. It's just never explained where the frequency is coming from. I don't understand the significance of the metal pieces though. And what was with the mannequins in that one department store sequence? I didn't really get why they threw in this supernatural stuff. I mean the demons make sense, I think that was a great way of showing personal struggle in a video game, but the mannequins, that just seemed to make no sense at all.

 

[AzzMan]

Those mannequins were actaully just some of those crazy mother****ers dressed up as mannequins.

Yes they said they are making a 2nd part. Another thing they said was that the 2nd game will lead into the movie they are making or the other way around. Cant remember the details.

 

[Unfocused]

I just played the demo. And then played it again.

I really like it! The weapons are sweet, the sound and voices are great. You can feel the anger of your enemies. And checking the ammo in your weapon is cool.

I think I have to get the full version

 

[bam23]

I'm at the department store. This place is messed up. Throughout the whole level I was whacking mannequins to see their heads pop off. I never expected any of them to actually be one of those crazy dudes, got really surprised when I killed someone :|.
