Sega's foray into next-gen survival horror begins with Condemned: Criminal Origins, courtesy of
Monolith. This title certainly impressed
us last month at an Xbox 360 preview event, and we're eager to produce a full review in the coming weeks. In
the meantime, check out what other critics are saying:
-
1UP (80/100) - "The game serves as an excellent showcase of next-generation gaming, simply because you couldn't evoke the same pack of deep down trauma hounds from within the player if it weren't for Condemned's stunningly vile environments and high-resolution textures."
-
IGN (87/100) - "[Condemned] isn't a long game and it only has one game mode, but it's an unforgettable experience. At no point in the game will you be calm or feel comfortable, and that's the best part about it."
-
GameSpot (80/100) - "It's just that the longer you play, the more you'll wish that there were more substance to the experience."
-
GameSpy (90/100) - "[Condemned] manages to stand on its own as a wholly unique experience, making it one of the system's must-play launch games."
