Condemned, an oldie but goodie.

Just finished this tonight, twice on the last level to earn both compasion and revenge achievements. It's a very good game, scared the bejasus out of me a number of times. It's also cheap now that it can be picked up second hand. No game I've ever played prior to this had the ability to make the hair on my neck stand up. This was the creepies one, I swear the writers are really into their horror and scare tactics.

Excellent stuff.

I have to say i really enjoyed it as well, it is quite creepy, there is is a sequel on the way as well .

Yeah I heard the sequel will flesh out some of the flaws in the original.

Yeah quality game, you can pick it up pretty cheap nowadays. It also features the funniest boss ever.

Definitely a goodie, very tense game. What I've seen so far of the sequel looks good, interested to see how that pans out.

A definite poop yourself game, especially in that department store, I had to turn the console off a couple of times to collect myself, honestly!

Yeah, that place was so well done, the smell of fear was felt in lumps a couple of times.

What is the sequel called?

Condemned 2: Bloodshot.

Damn, beat'd

Sounds good - I think I'll pick it up 2nd hand.

How does Condemned fare against the likes of the Silent Hill franchise in terms of jump-outta-your-seat-what-the-fook-was-that atmosphere?

There's a demo of condemned on XBL. Check it out. It's the first level. Good luck!

There's also a film in the works (although with the current strike, it could be a while).
