Backlog Resolution: Condemned: Criminal Origins Chapter 5
0Shopping for clues at the old abandoned department store, we finally find the guy we thought we were looking for, leaving more questions than answers. Also the enemies here are very sneaky and health kits are quite elusive. If only the police were actually useful, just like in most modern cop fiction and literally nowhere else.
Condemned: Criminal Origins is a 2005 Xbox 360 launch title from F.E.A.R. creators Monolith. Playing the role of Ethan Thomas of the FBI, you investigate a rise in serial killer cases and violent outbursts, which may be connected to the mysterious deaths of local birds in large numbers, all while experiencing visions that let you see a glimpse into the minds and actions of the killers you're chasing. A first person game with an emphasis on careful combat and even more careful resource management, Condemned is perhaps a predecessor to other notable survival horror titles such as the Amnesia series.
