Can't score much for originality but hey it's still a good game
User Rating: 8.8 | Condemned: Criminal Origins X360
Unlike some other tittles for the 360 this one isn't hindered for rushing to be a launch tittle. Graphic wise the character models are not the BEST out there but hold well for itself. The environments are done nicely good attention to detail. Occasionally areas feel like you have been there before when they house the same interactive objects such as tools, buckets, and the over use of a desk chair from the first level. The fighting system is very real feeling and when you fight it really does seem like it's for your life. The controls for fighting are simplistic and don't have anything to offer after the first couple (except for the finish moves). The flashlight idea is straight from Doom 3 where you need it almost the entire game in oder to see certain areas and they don't reward you for turning it off. The detective work is the only original thing about this tittle, it has some pretty neat features and work nicely throughout the game. Like I mentioned for originality it simply borrows on what other games have coined but have made it into one great game and makes my list for games to buy your 360
