Condemned looks fantastic, I am green with envy knowing the Xbox 360 gamers get to play this game...But I was checking out some websites (IGN, Ebgames.com etc.) and from what I found so far, I guess it is safe to say that we will be able to investigate those creepy criminal dwellings on our beloved PS3's....w00t!

These are some sites I found:

Gamespy: Condemned PS3 (http://ps2.gamespy.com/playstation-3/condemned/)
IGN: Condemned PS3 (http://ps3.ign.com/objects/728/728998.html)
Gamepro: Condemned PS3 (http://www.gamepro.com/sony/ps3/22507/info.shtml)

Condemned is a fantastic game, a very refreshing look at your typical FPS. It is on the short side but this shouldnt by any means stop people from playing the game (if u dont wanna buy it you should definetely give it a rental).

As far as I know it should be a launch title for the PS3, hopefully Sega will add something to the package since there is an additional 6 months in the dev schedule (hopefully another level or online co-op).

Any extra's would be welcomed for sure, but even if it was just ported over (Good Port that is) with no changes...I would still be very happy. I also hope Bethesda ports Oblivion over to PS3 one day...Wishful thinking I guess!

Condemed is not so good, story is terrible and gameplay is nothing special, all the cool stuff happens at the beggining then I quote "It is nothing but a downward spiral of a CSI mishap from there without all the cool gadgets from CSI" Wish what you want but the games graphics are all it has going for it and even that isn't extreme, Quake 4 is much better ^,^ IMO of course...

I would definitly love a port of Oblivion even though I am going to get it for the pc.

I played the beginning on a friends 360, graphics were good, but the overall creepy atmosphere is what grabbed me. I checked out the reviews on it and they were nothing special. You are probably right then, maybe this game is only worth a rental!

Quake 4 is insane. This is what Doom 3 should have been all along. My 6600 GT (OC) card just screams with this game same with COD2!

360? what?....what is that? Xbox? huh?:shrug:

Yeah, don't get me wrong the beggining was scary as hell and the game looked cool and the concept worked very well with the gadgedts and such it just didn't use what was there as much as it should've and the story is REALLY bad you run around and kill "Crazed and drugged up ppl" Your a cop killing ppl crazy... It's kinda like Doom 3 in the fact it had potential, it was just shallow, I still enjoyed Doom 3 though, ppl made WAY too big of a damn deal about the flashlight problem. Geez in HL2 it's the future yet your flashlight dies every 10 seconds??? hmm I smell fish... Rental, sure, buy, nah... not unless you have a fetish for knocking teeth out of ppl's mouths with a pipe O.O Wait I do.... never mind ^.- heh heh.... Silly Condemned game.

Quake 4 is definitly what Doom 3 should've been, just got it today, on my 850xt pe the game is a beautiful game, it's actually fun!!! and scary and gory as all hell, ^.^ call me twisted but I love it!!! The main machine gun is awsome with that sweet zoom feature, I love old school run and gun shooters!!! Can't wait for "Black"... Cod 2 is sweet as well, beat it just last week, had to sell it though because I came up short on Christmas money ^.^

HL2 is my online game so I wont miss cod2 too much, DOD Source is so much fun to play even though I suck at it, same with Counter Strike Source, ppl take those game too serious though >.> makes me angry!

While being a "refreshing" new titles I've played the game and let's just say refreshing may not always be fun. I guess the only thing I will be doing with this game is comparing the differences (visually) between the PS3 and 360 version.

as with other X2 games like Q4, PS3 wasn't mentioned. this means it is a 50/50 chance of it coming to PS3. just like how UT07 wasn't mentioned for X2. that doesn't mean it won't come.

Yeah, that pretty much seems it up for me. I only saw some pictures of it and some short gameplay video( a guy picking up a pipe and hitting people with it)..errr fun(sarcasm). I dont even like the way the games looks(last time i saw it looked kinda shinny like Gears of War)..argh..turn off.

Not going to lose sleep if this Condemned never comes out for the PS3, IMO its average game.

Its too bad you suck at DOD:S, im better than average as far as DOD:S goes, i play different class, but with the sniper class i usually play alittle bit crazy, using my sniper rifle as a shotgun with many kills :D

Well perhaps we disagree.
How much time have you spent with the game.


http://www.gamerankings.com/htmlpages2/926309.asp

Looks like an average of 82 percent, also nearly every reviewer marked down their numbers because of the short play time in the game (about 10-12 hours).

I haven't played Condemned, but from what I understand it's over shadowed by it's sister title FEAR on PC. If you want to play a spooky monolith shooter, fear is your first choice.

We disagree a lot it seems... nothing personal as of yet. Lets just say I am patient but not patient enough for that game, plus I've talked to a very sincere kid whose an xbox360 whore who beat the game and said it was nothing special. 8.2 is an average buddy, nothing new nothing great, like doom3 and the other onslaw of fps's that have been coming out.

Not like those reviewers ever know what they are talking about, shit some of those launch titles were balls and they got 8's, the last honest review I read online was for the 360 basketball game and they gave it a 5.1 and I almost screamed for joy "finally an honest reviewer who isn't afraid to say shit is shit"

Go Gamespot!!!!.....
"The Good: Ferocious first-person hand-to-hand combat looks completely insane; compelling premise puts you on the trail of a deranged serial killer; morbidly unsettling atmosphere (in a good way!); excellent presentation."

^ Finally a good looking game for the 360 and it has violence out the ass???

"The Bad: Boring level design makes you get lost in hallway after hallway; not much depth or variety to the combat after the first few hours; storyline teases more than it delivers."

^ Sounds like 10 hours of fun!??.... exactly, do yourself a favor and play F.E.A.R you'll thank me later...

Don't get your hopes up for a PS3 Condemned. It's been cancelled before the Xbox 360 even launched.

Quake 4 isn't even a full-fledged survival horror, yet you compare it with Condemned. Strange that.

Yeah, I need to sit down and practice on that game some more, I am no sniper that's for sure. I like how fast paced it is, It's like a small dose of Battlefield 1942 when I don't have enough time to play battlefield which is almost always now... damn bills and jobs and money...

Ouch... Hmm I see a trend goin on here...

Hey do you know what game is not condemned? Black, and god does that game look good, at least they came out and said "this game doesn't have a story, we just want you to kill, and kill good" ^.^ honesty is great ne?

Problem is so many games end up this way...they start out great but fall flat...I hate that! From what you've explained so far it sounds like a dud! I was hoping for somthing unique but it is afterall just a release title!

Nice quote BTW!


If you're twisted than I am completly fuct, Those obscure, gory/scarry as hell games are just too much fun. Riddick was my favorite game this year...I loved all those prison fights I got into....those cocky fuckers giving me the smack talk...than I'd just lace the shit outta them.....ah..and then than mini mech level....all those poor dead guards....I'm gonna cry!

Oh yeah...play Thief...w00t!

FEAR...At first I didn't much care for it...I wanted more scares and less run and gun...until I started using the slow motion mode....that is just way too much fun! FEAR is one game I will play again!

I own FEAR its not really all that great.


So you dont have a 360 and have very limited time with the games yet you feel confident to judge them based on one or two reviews that belittle the games. That really sounds rather fan-boyish and biased. Oh and Im sure all the other reviewers have no idea what they are talking about especially considering that they depend on the quality of their reviews to stay in business.

I understand if you personally dont care for the game or the console or whatever but the majority here says that it is a good game(which I happen to agree with).

Condemned looked cool to me when it was first announced. However, I've heard mixed reviews of it being bad and good, too short, dull, fun, etc. Doesn't matter, I'll still get it if it ever comes to PS3, just to try it out.

Woundingchaney, you're one of the first that has said that F.E.A.R is not a great game. Then again I don't really like Prince of Persia on current gen consoles so nothing odd about your stance. ;)

If we look through the reviewers, F.E.A.R is quite up there; usually scoring 90%. It's a really amazing FPS with blood, gore and lets not forget about the "striking" language. Others should get it. :)

Now it's personal Chaney... I don't like you or your opinions, you just like to disagree and it's getting bad.

Forgive me Danji for making this thread look bad but I have to open my mouth at least this once.

Don't be a dick Chaney, your the ONLY one disagreeing. F.E.A.R owned the shit out of just about every FPS this year, HL2 is it's only succesor as of now, Condemned is weak compared to those. F.E.A.R also has an online component (which a certain game is lacking) that rocks, same with HL2. What's wrong with F.E.A.R Chaney? "It has a plot I don't like it"

I have free Fridays and Saturdays, I just don't waste them playing shit, that's all I am saying, not I am a slave to my job.

No, IGN and them rely on people like you to listen to their fanboyish bsing and as long as the market is happy so are they, just look at their articles, they spend hours just renaming them to make it look like they have new news just to get traffic and you trust their opinion? are they reliable? not really, their reasons for liking games are terrible, they look at it like "well I like the game, so it's good". The guy on the psi main page that wrote the top 10 games of 05 is a fine example of what an IGN writer is like, bat-shit crazy, his list is so opinionated Maybe it has something to do with me being a spy nut, but at the end of it all CT entertained me just a bit more than RE4.
Yeah that's the ONLY reason that tom clancy game is even on the list, because he "liked it". Ign has ppl who say shit like "hey Dynasty warriors has rock music... again, and I am not a fan of rock. -2 points."

If I had enough free time I'd be a game reviewer and editor for this site (almost was, maybe this summer) like Danji but untill then, Danji's opinion mixed with my knowledge and playing experience is much more accurate than IGN's bs.

How am I basing my opinion on two reviews? I read everyone of those reviews on the game ranking page plus I played the damn game at my friend Justin's house. Biased my ass I just have high standards of what a "great game" really is.

What kinda fan boy am I?! Playstation? hell no, I own maybe 3 ps2 games nowadays. I own more DS games and damn I am no nintendo fanboy. PC? ugh... sure... 360's crap RIGHT NOW and you know it too, their is still hope though, not my fault launch sucked and it's still getting hyped.

Don't play smartass with me, not too many ppl said condemned was great, they said it looked good and it was a nice shot at a next gen game but still fell short but should be "tried out", and everyone "HERE" says they'd be willing to "give it a try", certainly not worth $50 to own. If condemned is "great" then F.E.A.R is a god amongst games.

No offense Chaney but when Moderators dispise you, your in trouble, and their is at least one that does. Don't play with fire... especially when your already covered in gasoline buddy.


Jupiter, I just started playing Thief Deadly Shadows, I am a huge fan of the first Thief game and Riddick was a nice twist on FPS games, shanking mofos and all. I loved Manhunt, guess that makes me kinda twisted.

Well off to NY I go to enjoy some free vacation time. Peace out!!

To clarify on my oppinion, the game is shallow and I hold no interest in playing it on the PS3. The CSI concept was cool and it's too bad they threw it out the window. The graphics are terrible on it and I think that most next gen games should surpass PC which Condemned did not.

Playing experience, knowledge of game development in general, and others' oppinions all make the best way to form an oppinion on a game. Reviews are one of the worst but they do help to form a good one.

As for what nodieza likes...shit..that guy, he likes the Playstation spirit but doesn't own that many games (as he said) but has the most games for the DS among me and all of my friends.

But F.E.A.R....come on Wounding, that's cold. It's a solid title and probably the best FPS since HL2. If it were ported to the PS3, I would say the graphics would be disappointing but the gameplay is really awesome.

To play down the absolutly stunning action in F.E.A.R is like downplaying the whole concept of what an FPS is.

The gameplay in F.E.A.R improves on the very basic concepts of how a shooter should play.

I'm guessing you aren't looking forward Black either Chaney since it plays on the whole concept of improving how guns feel, fire, and effect the environment like F.E.A.R?

Anyways, Condemned is just an okay game. It isn't bad, but it isn't worth the price it is selling for.

Condemned's first-person gameplay is very innovative, but Chronicles of Riddick was a much better game and did the whole first-person melee combat just as good.

Nod all I said was that I dont care for FEAR, I own the game, I beat the game, it just doesnt stand out to me. Thats all. What the hell does FEAR have anything to do with what we are talking about. FEAR was a good game but it wasnt really anything overly impressive to me, excellent action sequences but really rather bland throughout the rest of the game. That was my take on the game, its actually a good game but I wasnt impressed by it (its nothing that you cant find else where). If I made a thread about FEAR being a horrible game I would expect backlash because its not true and the same can be said about your stance on Condemned. I could go on and on about about FEAR's lack of characters on screen, weak storyline, repetetive env., repetetive action sequences which are all faults to the game, but that doesnt by any means make it a bad game (do you see what Im getting at here).

This guy made a thread about Condemned, then I came into the thread said "Hey that condemned is a good game you should try it out". You come in the thread and give your expert opinion as to why it isnt. I didnt quite agree so I posted the gamer ranking scores that showed it to be a good game. You then replied Hey those scores are ridiculous blah blah blah and then went on to quote one score of several proclaiming it to be the holy grail of all Condemned reviews. I then replied that I thought your view was biased and somewhat fanboyish. If you look at many posts on these boards the arguments and discussions are very one sided and fanboyish. I own the game, I enjoyed the game, the majority of reviews agree that it is a good game, yet Im wrong. Thats fine if you personally dont care for the game, the majority agrees with me, so yeah I must be a blathering idiot that has nothing better to do than disagree with everything posted on this board.

I could care less what Mod doesnt care for me. I am here to voice an opinion, I seem to be the only regular poster here that has that opinion. I personally happen to think that I am rather open minded on the whole thing (check my posts if you wish), I do not however wave the Sony flag of righteousness and belittle MS for everything that they do (take a good look at many of the threads and posts within them and tell me that there isnt a definite current of anti MS propaganda). I dont carry the same opinion of the capabilities of the PS3 that this board seems to support, nor do I consider MS to be without fault. Yet, at this site I am a troll, flamebait, etc Hell Mods even let another member state that I am an idiot in his signature; I think I realize that many here dont care for the opinion I voice, but I'll be damned if that is going to stop me from posting.

Danji I understand your view that a game in the next gen should look better than anything out previous to it. As far as the graphics, nearly every reviews praised the graphics so I cannot see as to how they are terrible. But you express interest in Unreal for the PS3 which is a PC port, many games in the next gen are going to be comparable to the PC (I think thats what Kojma was getting at, he isnt the only one to state something along these lines). I play a game for what it is worth, not some view of what next gen should be (I think that we all may be disappointed if we expect awe insipiring things from the PS3 and 360 this next gen, or at least their comparisons to the PC and to one another).

PS: Nod my fanboy statement was harsh and I do apologize, it was infact uncalled for.

Actually I am looking forward to Black (check above for more comments on FEAR).

I would have to disagree, while Chronicle of Riddick was a very good game the melee combat was no where near as refined as what you see in Condemned.

wounding isn't a fanboy. I wish more posters were like him- especially from the other sections.

there is no problem if many either agree or disagree with you. we are all here to discuss. to make questions and give answer as best as we can.

about popular games, you'll be surprised at some of the tasts out there. RPGamer doesn't like Prince of Persia! some say Mortal Kombat is a 3D fighter!
The_One doesn't like Killzone. and I love eating dried water.

live and let live. we are far from being the most sane bunch anyway:dur:

Mmmmmmm......Dried Water!



I just started playing Thief Deadly Shadows, I am a huge fan of the first Thief game and Riddick was a nice twist on FPS games, shanking mofos and all. I loved Manhunt, guess that makes me kinda twisted.


Twisted? Naw....you're just a gamer dude!

Thief DS is good but it seems to be missing what the first two had. DS was built for consoles and it shows. Don't get me wrong...it's still Thief, but I prefer 1 and 2 overall!

live and let live. we are far from being the most sane bunch anyway:dur:
:rave:

Being sane is highly overrated, like I've said before normal people are bring. Wounding and me have had a few arguments but yeah, he's no fanboy but he, like just about everyone, has his moments.

Theif DS? huh? they made theif for ds? Deadly Shadows aka Theif 3. I was talking about the pc version, I played 1 and 3, both awsome.

I never called Chaney a fanboy. Did I?...

Your right we are ALL entitled to opinion. It's what makes me want to talk on forums, it's one thing ppl seem to forget to hold on to, it's what makes us unique.

Why do you keep on saying most ppl here agree with you?

FEAR has a lot to do with it, it's an excellent FPS IMO unlike Condemned IMO.
Where's condemned strong story line, many characters on screen etc? Non repetitive combat?

You haven't given any reasons as to why condemned is a good game, or why it's Worse than FEAR which is only "okay" in your opinion.

Of course they praised the graphics, for a console game it's great and all but for a $400 "next gen" game it's not that impressive compared to high end pc's. And I know you got at this but $450 for condemned?... I dunno.

I also apologize for being childish with the whole Mod comment and Gasoline thing and cursing. I do get heated up... sorry.

You aren't an idiot you just disagree alot and sometimes it seems like you never want to be alongside the majority even when they are right that's all, give more reasons to your belief, back up what you say. I don't hate you for liking the game, shiz, I love games other ppl probably despise but I'd be happy to state WHY I like them, so please explain why you like condemned so I can better understand you.

I quoted Gamespot because you seem to trust all their opinions not because they are the holy grail of reviewers. I already stated I disagree with the way "Mainstream" review sites go.

Sorry everyone, especialy Chaney for getting out of hand.

Nod I didnt post specifics for liking the game but here they are,

good story line (not the best but definite room for advancement in sequels)

excellent direction to take fps

excellent use of melee combat

best overall atmosphere in a game (just edges out doom 3)(imo)

good/very good graphics (I have no idea what bar you guys set your graphical comparisons at)

excellent use of sound

excellent enemie AI

no comment on physics (didnt really stand out one way or the other)



Nod my opinion does often time differ from many on the board and at times I do get overly defensive (it is a PS3 board and often anyone w/ a pro MS view
needs to be a little defensive, even if he is pro Sony as well (nudge nudge wink wink). I thought that I do have a tendency to back up my views but since you pointed this out I will be more cautious in the future.

There is no need to apologize :thumbl: we can disagree all day and I as well have a tendency to get out of line also so no hard feelings man.

Sorry for the confusion, No there is no Thief for the DS. I was just abbreviated the name of the PC title Thief (DS= Deadly Shadows)

Uhhhh! I never said you did bro!?!:shrug:

I don't remember saying this? But If I did in another post I am sorry if you were offended!

As far as opinions go I agree with you, it just makes things interesting!



......Ok....is any of this even directed at me??? or just the top paragraph??


Anyway Peace!
