Fuck that shit. Scariest thing ever.

Bioshock did something similar too and it freaked the fuck out of me.

I replayed that game last week.

It's one of the most unsettling fucking set pieces in a horror game I've played. I love that game.

Condemned was one of the few horror games that actually terrified me properly. Think it was the lack of a supernatural element. The opening where your investigating the first crime and the power cuts is legit freaky.

That's the one where they're following you offscreen and it flashes when they move right?

Geat gameplay and atmosphere but... AWFUL storyline.

Bizarrely Pyrocynical (who I don't normally like) did an amazing video on it.

He did a great video on Cube and Hunt Down the Freeman too

That whole level was just unnerving as hell, even more than the medical one

why get sarcastic, if you knew they weren't mannequins, why point out that they bleed as if it's strange

Remember Comdemned 2?

Where you go from fat potato man to muscular bearded hobo

And your fat middle aged sidekick becomes smoking hot for no reason?

And the entire game is shit.

Even it's own developers walked back on it and said they wanted to ignore it for the next sequel and have it follow on from the original.

Which then never got made because 2 was so bad

The Condemned games are definitely those "Fuck this shit I'm out" tier games.
When that guy says "YOU WON'T MAKE IT!" he's not lying, fuck that fucking bear

There's a gang of them that stalks you if you go into the right room.

I didn't think 2 was that bad. I mean, it went from being a horror game to straight ridiculous, but the combat in it was fun. Just a wild departure, I think.

Each time you turn around they've moved in a little closer. Until the surprise...

IIRC, the inebriation angle is an important motivator that drives Ethan to either avoid or confront his demons.
