Re: Scary

Playing like that would be too freaky for me.

I started playing the level with the manequins and Just turned it off.

 

This is game is more Realistic scary than say zombie or monster scary because there could be crazy people like this. 


Character name T
Level 20 ForteFighter
Male Beast level 136

Re: Scary
omg the department store was the absolute worst!!! i freaked out when u gotta jump down the hole and the manequines start moving closer and watching u, then when u jump down they are all staring down at you, and later in the level u pass the same spot and they are all in their original places...ugh. then just how the ppl look like dummies and just walk off the platforms and showcases and attack you. i always played the game at night and it prob took a few years off of my life heh

I thought the orchard was very well done.  Very dark and had me on pins and needles the whole time.

Re: Scary
haha, my friend and I played this game over the course of 2 nights and recorded the entire thing on tape. chapter 5 was in that christmas department store right? we had all the lights out and had the surround sound cranked up.

I hated the part where you look at the mannequins in the display window, then all of a sudden they appear right next to you. there was this one part where I walked past a mannequin not thinking anything of it, then I heard something behind me, so I looked back and the mannequin was literally 3 inches from my face. we laughed so hard because we were truly scared sh*tless. Embarrassed [:$]

Re: Scary
I was on edge until somewhere in chapter 2 (maybe?) when I had to find a fire axe to get to the next area.  I spent over half an hour looking for that thing.  After that, the game lost all its scariness for me.  I played on through chapter 3, where the only scares I got were when I was moving through and someone started shooting. 

"Holy s-, he's got a gun!"

That's it.

Although, from some of the stuff I've read here, maybe I should try to pick it up again.  Who knows?
Help! I can't tell where I am. It's dark and I can hear laughing.

No.  I honestly don't know what anyone's talking about there.

You guys think it's scary now? Just wait til you get to the school. People who've beat the game or that level know what I'm talking about. Wink [;)]

Re: Scary
I'm at work right now working the graveyard shift and just got done playing Chapter 5 in the department store.I used our conference room to play on our projector so was forced to turn the lights out so I can see  the game on the wall. I didn't think a game could scare me like this. I started getting really paranoid thinking I heard noises in the back offices and being here alone, in the dark, made things so much worse.Even the mall music that can be heard faintly when walking outside of the stores started giving me goosebumps. I had to go to the audio settings and lower the music volume to 0. Then I turned my Zune on and listened to a podcast hoping it would help me get through the remainder of the level. They did a great job on making that level creepy.

the department store was terrible for me.
I had enough problems with mannequins before I played this game.

I have to day though I'm proud I got through the game.
Even if I only played when it was light out >.>

I look really good, like I just crawled out of a sewer.

Re: Scary
Yes, the department store was really scary. I played it the other night and mind you I have been sick the last few days, mainly stomach sickness. Well when I saw the maniquins surrounding me I yelped a little and squirted some diarrhea into my underwear. My heart was pounding and I was too scared to head to the bathroom to clean up. So i shut the xbox off and curled up on the couch and put my electric heater blanket over me and stayed there till I fell asleep. i woke up the next day with a bad rash.

Well, that was a little too much information for me, personally. But I do hope you feel better.

Re: Scary
Just bought this game today.  Has to be the scariest thing I have ever experienced in a game or film.  Never knowing when you're about to be jumped by some crazed psycho.  And I'm only at the metro station!

The use of sound to create atmosphere in this game is absolutely amazing.

Think I might have to play some Viva Pinata to calm myself down before I head to bed!

OK, I just ordered this off of eBay and I'm hoping it's as good as the 2nd one.  I got the 2nd one before playing the 1st...  I have no idea why.

Re: Scary
i highly sugest to the previous poster forget all about the 2nd game just think about condemned 1 as the second ruined alot of what made the first great.

it's quite freaky trust me. although you may not be intrested but you will feel very immersed by level 4 if you don;lt straight away i promise that.

I don't know man. This game is way scarier than the RE or Doom series. This has some real mindfreaks in it if you know what I mean. Not just startles, but really scary omfG moments.
Do you mean when you're walking then you don't know when you're going to be attacked until it's too late and a person starts attacking you from behind? That would make me jump and let out a bit of a "aaarrrggghhh" followed by a bit of cursing, and a rapid heart beat increase lol.
Both, and more... To say more would be to give too much away.


A example of the non-boh!-horror is pretty long in the game and you enter a trashy old play ground in the middle of the night, the scary low music and then you start to hear childrens laughter. From nowhere. In another place, won't tell you where, all of the sudden you fall 2 or 3 floors down. Almost a sheppards pie in my pants. :p

i recently started to like scary movies games and books. so how scary is it really? is it scarier than the movie IT? everyone said that was the scariest movie they ever saw and i didnt get scared at all. so im wondering if i should rent this or fear first?


The movie IT isn't scary at all in my oppinion. It's not even a movie, actually. It's a tv-mini serie and they are genrerally hard to make scary. This game is way more scary than IT (the movie/serie, at least). If you want a scary book, read Stephen Kings Pet sematary or Joe Hills Heart shaped box (just listened to that one in my ipod). Also check out the swedish author John Ajvide Lindqvist. His first book Låt den rätte komma in is avaible in english (Let the right one in) and have become a great swedish movie and Matt Reeves are making an american version.

This game is by far, scarier atmospherically than the 2nd one.  It's quite spooky and scary in the dark rooms.
