The Story of Condemned: Criminal Origins

Note; This is a re-upload, due to age restrictions being placed on the original video. Also note that a fair bit will have been blurred out of this video in order to appease KZbin's AI, so i'm sorry about that! Anyway, enjoy the re-upload and thanks for your support!

Second times's the charm hopefully.

I’ll give it plenty of rewatches for you. It’s a really good video.

[@Shrine0112]

bro these are awesome, ive listened to most of your vids while working please continue!!

[@annegrey6447]

I thought I’d seen this b4, but kept watching cuz the story & the way u discuss things is interesting. My fav analysis though is still Outlast. U got me interested in the games & I can’t wait for The Outlast Trials.

[@ΕυαγγελοςΠαπαθεοδωρου]

The biggest joke here is that the police would conduct a man hunt for policeman alledgedly killing another policeman and not jovially call him on the phone and ask him to come down to the precinct to solve the problem.

[@mr.ddhemmalshehri5611]

@@sexpistols2743 yea, but as mentioned MULTIPLE times in the game, they don't plan on giving him a fair chance. They already decided amongst themselves he's the killer. U can even hear his superior during the call u time stamped say something along the lines of "everyone has bad days" or something. They didn't call him because they wanted to do things in a civilised way, they called him because the manhunt failed miserably.

I’m still not over this era being considered retro. I was the Xbox 360 era. I’m officially old 😭😭😭

Thanks man!

[@ricthiamevans8980]

Agreed. It really is.

[@mauriceandrewsjr5929]

This game had an amazing idea. Blending crime scene forensics with a gritty world, combat and gripping story. I wished the series continued in this direction. So unique. Great video my dude!

[@brandonfrye2000]

I remember hearing rumors back in the day this got banned somewhere for being so scary it gave someone a heart attack

[@sophiaisabelle027]

We appreciate the amount of effort and hard work you’ve invested into all of your videos. Keep up the good work.

[@FurbyParade226]

All I remember about this game is the moving mannequins when you turn around & that damn swimming pool gauntlet that killed me like 20 times in a row.

[@andrazskusek4604]

I would absolutely love to see the game called The long dark. It is about surviving after some really strange natural phenomenoms started affecting weather, electricity, wildlife etc. Its an amazing game with an incredibly rich and intresting story, although it might be best to wait for the release of the final 5th episode

[@Instig4t0r86]

Remember playing this at 2am in the morning after the 360 launch. Memories

[@alkhoaja]

The mannequin level was just so scary

[@cerboris521]

I never play horror games. Doesn't interest me at all. But you sir, with your particular style makes me enjoy these stories. Thanks mate. Keep it up.

[@gibby3767]

Same i dont like plying them, except deadspace remake, but theres so many good stories i woulda missed out on without this guy

[@LadyCeag840]

This Retro Vault special is a great idea, Harry!

[@LePreuxBuisson]

So I've watched a few videos on this, it's been covered to death. Still, I flocked to yours in a heartbeat when I saw it. That's how good your content is. Love it.

[@for_barze]

I have been taking a long break from the internet, it's time to binge watch all of your videos

[@apple8464]

Can’t wait for the next video! This story was quite a cliffhanger

[@tavius88]

Man that department store mission is still the scariest thing I’ve played til this day

[@clipssnx1147]

This game had a unique approach of survival horror instead of you being equipped with a gun like resident evil and shooting down a bunch of drug addicts in each chapter instead you’re only equipped with a lead pipe or sledgehammer and a flashlight and nothing but silence and darkness surrounding you and you wondering when will someone attack you

[@masonbeuhring7356]

Still waiting for Condemned 2!!! Love what you do!

[@alkhoaja]

Wished it was backwards compatible on Xbox series X, or at least a Condemned 3, or a remaster of Condemned Criminal Origins.

[@The_Schuhs]

Awesome video about an awesome game. I used to get panic attacks playing this game as a kid because I thought it was so scary!

[@dylangutierrez7482]

One of the best games I’ve ever played, the second one was amazing as well

Honestly quite liked this. And would certainly love to see the sequel and you going more in depth with everything like you usually do with other videos. Also would like to see an episode based on Psi-Ops.

[@ZelioGames]

The intro is so sick. I'm already in love with this new series.

[@SlobMobGaming]

[@-Panna-]

Actually just came back to watch this video again, and saw that it was the reupload instead. It sucks you had to do that, but I still love the video. I'm looking forward to seeing what else you cover in this series, including Condemned 2. :) Keep up the great work!

[@mehhh8888]

Loving this. Great video and idea for a series. I am looking forward to future videos!!!

[@jamallayne436]

Awesome video and great new series idea. I hope you cover more classics like F.E.A.R

[@cradleofgoth]

My biggest question concerning the plot: why does Ethan have to save the torturer? It's glossed over in the plot as if it's completely logical. And why did Leyland want to kill Ethan? Nothing makes sense.

[@Fat_Cow0_0]

He wants to save the torturer because as an fbi agent, murder is never okay. He is trying to stop a killing from happening which is his job. Leyland wants to kill him because he has no purpose for Thomas anymore. He has been removed from the fbi so he is useless now and knows his identity so he would rather him be dead.

[@mr.freaks1456]

Still wating for the second part❤

[@chemicalbeef3128]

I've played a ton of "scary" games in my life, and this is the only one that made me look over my shoulder in real life while playing it.

[@Mrwilliam22120]

I can't wait for the sequel video. I love Condemned 2

[@tiersredlist1511]

I never played these games but man I wish I did when I was younger, I can’t wait to hear about Bloodshot!

[@ProjectPossum]

I really like this Retro Vault, you should consider doing the Darkness and Darkness 2!

[@geodude03]

Hi Harry, love your channel! I would recommend Buddy Simulator 1984 on steam for your story explained series, sounds deceiving, but trust me, it's worth a shot

[@betteryou7hanme]

love this series. the bear encounter in 'bloodshot' is legendary. looking forward to the next chapter.

[@BlackadderSA]

I will never ever forget being hyped for this game and reading the first review in a magazine while in Economics class. The review started off explaining how this game made a 40 year old literally shit himself while playing. From then on I knew I needed to play it. And boy was it awesome, me and a friend at the time that thoroughly enjoyed replaying this game even made a funny nickname for the final boss. What a classic, and definitely an all time high ranked horror for me to this day. This 2nd was good too, but nothing can top Criminal Origins!

[@tazzidoe7083]

[@winteryuki_onna8172]

I'm confuse, like why are the police in this universe so dumb? They believe that the main character kill his allies in a police shoot out, even though there are finger prints evidence which show that Ethan didn't kill and the mysterious man wasn't wearing gloves while holding the gun

[@ChrirTFM]

I think I pissed myself twice while playing this game. Love it!

[@SmallWrld]

I replayed this title back in 2021 underrated video game an I feel it needs a remaster or reboot

[@davidepannone6021]

If there ever was a game worth of a remaster, this is it. Imagine this game with nowadays graphics and VR support. Shit would be terrifying to play. We never mention the second. The second doesn't exist. I wish they kept it as a mental issue instead of going the paranormal route.

[@thescentprofiler5539]

Listen I remember reading online somewhere that it's best to play this game with all the lights off and that did kinda add to the immersion because there were some parts that scared the crap outta me.

Having to reupload sucks. Keep at it man.

[@vertigo9507]

Might I suggest looking into "In sound mind" very underrated game imo.

[@antxxa_]

Great video!

[@diodebridge]

I recently played the game for the first time knowing nothing about it going into it. I think it has a lot of really good ideas but doesn't expand on them too much. For example, the combat. On its own, the combat is great & is much more in depth than most horror games. However, especially in more confined areas, every fight feels pretty much the same. I wish the weapons you used had more variation, changing the way you fought. aside from the guns of course, which are few & far between with generally limited ammo. The story is solid enough but a lot of it feels "strung together" & tries to be too vague, giving you essentially useless information. Up until the end of the game you don't really even know anything outside of "find the guy who framed you & possibly killed other people." The hallucinations are also just not explained at all until the very end. The "investigation" tools are alright, but again, feel they could've done more with them, like allowing you to choose which tool to use with hints given to you instead of just pressing a key when the prompt tells you to. Overall, I'd say this was a 6/10 game. Despite my criticisms, the core concepts are interesting enough that despite being repetitive it's still generally a good time. Worth playing if you're a horror fan & you aren't bothered by some outdated looking graphics.

[@lonniesnyder1794]

Harry did you ever upload the second game? 😭 I can’t find it

[@martinvegas1327]

Remastered in VR would be good👍

[@ricthiamevans8980]

I thought the first uploaded was perfectly edited. Dang youtube. It's going to be almost impossible to do any gaming content at this rate.

Retro vault? Like the name. Nothing tops "Lore and Order" tho
