I see nothing funny about this game but agree that Illbleed was quite
hilariously weird at times. I know the teams are almost definitely
different, but the overall quality of FEAR will judge whether I'll likely to
be buying this Condemned game. To be honest, it looks like another
potentially great FPS. I have no idea why you've dismissed it so quickly.
Let me guess, you're bored of FPS? The run and gun methods prove tedious?
Well, I just read the article, and it sounds like those are almost the last
thing planned for this. It's all about atmosphere, and taking it slow. Even
if the article is eventually proven wrong, I'm sure my undersized brain will
still find enjoyment in this, right Ted?

I'm sorry Ted, I love you really. You're my favourite.
