It's summer so I'm going through games pretty quick. Almost done with Prototype, finished Bad Company (still thoroughly enjoying the online), bored with Red Faction: Guerilla.
So anyways, I need a good singleplayer, story driven game.
What are your guy's thoughts on these games:
Silent Hill: Homecoming
F.E.A.R. 2
Assassin's Creed
I'm considering getting Condemned for 10 bucks at Gamestop. I played it years ago and absolutely loved it. Anyone find it a good game to play through again?
Thanks for the input guys!
EDIT: MUST BE FOR 360! I only have a Mac at my summer house.

If you've played FEAR 1 then FEAR 2 is a great pick.
Condemned is awesome in spite of subpar gameplay. (Make sure you get the 360 version.)
Condemned 2 improves the gameplay while the story is a massive wallbanger.
Would also recommend picking up Unreal Tournament 2K4 for Out of Hell, if that thing ever actually fucking comes out.

What's wrong with the PC version?

The 360 version is actually the only version I could play...I edited my original post now.
I played the FEAR 2 demo and wasn't impressed really...but I know there's a great game there because the first one was just so tight.
Is Condemned worth playing through again? Like even if you know what's coming. I struggled to make it through the second one twice so I traded it in.

Yes. Condemned not one of those games that you necessarily play for the story.
Anyway, I recommend that you play Rainbow Six: Vegas 1 for the superior Single Player campaign and Vegas 2 for the MP. See my post in your (

Eva, I played the demo for Rainbow Six Vegas 1 and with your recommendation, will definitely be picking it up. Thanks!
I guess in addition I want another story-driven game. Even if the controls or graphics are sub-par, I want something that'll keep me coming back for the story.

Well the story and narrative delivery of Condemned 1 are compelling enough. But the visceral gameplay, atmosphere instilled in the presentation and level design are the main draws of Condemned.

Deus Ex
Bloodlines
[Edit]Oh wait you want a STORY driven game, my bad.
Try one of these Final Fantasies, I hear they're quite story... driven.
