I would recommend against using headlines like this. A lot of people just read the headline, and assume its fact, never checking the body of the story.

Out of couriosity from those that played both, which melee combat is more brutal/visceral: Riddick or Condemned?

I ask because Riddick's combat was hands-down the best I've seen in any game, and was hoping that Monolith played it and took it to heart.

Maarten, the subject line, "Monolith Condemning PC's" made my heart sink when I saw it. Seriously, I understand the cuteness of putting together funny titles, but that was just uncalled for. That title seriously misrepresents the article.

Well. I will give FEAR its props. Looks like its a great game. But like the original poster, SP FPS games, just dont hold my attention longer than 2 hours. Even as great as Half-Life 2 seemed i just never could play longer than 4 hours total. Just not my thing. Condemned on the other hand is a completely different experience.
