Condemned for the detective gameplay, The Darkness for the story and comic book style

Both Condemned games and both Darkness games are great.

Condemned 1 can be played at 4K120 and it even had a widescreen UI mod and AI enhanced textures mod. It's absolutely playable. Condemned 2 is stuck on consoles, but can be emulated at higher resolutons and unlocked fps nowadays, like 120 fps.

Darkness 1 is stuck on consoles. It can be played at 60 fps on RPCS3, but resolution scaling isn't possible. It would benefit more from a remaster.

Condemned.

Condemned 2 in particular, was batshit crazy. I loved that game.

I was going to say neither, but I like this answer:

Condemned 2 because it was never released on PC/Steam, strangely enough.

Condemned and it's not close.

Condemned 1 could use a remake

Condemned 2 doesn't need a remake it just needs a PC port

I don't remember much about the darkness 1. Other than some fella called Jackie(?) chatting absolute shite about his-a momma's a spicy meatballs, or concrete shoes during the loading screens.

Condemned 1 & 2 - very cool games

Condemned for sure. I played through both of those games twice on the 360 and really enjoyed the atmosphere. I think it was Yahtzee who said something like "You can feel that this game hates you" - Perfect encapsulation.

I thought The Darkness was forgettable aside from Mike Paton's voice work (which was fantastic).

Both series. But Condemned 2 really hit the spot for me, I'm not sure exactly why but I loved the weirdness of that game and how brutal it was.

A real rollercoaster. The Darkness was incredible too, Condemned 1 didn't click as much.

If I had to choose, Condemned 2.

Condemned especially the first game.
It has the only in game jumpscare that worked on me.
I loved the brutality and intensity of the fights.
The second game was good but had too much guns.

the only thing I remember from the darkness games is that it was violent and somewhat cartoonish.

Condemned with 2025 graphics would be nuts!
