"Condemned 2 is looking like a fantastic looking game which, as you can see from the screenshots, doesn?t pull any punches when it comes to trying to creep out players. This is definitely a game for adult audiences only and the game is stuffed to the brim with filthy insults, blood and brutal, unrestrained fisticuffs.
However, it?s also got a cleverly delivered story in there too, both on a character-based and plot-based level. In terms of the series storyline Condemned 2 will see a whole lot of the mystery cleared up and Ethan will start to piece together the fragments and figure out what is happening to the world around him. Meanwhile, players will get deeply involved in Ethan?s personal struggles and see him battle against the loss of his sanity and come to terms with his alcoholism.
Certain additions to the gamestyle don?t sit too well with us ? such as how the HUD will exclaim your combos, ruining the sense of immersion and horror, but there?s still a lot to like about the game. Just looking at some of those screenshots is scary enough and the game is definitely one of the gutsiest thrillers we?ve ever played ? just sitting through the opening cutscene is like having scorpions crawling up your legs! Clearly horror and thriller fans are going to have at least one game to look forward to this year."
