Condemned 2: Bloodshot Review (Warning Parental Advisory)

[eXe]

Alright...first im going to start out by saying, its scary as shit. If anyone played the first one on 360, its about 95% more freaky and f*cked up. I cant even play it in the dark, I almost shit myself about 10 times. Im not quite done the campaign but its some what long, probly about 10 levels. After completing a mission on Silver you get new shit. The first three levels of me completing it on Silver I got...a Flak Jacket, a Stun Gun, Sneak Boots (so I can walk silently)...and I forget the first one...if you complete it on Gold I think you get pretty cool stuff also, but im not sure if it differs from Silver or Gold. I got Gold on one level and I got a holster for a gun, so now If I find any sort of gun I can holster it and carry around something in my hand, which can be anything. Im doing it on Hard difficulty and its really hard. Multiplayer is fun, but its not something youd get just to play multiplayer, but it has its fun moments. The one thing I didnt like about it is you cant jump and crouch, atleast to my knowledge. But, the interaction in the game is so linear and complex. They really spent a lot of time working out all the interactions and stuff you can do. For example, you can mess with a TV attena to get reception, a radio attena, etc. You can even pick the responses you say to someone that is talking to you, I liked that. If anyone played the first one, the Evidence Interactions are about 10x better. Bullet wounds, blood, everything is incredible. They went all out in the evidence sequences. Blood splatters, all kinds of crazy shit.

Gameplay: 9.0
Fun: 10.0
Controls: 9.0
Options Menu: 8.5 (wish you could make the blood more gorey; but I really think it doesnt need it, im just a sick person. But you can turn up the brightness)
Overall: 9.5


Great fun game. Im pretty addicted to it as of right now. The only other thing I didnt like is most of the achievements are online, and thats a bit frustrating to me. But I think I can work it out . I dont know what else to add in...im sure im forgetting so much, if I figure out some more ill be sure to add more into it. Let me know who has this game and your thoughts

Alright lemme try and do this....theres a thing called the Oro which is trying to take control of peoples minds to make them more violent. The Oro is responsible for maybe some if not most of whats wrong with the city. Dorland, the *** cop guy, was one of the leaders at the time. And besically everyone in SCU was apart of his command. While Vanhorn, (SKXs uncle) was on your side yet protecting SKX because hes his nephew. SKX killed his uncle because he was "corrupted" along with the Mayor for the same reason. They too were apart of the Oro, because they have "special" vocal cords, which trained would give them the ability you had at the end of the game to do that shouting thing to blow peoples heads off. Dont really know what else to say.....

i played the demo on the ps3 i didnt get very far when i turned it off it got stupid, i hate games that are too dark and you can barely see whats going on, sure you can turn up the brightness but that defeats the whole purpose of the game, reminds me of a cross between the darkness and jericho. i personally wouldnt even rent it.

^ the darkness was a badass game. Its supposed to be suspenseful and dark lol
