Condemned 2: Bloodshot


-HP-

Recommended Posts

Its coming out next week here, but I really loved most of the first game, an absolutely amazing launch title in my opinion. The things that felt kinda rushed and maybe not totally thought through seem to have been fixed in this one (The investigative portion of the game at least), so thats cool.

I hope its less supernatural and more "real"/explainable things going on in this game than in the first one, thats one part that really turned me off.

SPOT. FUCKING. ON.

I so totally agree with him. I'm absolutely disgusted with how they've fucked up C2, and totally missed most of the things that the first game did great (Yahtzee's example with the serial killer in the house is exactly what I'm talking about).

So sad that they went the supernatural route and officially put the final nail in the coffin.

I never actually played the first one, But Ive been meaning to pick it up, it looked cool, and all my friends said it was great. But the Demo for C2 was a dissappointment. It looked great and all, but like people have said its abit supernatural, which ruined it for me, I Thought the original was cool because you fought addicts and other PEOPLE, not (C2 demo related spoiler / generic enemy type)

Evil Black Oil/Goo/tar things that jump out of the walls and attack you

So I probably wont pick it up, unless the price drops.

I played through and finished it a couple days ago. You certainly fight thugs and addicts more often than the super natural creatures but it does suck they showed up at all. The demo isn't the best indication of that, because it's split about 50/50 with the enemy types but I'd say just pick up the first if you can find it. It's a better game overall. C2 really only offers better combat mechanics and a better investigation mode (which is quite cool). The rest, save for a few early levels that feel like the first game, it kinda let me down.
