All the forensic tools, blunt instruments and brute force at his disposal are no match for his broken spirit. But soon he discovers his inner demons are the least of his worries. Thrust into a world filled with shadow, Ethan confronts creatures too grisly to imagine.Filled with neck-snapping battles and grotesque imagery, Condemned 2: Bloodshot is not for the weak-stomached. Encounter disgusting but clever enemies who are devious enough to trap you, but befriend them and they might defend you. When you do fight, execute vicious combo attacks, brawl in bare-fisted combat and follow up with devastating finishing moves. Pick up offbeat yet useful weapons to smash baddies, such as mannequin arms, toilet seats and other strange items. You can also use an arsenal of projectile-based firepower, such as the sub-gun, crossbow and .45 caliber pistol.59.99

I never played the original game, but I heard some good things about this one. I blasted through it in 2 days; about 8 hours. This was a bit dissapointing, but was something a somewhat expected given the genre. The graphics are quite awesome. Probably the best on any modern survival/horror game. The story is okay, but nothing that will make you think about it after playing. The hand-to-hand combat is the best of any game in this genre. And the investigative gameplay scenes are fun and difficult (which makes them fun). I would recommend this game to those that want a quick, frightening spurt of action.
What's great about it: Great graphics, Good Hand-to-Hand combat, Will scare some
What's not so great: Short playtime, Boring multiplayer
