Hands on: Condemned 2 demo is short and sweet
I’ve finally downloaded and played the Condemned 2: Bloodshot demo from PSN. I also queued up the Turok demo since I’ve never tried it either. By the time I’ve blown through the Condemned 2 demo, the Turok download was still stuck at 37% and it was already growing dark.
I guess that meant people were starting to wake up on the other side of the world and PSN has just gotten a little more crowded. Well, there’s always continuing it next day.
The Condemned 2 demo is visually sick in a good way. The city is appropriately dark, the environments look decrepit, …read more
Weird: Yahtzee gives semi-positive review for Condemned 2
As far as I was concerned, my game purchases for the year have already been determined. At least until I heard what British-born writer Ben “Yahtzee” Croshaw had to say about Condemned 2: Bloodshot, that nasty first-person brawler/shooter that requires a change of diapers to play.
Watch the Condemned 2 video review
Are you too lazy to read the numerous analyses for Condemned 2: Bloodshot? Then watch GameTrailer’s video review.

Interestingly, there’s a change of lead voice actor in the sequel. The Ethan Thomas in the first game was voiced by Greg Grunberg, who’s also known as Matt Parkman in Heroes. Condemned 2, on the other hand, is taking on an …read more
Condemned 2 video looks worse for wear in a good way
I’m looking forward to Condemned 2 because the original was awesome. It’s not exactly a “shooter” in a strict sense because getting and using guns isn’t exactly as easy as picking it up like in other FPSes. Condemned was more about the melee and the atmosphere. Its mood was sheer perfection.
What is the sequel like? More of the same, and hopefully even some more. Enjoy the crimson splatters.
I can’t say I enjoyed the voice acting for Ethan Thomas. Quite distracting, really. I just hope I won’t hear much from him while playing the game.
