Gamer 2.0: Condemned 2: Bloodshot Review

Gamer 2.0 writes: "SEGA's sequel kicks off by characterising Ethan Thomas, the series' main face. Ethan, quite an endearing, neutral fellow originally, has been transformed into some sort of "badass" anti-hero who doesn't take any crap in Condemned II. It's a horrid cliché and as such you don't feel remorse when he inevitably dies in combat – an area we'll address later when analysing the game's fighting system.

Ethan is an alcoholic who spends the bulk of his time in the gutter. He begins witnessing supernatural hallucinations similar to those that drove him to the bottle. For the sake of the plot, your ex-Serial Crimes Unit shows up. Fast forward a few minutes, and Ethan's right back on the case, still pissed, and willing to serve the company he unceremoniously vanished from 11 months ago. And so goes the story of Condemned II – a hodgepodge of excuses for killing scores of scary-looking enemies."
