Condemned 2 is a nice game, agreed, but inferior to part 1 in terms of story and suspense I think. It´s nowhere near as scary as part 1.

The new battlesystem is quite enjoyable though, but sadly takes away a lot of the threat I felt in the first one. Ethan is a killing machine this time...oh and FPS-Mode is just ridiculously easy.


Another thing is the dramatic increase in available firearms this time...almost 3 whole levels consist of mostly firefights, which is a bit strange for a game like that I think.
The unlockables are a mixed bag...most are great, one is crap and the last one is...well just for the last level, since you cannot play through, say, level 2 with the unlockable from level 6. I really don´t like that and I´d say it´s a design-mistake.


All in all I would say it´s a decent game, plays better than the first one, but lacks in the Athmosphere-department. Oh and the ending sucked.
