I really liked the demo. The only demo i've really played more than once, lol. I guess that really is a small percentage of the game though.

ok here goes.
i didn't like the camera effects to intro the hallucinations, i thought it was overdone, made certain parts hard to explore.
some of the voice work was spot on hillarious
i have said multiple times that few games do atmosphere like the condemned series, no other game ( maybe f.e.a.r. ) had me checking every corner like some kind of paranoid obsessive complusive
come on how many games give you the chance to had out some justice with a bowling ball, shovel, baseball bat, prosthetic arm, or a flat out brick?
graphics were good, not gears of war but still good.
the forensics bits have been extended this time but i still feel it wasn't enough.
there is a sense of realism that i like in my games. i actually felt guilty for a while when i took a shotgun to a crackhead, and he crumbled to the floor with a sad little whimper.
the little chain attack deal is a cute little gimmick. i found myself looking forward to unleashing some bad intentions on baddies wandering by them selves.

all together i would give it a strong 8.5 out of ten. worth at least a rent if your a fan of the first game.

I love this game. I just rented it the other day and im having so much fun with it. I wait till i put my daughter to bed to get a hour or two of play time and man, it is kinda freaky. Definitly the kind of game you play in the dark. My pain in the ass fiance likes to sneak up on me while im playing it and unleash one of those....."BAHH!" lol i screamed like a little school girl.

I've only played the demo once, and man it was so hard. Its probably that i'm crud at gaming, but i found it hard. I liked numero uno, but as for this one, i dunno if i'll be getting it

Loved the first one so was well keen to see this on the shelf last week. I quickly snapped it up and have been playing it on and off since. Definitley the game to play with the lights off and the sound up on your amp. You can adjust the games brightness too so you can actually see where to go in the really dark sections. I love the graphics and moody atmos, and the sound of each weapon smashing against skull is more than satisfying. There are bits which will make you leave your skin as sometimes you see a shadow of someone dash past in the distance, there's been times I thought they were in my own room so continued playing with the light on for a bit.

No-one mentioned the online aspect either. So let me enlighten you a little bit. Basically you can select the type of skirmish you want but for me it was all about jumping straight into the madness. It's actually feckin hilarious running after some one else with a 4x2 with nails only for them to turn around and launch a brick at your head before punching the face off you while you try n find a bigger tool to hammer em to pieces with. I couldnt play the first few games for laughing so much but then i got serious and had a ball...This game is amazing...and for the record, it's meant to be hard. imagine you could simply just beat the shit out of anyone you wanted in real life!! ..........yeah right!!

I NEVER played the first installment of 'Condemend' to be fair so i have no clue what the gameplay was like. But i brought 'Condemend 2' out of curosity, and the first time i played it in my room, it was of a night, and it gave me the creeps the first time round.
You just have no idea what's around the corner. all you can hear are weird shuffling noises like furniture is being moved about, and footsteps on the levels above you.
It's more psychology creepy then actually visually gory.

right so how can i sum this up in less than 5 words i know 'IT'S SHIT INDUCINGLY SCARY' i swear to god when i was round my cousins house we were playing the demo at mid-night with all the lights out and beleive me my cousin looked as if he was about to crap himself---- well either that or his game freak side was starting to show and he was concentrating really hard but he looked almost CONSTEPATED!!!

anyway i think when your on the top of that building then everything just goes green and all those tar monsters fall from the sky it is scary.
that part does however(skipping off topic for a second) of oblivion as when you reach kvatch where the city is under seige by daederic creatures the sky turns cloudy and then red

and first time i played on it considering my charachter was shit and i only just started i jumped off a cliff by mistake which was incredibly dumb as i hadnt saved since i left the imperial sewers
