Condemned 2 players suffering on both platforms

Unfortunately I am not talking about “suffering” the frightening gameplay here.  It seems that Sega’s highly anticipated horror title, Condemned 2 has been experiencing a few technical issues, for both the Xbox 360 and PS3.
Firstly reports had been coming in, from various forums and gaming sites, that the Xbox 360 version was erasing save files for […]

Review: Condemned 2: Bloodshot

Similar to Graham’s schoolgirl-like excitement over Viking: Battle for Asgard, Condemned 2: Bloodshot has been at the top of my most-wanted list since I wet my pants while playing Criminal Origins.
It was so damn scary, so frightening that I had trouble playing it in a darkened room. Oftentimes, I’d have to put down the controller […]

Oi! Watch out for that door

[gametrailers 31621]
Sega and Monolith have promised us that Condemned 2: Bloodshot is going to be much more violent than its predecessor. We’ve seen enough gameplay footage to believe them, but we just absolutely love the game’s new finishing moves.
Instead of selecting a lame ol’ finishing move with the d-pad like in Condemned: Criminal Origins, you’ll […]

Gasp! Condemned 2 gets a commercial

[youtube tneJLN4LTbs]
So here I am watching the latest episode of TNA wrestling when the show went to commercial, and I was shocked to see this commercial for Condemned 2: Bloodshot. I’m not shitting you, Sega’s actually fronting the money to market a video game it’s publishing!
Admittedly, this is a pretty cool commercial, and we see […]

Ethan Thomas has a manly voice

[gametrailers 31381]
It’s unfortunate that Greg Gunberg from Heroes fame isn’t reprising his role as Ethan Thomas. But after watching this newly released Condemned 2 voice over trailer, I think it’s safe to say veteran voice actor Andre Sogliuzzo does a pretty good job.
Actually, Sogliuzzo has worked on several Sega titles like Yakuza and Armored Core […]

Unfortunately, there’s not a date listed for when we should expect the demo to hit the Xbox Live Marketplace, but we expect to see it really soon considering […]
