Bloodshot reviews are in: good and creepy

by Richard Mitchell { Mar 12th 2008 at 4:00PM }

Lest you haven't heard, the sequel to the Xbox 360's scariest launch title launched this week. We are, of course, talking about Condemned 2: Bloodshot (although Perfect Dark was pretty scary in a completely different way). For those who have been on the fence about the title, worry no more, as the reviews are in and it looks like Bloodshot delivers just the survival horror fix we've been waiting for. Joystiq has compiled some of the reviews in a handy metareview, and all of them deem Bloodshot to be a bloody good time. In particular, the revamped combat and forensics systems seem to be a welcome addition. And don't forget the creepiness. Oh the creepiness. Head on over to Joystiq to see if another trip into Ethan Thomas' head is right for you.

I saw the achievements and they suck. I can't stand online multiplayer achievements! It just goes to show that Monolith spent more time on the multiplayer than it was worth. I also hear the single-player game is short. I don't think this one is a must buy game, especially after that abomination Monolith created known as F.E.A.R. And that one got good scores too!

Wha?! This game is going to be amazing and is getting pretty solid reviews. A must buy for me!

It was off my radar until I saw the reviews. My local shop hasn't gotten it yet but while i was there I picked up the first Condemned for $10. I never played it but so far it's pretty cool. I just hope it doesn't get too repetitive. Walk a little, left trigger, right trigger, right trigger, walk some more.
