Condemned 2: Bloodshot picks up the story a few weeks (or months?) after the events of the first game. Given the game's cliffhanger ending, it wasn't surprising to hear that a sequel was under development almost immediately after it shipped. Thanks to the power of the Xbox 360, the game's visuals were stunning, managing to make dilapidated train stations and abandoned malls look eerily beautiful, while the atmosphere was downright disturbing (hats off to anyone who didn't get freaked out by the mannequins). Sure, it borrowed elements from just about every survival horror game ever made and its particular brand of first-person melee combat has been seen in a number of other titles, but there was just something different about this game. When it was released as an Xbox 360 launch title, Monolith and Sega's Condemned was lauded as a frightening, brutal new franchise unlike anything the gaming world had seen before.
