Wikipedia is not a strategy guide or instruction manual. Wikipedia articles should focus on the games themselves, not on how to play them; they should not contain tips, tricks, or cheat codes. That information is available elsewhere (such as on our sister project, Wikibooks), in printed guides and online, and does not belong in an encyclopedia entry. Please do not add your own hints or opinions of the game. Verifiable content about the history, design, and overall description of the game is welcome. If you have questions about whether specific information should be added, ask here first.

Artwork

Where is it from? That looks like a baddie from the first game. --Elven6 02:58, 12 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

There are called DT'S... the shakes... He has to have a drink to keep his body for getting these delirium tremens. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.236.138.53 (talk) 02:53, 19 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

using unreal engine 3?

Nothing in that link specifically states that its using the UE3 engine. Monolith have always developed their own engines for their games and this should be no exception.TREX6662k5 18:07, 21 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The first Condemned used what is essentially the FEAR engine. This game is probably no different. --Magus05 ^(talk) 00:59, 18 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Greg Grunberg

The Wiki article claims that Greg Grunberg will not be returning for Condemned 2, however I found no evidence of that in the article attached.

This is how the IGN article touched the subject, and nowhere does this say Grunberg is not returning.

"IGN: Will Greg Grunberg be reprising his role as Ethan or is Heroes such a huge show now that Officer Parkman is unavailable for comment?

Dave Hasle, Producer: Actually Greg Grunberg was interested in working with us on Condemned 2: Bloodshot. We were very happy with the voice-work he performed for us and it's kind of cool to say we "knew him when." We've taken a darker turn with Ethan and wanted to find a voice that better represented that "edgy darkness.""

They dont say he isnt doing it, but they suggest they're looking for something different, shouldn't we leave this out of the Wiki until we are certain of who the replacement is? Kenshi_Ryden 18:07, 20 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, Greg Grunberg wont be coming back, they said on www.condemnedgame.com —Preceding unsigned comment added by 142.161.233.135 (talk) 01:29, 1 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Violence

i read that they already reduced the violence for this game to avoid that it wouldnt be published from microsoft or sony, they removed the ability to stuck someone's head in a bench vise for example. sorry i dont have a source now, does anyone know more? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.139.104.109 (talk) 15:28, 9 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I haven't seen any news about this - but I doubt that's true, and if it is - they took out stuff much worse than what you mentioned. Their are supposedly some pretty gruesome finishers in the game - such as throwing an enemy into a wood chipper - although there isn't a source for that. --Magus05 ^(talk) 10:34, 17 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

PC version

Any news of a PC version? Though I imagine since the original got ported (and feels at home, at that!) I don't doubt the sequel eventually will too. After all, Monolith have traditionally been a PC developer anyway, they wouldn't leave us in the lurch. 72.49.117.53 (talk) 06:28, 17 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It would probably happen. As of now though there's no info about it. They would probably not keep us hanging though. (I'm getting a 360, just in case, hehe) --Jojje (talk) 19:07, 25 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

They better fucking do it, this is one of the only games I would actually buy just because #1 was so absolutely amazing that I would spend that much to get this. Man, I was so excited, then it was like "only for PS3 and xbox lol!!" and I'm like "FUCK YOU MENG" and that's my story. Vael Victus (talk) 17:38, 27 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Lock the page for vandalism?

Condemned 2: Bloodshot (titled Condemned 2 in Australia/Europe) is an upcoming video game being developed by Monolith Productions and published by Sega for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 but not for PC because Sega and Monolith dont care about their fans and are backstabbing assholes who dont give a shit about their community and only wants money...FFS boycott both companies...god damnit they dont even care for their fans anymore and the PC community...fuck em.

I wasn't sure if I should just take it out, or request to have to page locked to prevent further vandalism... Ph15h (talk) 16:46, 4 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I say lock the page. The game is coming out, and will probably generate some interest. No point in having retards vandalize the page, if the idiot used some common sense he would have seen the original Condemned came out on PC 4 months after the Xbox 360 release, i doubt Monolith and Sega will ditch the PC, seeing as how most Monolith games are PC and Console releases, 13 of their 18 games are for PC/Mac OSX only. Davek92 (talk) 20:44, 4 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Damn, he could've at least made it funny.... As a vandal, I say that if you don't have anything funny to say, then don't vandalize at all. Anyway, I wouldn't say lock the page just because of one retard. If vandals come pouring through the floodgates, THEN consider it. 76.228.118.30 (talk) 21:42, 12

when he drinks he WILL be able to have a steady aim?

uh, how does that work?24.34.199.86 (talk) 04:10, 15 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Well, he's an alcoholic and without a drink his hands will flatter and he will be nervous. The symptomps of a strong Alcoholism/alcohol addiction. So when he drinks, he will be less nervous and his hands will be normal and he can aim steady -- 89.196.246.187 (talk) 22:56, 15 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

in reality though it's supposed to be the other way around. Paulalex19 (talk) 17:18, 23 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Unlockables?

Do we really need to have "unlockables" in this article? Seems pointless, takes up too much space and I have yet to see any other wikipedia game article do this.Damien Russell (talk) 23:51, 27 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

We can discuss that there are unlockables for finishing levels with a certain percent complete, but listing them out is clearly game guide material. I've removed that section. --MASEM 00:37, 28 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Bugs

Should we add something about the audio sync issues that users are reporting on boards all over the net? Along with the save not found glitch, Sega seems to be good with those. --Elven6 (talk) 18:40, 30 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Mentioning of the bear?

Just wondering if that killer bear on the game, should be worth mentioning or not? Captain Drake Van Hellsing Savvy? 00:04, 17 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
