Condemned 2 is the closest you’ll get to a Die Hard moment, as you struggle to find something in your environment to get the upper hand against the insurmountable odds. It's tense, sweaty, and yes, very violent gaming done with a unique sophistication to side-step any watchful parents eager to blame videogames for little Jimmy’s anti-social behavior.
It’s not all blood and cracked teeth; Thomas is a cop and so he needs to solve the many murders that have instigated the city’s descent into frenzied bludgeoning. Once you discover a crime scene you’ll need to collect evidence and piece together the clues to uncover how and why the victim met his death.

Investigate it to make sure.
