Introduction

Ex-special agent Ethan Thomas, stripped of everything remotely respectable and seemingly doomed to drink himself to oblivion on the streets, is pulled out of his humble hobo lifestyle by a desperate police force: there's a riot afoot, and a series of gruesome and familiar murders have them seeking aid from the slovenly sleuth once again.

While the media cite civil unrest and mass hysteria as the cause of the city's ills, mysterious sonic devices, impromptu surgeries and creeping black ooze point to a larger, more sinister force at work. Armed with two fists and a bad case of the shakes, you're tasked with not only taking it all on, but digging up some answers as well. But like any good detective, you'll need a partner, and that's where we come in. Sherlock Homes has Watson, Mulder has Scully, and you have IGN Guides on your side to help you crack the case.

In this Condemned 2: Bloodshot strategy guide, you'll find:

• BASICS // All the help you need to get back on your feet and in bum-fighting condition.
• WALKTHROUGH // A step-by-step guide to each mission with the locations of every News Report, Response and Sonic Emitter, to boot.
• SECRETS // All the unlockables you can shake a blunt object at.
