For those who haven't had a chance to pickup and play Condemned: Criminal Origins or for those who just want a little refresher, IGN posted a rather comprehensive list of character profiles for SEGA's upcoming Condemned 2: Bloodshot.After reading through Bloodshot's various character profiles we just can't help but once again be excited by main character Ethan's troubled past and how it'll play out in Bloodshot. He's an alcoholic who is paranoid, sees things that aren't really there and is at his rock bottom. Best part is that you get to take on his troubled persona and use it as an excuse to slam heads between doors and snap necks. Hopefully special agent Rosa Angel will come along to make everything better and heal Ethan's heart. We hear she has that magic touch.

Rosa was fat in the first one, shes lost some weight. it's obvious that her and Ethan will hook up. He wouldn't have hit up Rosa in the first one.

They editing the article right after they posted it, removing the section on Leland Vanhorn. Be warned, it has spoilers. I'll post it here for posterity:
"Leland was a sickly child. He suffered from a disease that made his body thin and his bones brittle. Doctors were not able to diagnose the disease and unable to help young Leland. As he grew older, he was never able to fit in and often exhibited cruel and violent tendencies that pushed other kids away. Being a resourceful loner, he managed to live on the street and as he grew older, he naturally drifted towards a life a crime and eventually became fascinated by serial killers. Instead of simply becoming another serial killer, he wanted to one up all of them by becoming a serial killer that killed serial killers.
Not able to hunt down serial killers on his own, he secretly followed the day to day career of Agent Ethan Thomas, one of SCU's top agents. Through Thomas' expertise and exceptional talent at finding the killers, Leland let him do the work for him. Unfortunately, his plan backfired and he ultimately paid the price after being shot in the face by a .45. He survived, but his jaw and throat areas were damaged beyond repair. He couldn't even talk, but he found a backroom surgeon willing to implant the vocal cords into his throat and the procedure went without a hitch. Soon after surgery, Leland immediately began making primitive metal rods and pins and pierced his body according to drawings and sketches found in his library. Without the true knowledge of the art of tuning, the procedures were not overly successful and he mostly managed to further butcher his already ravaged body, making himself even more revolting than before. Frustrated, he began to kidnap street people, addicts and vagrants, and experimented on them, creating a small faction of deranged sociopaths hideously disfigured."
