Sega announced today that Condemned 2: Bloodshot has shipped to stores.  I was a huge fan of the original game (even though it exposed how loud the fans on my Xbox 360 were).  The game looks great and the early views have been very positive so if you're looking for an alternative to Super Smash Brothers Brawl this is your game.
