One of those must-have games

The Destroy All Humans series is brilliant. With #2, you are now in the 1960s, with hippies and KBG agents all around you.

If you didn't play the original Destroy All Humans games, it involved grey, big-eyed aliens coming down to earth in the 1950s. You ran around reading their thoughts, taking over their minds, and slaying them. Half of the fun was the incredibly funny sense of humor in the game as you interacted with these humans of the 50s.

With Destroy All Humans 2, we jump forward to the 1960s. The President of the US (JFK) was apparently a female-loving space alien. The KBG realize this and try to help out. The next thing you know, the aliens are on attack again - and you're in charge. You run around city maps, watching as hippy chicks shout out "Back off, Pig!" and reading their minds. You can mentally throw objects, take over bodies, and much more.

This game is much more "active" than other adventure games - you have to hammer on buttons to get actions to occur. You can't just passively press one button and be all set.

The graphics are great. You really get immersed into the world of the 60s, with the appropriate cars, the hippy vans, the murals painted on walls. The outfits people wear are super. There are the traditional items to collect, objectives to achieve and people to slay. But again, most of the fun is in what you hear along the way. The commentary is hilarious. The thoughts you overhear can get you laughing out loud.

If humans happy to see you doing something "alieny", you can zap them with free love - and the daisies dancing in their brain, along with the hippy music, will soon distract them from any troublesome thoughts of grey aliens.

Even better, if you have a friend come and visit, you can do co-op play!

Now, there are a few anachronisms - didn't "Love the One you're With" come out in 1970? Or maybe they're saying Stephen Stills got his inspiration from a hippy dude named The Freak. In any case, I'm sure Destroy All Humans 3 will be set in the 70s, so we'll get enough of that soon enough. In the meantime, be sure to get your hands on this version, and help bring peace to the world!

One of the Best Video games

This is GREAT VIEDO GAME. This is the sequel to Destroy all Humans. The Game takes Place 10 years after the first Destroy all Humans so its 1967 the time of Hippies(I don't think there that cool) and all heck break lose when Crptyo-138(A Pure Furon) loses his Mothership when Soviet KGB Agents shoot it down with a Neaclear bomb. Pox is kill all he is now is a hologram and you get to go all around the world to destroy Humans.
THats all for now play it to find out for yourself

Great sequel!

The game starts out with the Soviet Union discovering that you are an alien, attacking you, and nuking the mothership, but if you try to trace the storyline any farther than that, you will end up frusterated and with a massive headache as it is way too complicated.
In the game you get some new PK abilities such as the PK "free love" ability, which makes everyone dance like a hippie and forget if they saw you, as well as "protect", making armed humans defend you with their pathetic lives. To get ammo for your weapons you now transmogrify you surroundings into ammo. Also, your new "disclocator" weapon fires a disc that grabs things and flings them to their doom.
In your saucer you can abduct humans and put them in your gene blender to do experiments on them to gain PK abilities, such as abducting and experementing on 6 hippies makes you steal hippie bodies to disguise yourself twice as quickly as before. Also you get a new weapon, anti-gravity field, making all objects within range defenslessly float around so you can finish them off.
The gameplay for this game is about the same as the last one, but the side missions are so much better. They are like actual missions instead of run around and shoot stuff mindlessness. Instead of only one kind of side mission, there are now many kinds. The odd job, starting cults to worship the Furon god "Arkvoodle of the sacred crotch",(that's seriously his name. lol) and pleasing Arkvoodle statues to unlock landing zones. All in all this is a great game for anyone who liked the first.

Cooll game

first off i just want to say that the mom in the first reveiw is way over reacting. I have a son who is eleven and im 38 and id like to say that i played aat leat 5 of the levels and they wherent that bad. a little toiolate humor should we say. And for a 14 year old its a walk in the park. with that aside i will say that this game is fun if you like aliens and flying saucers. I enjoyed what i played and im 38 so if your a parent with a child over 11 or 12 this game is A good choice.

An awesome game. If you parents don't agree to it you should. A little swear word here and there but you can turn the volume down. Anyway I beat it and you will to if you try hard enough. There is a great storyline to it so take some time off lock yourself up and get to work.

Better than the first game

Has a lot of new weapons. You can travel all over the world, and the moon. It's a little bit tougher than the first one. This game takes place in the 1960s, the first game was set in the 1950s.

I need the cheats !

Sexual Themes listed as a description for the game.

The words "Sexual Themes" is listed on the back to describe this game. Generally, these are words only used to describe "M for Mature" games, so I was a bit surprised by this. After buying it sight-unseen, I chose not to give it to my 14 year old after receiving it. Other parents say that it's toilet humor and rather mild, but just be aware that these words are listed if this is a concern for you.

And yes, of course the game is rather violent as well - however, this post is primarily to let parents know that descriptive words are listed that generally are reserved for describing "M" games...not "T" games.
