Destroy All Humans! 2
Destroy All Humans! 2
Destroy All Humans! 2, développé par Pandemic Studios et édité par THQ, est sorti le 17 octobre 2006 sur PlayStation 2, PlayStation 4 et Xbox. Ce jeu de tir et d'aventure place le joueur dans la peau de l'alien misanthrope Crypto, de retour dans une parodie d'action-aventure sci-fi destinée à asservir l'humanité. Le protagoniste doit se venger de la destruction de son vaisseau mère et affronter de nouveaux ennemis tels que des agents secrets, des créatures géantes, les forces soviétiques et des ninjas au sein d'un monde ouvert étendu. La durée de la campagne principale est estimée à onze heures et demie, tandis qu'un parcours complet atteint environ vingt et une heures, pour une note agrégée de 74,96.
L'accueil critique a été mitigé mais favorable sur certains points. GamePro a relevé que si toutes les missions ne sont pas très inventives, la plupart restent satisfaisantes et divertissantes, et plus amusantes que celles du titre original. Yahoo! a souligné que ce qui distingue Crypto-138 tient surtout à la combinaison de commandes solides et d'un humour à se tordre de rire. Du côté des joueurs, un avis publié sur Metacritic juge le jeu presque parfait mais déplore l'époque de paix et d'amour dans laquelle il se déroule, peu adaptée selon lui à la présence de personnages aux vêtements et voitures incongrues, tandis qu'un autre signale simplement que son commentaire contient des spoilers.

Avis des critiques et joueurs
Critiques de la Presse (Metacritic)
« Not all the missions are wildly inventive, but the majority are satisfing and entertaining, and each is more fun than the original title's simplistic collection quests. »
« In the end though, what really makes Crypto-138 stand out from the pack is the combination of solid controls and side-splitting humor. It may not be politically correct, but it's going to keep you entertained. »
« Full of missions and side-splitting moments, the game delivers an enjoyable experience. There's more to it than the first, though the essence of play is very similar. [Issue#146, p.82] »
« In Destroy all Humans 2 we see a franchise that has hit its stride and is spewing potential like a drunk on a Tilt-a-Whirl. »
« Even so, the improvements to the controls and mechanics, plus an option to have a buddy jump in for co-op at any time, means there's never been a better time to pick up a Zap-O-Matic and vaporize some meatbags. [Nov. 2006, p.130] »
« Graphics are average, but the game is just too much fun to not like. »
« "Mars Attacks!" meets "GTA" and the result is a game that'll make you laugh like a drain. [Dec 2006, p.72] »
« Funny, packed with entertaining physics and more variety than the first game, but marred by the occasional annoying mission. [Nov 2006, p.84] »
Avis des Joueurs (Metacritic)
« Almost perfect but I just hate the time this game is set in the "peace and love" time it didn't suit the game to see those idiots with long clothes and cars painted with the skin of colorful flowers. Destroy all humans 1 beats this one up »
« [SPOILER ALERT: This review contains spoilers.] »
« what can I even say, this **** **** awesome yet again CERTIFIED HOOD CLASSIC YET AGAIN »
« This for a long time was (and probably still is) one of my favorite games of all time. I played a lot as a child and I remember being stuck in Japan for a LONG TIME, when I made it through and arrived in Russia it was one of the most memorable moments magicians of the game world for me. I remember spending hours in a specific part of Russia where 1 mutant was born behind a house, basically with that it was possible to infect civilians and cause a war, this game is really magical. And the co-op mode was also a lot of fun, that system of pulling you closer to your ally made my friend kill himself and me when we went flying off a volcano and ended up falling into the water lol Now I'm waiting for the remake, which is sure to come as Crypto 138 has already appeared in a "recent" trailer from THQ »
« Improves everything from the first game. Crypto has more weapons to have fun and more abillities like transmog objects and vehicles for ammo. Maps are bigger and have more variety since the first game took place only in U.S.A, Destroy All Humans 2! Embrace stages from all over the world, like japan, london and more. The game adds actual side missions since the first DAH! only covered some tasks on the level after the main mission and not new story content. DAH2! Goes for a much more comic adventure and doesn't add much content for the actual alien invasion and domination of Earth the first game focused on and this can be a little disapointing since you can expect the world domination so desired for the furons as we see it on Destroy All Humans! Overall, it has more content, more exploration, fun and aventure. Don't miss this game if you enjoyed the first one or is a newcomer. »
« 62% I’ve gotta be brutally honest on this one. I’m not a big fan of this game. The first is way better, this is just quite boring »
« 63% Honestly, I found this game to be quite boring and dragging. The first one is much better. »
« This Destroy All Humans was the best in my opinion because of how good it was like the graphics were back in 2006 and it had good missions and it had some good cut-scenes but the thing that brings it to a 9 in my opinion is some of the bugs but I mean sure not all games are perfect but some of the characters I wasn't a big fan of but I mean the story was interesting. But this and the 1st Destroy All Humans are definitely in my top favorite video games I played. »
