THQ released the quirky "Destroy All Humans" last year with great success. So it's no surprise that this year everyone's favorite brain-sucking alien should return to do more damage in Destroy All Humans 2. Zooming forward into the next decade, Crypto leaves behind the Fabulous '50s to wreak havoc in the Swinging '60s. Join Crypto on his new mission to "Make War Not Love" and battle a host of enemies from secret agents to ninja warriors.
Peace loving hippies don't stand a chance with Crypto around. As he pops into a new decade, he comes equipped with a new arsenal of weapons. His new weapons like the "Meteor Strike" or the "Disclocator" make for big damage, and Destroy All Humans 2 wouldn't be the same without Crypto's mental abilities to crush, kill or suck the life out of poor humans. Try out everything like the Cortex Scan, Transmogrify, Mind Flash or PK to find favorite weapons to upgrade, or visit the "Abuduction Vault" on the Mothership for something brand new.
Five big, open-world environments let Crypto explore more - along with the ability to pick up side missions that go along with the story line. This is a nice improvement over the previous game which tended to be too linear at times without enough "free roaming" things to do. New to DAH2 is the ability to play a two-player co-op game on split screen and the choice to play together from the beginning, or just on completed missions. Fun little two-player mini-games are also spread throughout the game for some quick fun. Destroy All Humans 2 continues with its humorous take on "alien invasions" and gives fans a strong sequel that improves on the original.
