hi guys i accidentally made this thread in the wrong forum so here do you thinki manhunt 2 for the ps2 and wii is overrated? well here is some light on the story from wikipedia.com!
Manhunt 2 is a stealth-based psychological horrorvideo game published by Rockstar Games. It was developed by Rockstar London for Microsoft Windows and PlayStation 2, and byRockstar Leeds for the PlayStation Portable and Rockstar Toronto for the Wii. It is the sequel to 2003's Manhunt. The game was released in North America on October 29, 2007[1] and in the UK on October 31, 2008.[2]
Originally scheduled for North American and European release in July, the game was suspended by Take-Two Interactive (Rockstar's parent company) when it was refused classification in the United Kingdom, Italy and Ireland, and given an Adults Only (AO) rating in the United States.[3] As neither Sony, Microsoft nor Nintendo allow AO titles on their systems, this effectively meant the game was banned in the US.[4] In response to these ratings problems, Rockstar edited the game, blurring the screen during the game's executions and removing the scoring system, where players were awarded for particularly brutal killings.[5] This edited version was given an M rating in the US by the ESRB and was released on October 29.[1][6]However, the BBFC refused to classify the edited version for UK release. Rockstar appealed their decision, and ultimately, the Video Appeals Committee voted that the game could be released with an 18 cert.[7]
Manhunt 2 garnered controversy both before and after its release. Reviews of the game were largely mixed. It was ranked at #1 in Gameranx' list of the "Top 25 Goriest Games of all Time",[8] and was nominated for GameSpy's 2007 Game of the Year Award for the PS2.[9]
