Publisher Rockstar Games is responsible for this video game sequel of the first title in the Manhunt series, also called Manhunt. The violence level in this game caused a level of controversy that even made its way to the courts. Eventually, the game did make it to the market for public use.

Features

Due to the graphic violence of this game, it is categorized in the Psychological Horror, Stealth, Survival Horror, and Action genres. It only permits single-player mode of play though. Only the characters Daniel “Danny” Lamb and Leo Kasper are playable, though other characters will be introduced to you here. There are three ways to do the “executions” here – White (is Hasty), Yellow (which is Violent), and Red (which is the Gruesome way.) Players will find they are permitted to use firearms to execute characters. You can also resort to “environmental kills” which feature rather brutal ways to eliminate opponents in the game.

    was a unique movie at the time it was released. It told its story of existentialism Zen and taking down the corporate world that tells us how to think and act quite well, and ended with a twist that few saw coming. Read more

    There are so many questions to be asked about Manhunt 2, but the most important is not why the game had an A-0 rating, it’s why Rockstar didn’t spend more time refining the features. The story is great and there are plenty of moments when you will be surprised at what is happening, but the combat just takes one step back to make it worth a mention. The stupidity of the enemies and the inability to see what exactly you are doing when the time for an execution commences... Read more

    Violence in video games is a touchy subject. Politicians of all stripes love to point to games like Mortal Kombat and Grand Theft Auto as evidence of an industry that fails to restrain itself. Manhunt gave them even more ammunition in 2003. Now that Manhunt 2 has been released on PS2, PSP and Wii, having had played it extensively, I can say this is one of the most violent games ever. The added interaction with the Wii underscores the controversial content. Read more

    is a game by the infamous developer Rockstar. It may be rated M for Mature, but the irony is that mature adults will probably find it a bit juvenile. Ok, your character kills people violently. He passes through seedy S&M bars and chaotic insane asylums. People use foul language and speak of hookers ever so casually. Yes, these things Read more

  5. Manhunt 2 PSP re-uncensored

    I'm sick of seeing the words "manhunt 2": It's overhyped garbage. I actually adored the original, because it was stylish, ironic and had a very dark, dry sense of humour. Manhunt 2, however, seems to do for this series what San Andreas did for GTA. On a side-note, I find Soldier of Fortune far m...
