Manhunt 2 Revised for Release in US

Manhunt 2 by Take-Two and Rockstar has finally been granted an "M" for Mature rating by the ESRB. The game was toned down after it originally earned an "AO" for Adults Only rating, which many stores refuse to carry. The game is now back on schedule to be released October 31st in the US on the PlayStation 2 and Wii.

I would do anything for the original "AO" version of Manhunt 2...

Fuck this, I'll not buy it now. I was going to buy it strictly for the reason that someone had the balls enough to release an AO rated game.

Ill buy it and wait for theme to release a patch on the internet that I can download to a sd card of some sort and then use it on the Wii and hopefully then Ill have the ability to eat people alive and hear the horrible screams..........LLOL ZILLA, I was just thinking the game might have been like that.

There's the Xbox360. I really doubt this game will sell at all now. There are 100 world-class games coming out in the next six months. The only thing that made this game stand out was the fact it was AO. So many 360 owners would have supported this game if they didn't sell their souls to nintendo and sony - companies who come from the moral-concious country Japan... the birthplace of bukkake

It weould be nice if Rockstar tried to start a trend just like what the Movie Wedding Crashers did with releasing an Unrated version of the movie i don't see why that isnt plausible and that way they could potentially make it even more full of gore and violence thjan the original was planned to be lol go rockstar push the boundaries as far as you can go

Good point... I never thought of that. Why don't they do that? Anyone know what's stopping them?
