Digital Spy: Manhunt 2 Review

Digital Spy writes: "The release of Manhunt 2 has been an epic tale of controversy, bans, lawsuits and appeals. The story of its troubled road to release is so long and littered with twists that it would take up a whole review just to chronicle it. Needless to say, after the controversy its predecessor caused, Manhunt 2 was always going to have a tough time avoiding the media glare and censors.

The short version of events begins over a year ago with the original finished version of Manhunt 2 being sent to the BBFC. The BBFC went on to reject the game for being too violent. Rockstar created a toned down version of the game, which was still rejected. Rockstar appealed. The BBFC appealed. Rockstar won the appeal. The BBFC gives the toned down version an 18 certificate and finally the game arrives in time for Halloween."

***Note: This is a UK site, and the game was just released in UK.
