Subject: Manhunt 2 coming to PC Nov 6, rated AO
http://www.gamestooge.com/2009/11/02/manhunt-2-coming-to-pc-nov-6-rat...

The controversial game Manhunt 2 will be coming to PC, two years after its
release on the Wii, PlayStation 2 and PlayStation Portable, and will have an
Adults Only ERSB rating, reports TVGB.

Rockstar is re-releasing Manhunt 2 the way they originally intended in all
its AO glory, although for PC this time around. Set for Nov. 6th and
available now for pre-order on direct2drive.com, it will not be available
for pick up at your local Wal-Mart since many of the main retailers do not
allow AO games to taint their store shelves.

The original release of Manhunt 2 was given an M rating, after content had
been removed to avoid the AO rating, at the behest of Sony and Nintendo. It's
probable that the cut content has been restored for the PC release.

Instead of releasing 2 year old clichéd gorefests, why don't they release
some of the GTA4 expansion packs - or even do a decent job of porting it in
the first place?  Tossers.

Or collaborate with the various comic/manga and animation studios and
create GTA Toontown (or something similarly imaginative).

Oh, right, that means the final product won't arrive until 2015 at the
earliest.  What was I thinking? 9_9

Still, we can enjoy the fanart that the games inspired. ^_^

I dunno, I'm kind of interested in it. Considering the stuff that gets
rated M (decapitations, ridiculous amounts of blood, language) its
hard to imagine what the hell its gonna have to push it to the next
level. Extremely graphic cut scenes?

No, the cut content included... er... death by mutilating genitalia. Sick
stuff like that.

Do they feed it to a dog after doing the Bobbit like they did in the
movie Caligula?

Since the second expansion only just game out, on DVD as well as
download, I'd assume Microsoft will want to keep it exclusive at least
until Christmas. I hope Wankstar was smart enough to seriously gouge
MS for the exclusivity, they can afford it.

Personally I think the PC port plays OK, it just needs removing the
annoying social club crap and extra waiting stuff from startup. I
think the last patch removed the anti-modding meaasures too.

You said the word "git". You're banned from Australia.

I have relatives in AUS on both sides of the family so can get in to Aus
with no problems, but why would I want to when they ban almost every
game that comes out? I choose to live in a *free* country called Canada.

Hopefully there won't be a nuclear WW3 but if there is, and the Australian
people have turned feral and are hunting each other down like wild animals at
least they will be able to claim the moral high ground when they it wasn't the
violent video games that turned them mental! :-)

The part with all the skiing. Come here and I will hunt you down on the
ski hills in my skidoo and flame you incessantly with a bullhorn.
