If the PAL version is available outside the UK, like Aus or "maybe" Jersey, it will sell like hotcakes because it is banned.

Next they will be banning Pac-man for encouraging the "e" generation to listen to wakka-wakka music whilst throwing pills down their necks.

Region free disc mebbe?

Just get out there and kill people for real.

The Wii version scored 92% in NGamer. I don't know what the review said - I just saw it on the cover in the newsie.

I have to say that this game would have coaxed my Wii out of hibernation. Edge made it sound so much better than the PS2 version, going by their preview.

Out on 6 July, apparently. The Wii version is 50 Euros on Amazon France (the PS2 version is only 40, mind).

Both Nintendo and Sony have said in the past day that they won't allow 'AO' rated content to appear on their system.

If Manhunt 2's preliminary rating in the US sticks they're going to have to go back and make changes.

I remember when this happened before with a game called 'Thrill Kill' on the PSone. It wasnt even that violent.

I'm sure Manhunt 2 will be very violent but i doubt its much more than the original, the ratings board are just tryin to make an example

Yeah I had that at the time as well... probably still do somewhere. I can't have been more than 11/12 when I got that and it didn't do me any harm :D

I've got a feeling Manhunt 2 could be the first game we see resubmitted to the BBFC in a few years time and released in an 'Uncut' edition. The first of the 'Video(Game) Nasties' maybe.

Oh God - I can live without that bit of "retro". I fuckin despised what happened in the 80's with the so-called "video nasties." Actually, there was a great book my mate lent me which was all about that period of time at the BBFC.

It's alright everyone! They've fixed it - you now surprise people and give them presents, flowers and puppies! Yay!
