The ongoing Manhunt 2 saga is beginning to get slightly bizarre. Here’s what’s happened thus far:
- Rockstar makes controversial game
- Controversial game gets banned in the UK
- Organization in the US calls for the game to be rated Adults Only, not knowing that the game already has it from the ESRB
- Nintendo and Sony issue statements reminding us that they do not allow AO games to be published on their systems
- Head guy at Take 2 is taken aback, calls the game “a fine piece of art”
It’s like watching some kind of bizarre three-way fencing match. I want to look away, but just can’t.
