In order to do this you must sneak up on the unsuspecting enemy and when in range hold down the A button on the Wii Remote. For the most part you must stay in the shadows to avoid being detected by the various goons that are after you, and with the aid of various weapons and environmental hazards you must stealthily dispatch said goons. The gameplay remains almost identical to its predecessor. While this may shock the majority of middle England, gamers who played the original title will instantly feel at home with the tone and requirements of the game. You've seen suicide and strangulation, you've executed guards with syringes and knives, you've beaten inmates to death and you've possibly been urinated on, depending on your ability (or lack thereof) to sneak past inmates. By the end of the first chapter - having escaped the asylum - you have already seen some shocking sights and performed some horrific stunts.
With the help of the mysterious Leo you break out of the asylum and attempt to discover the reason for your constant blackouts and the meaning behind your haunting visions of the past. You play as Daniel Lamb, an inmate in an asylum for the criminally insane. One thing generally agreed on was that the game was well presented and really nailed the gritty, sleazy world it tried so brutally to achieve.įor those who appreciated the grainy grittiness of the first game, you'll be pleased to know that right from the off Manhunt 2 thrusts gamers into an unpleasant underworld of violent perversion. Despite receiving mainly positive reviews there were those who suggested it used violence for violence sake and others who found the game controls - particularly the shooting - rather cumbersome. The original Manhunt divided gamers somewhat. With all the attention firmly centred on Manhunt's legal goings on, it is easy to forget that there is a game here. The BBFC gives the toned down version an 18 certificate and finally the game arrives in time for Halloween.
Rockstar created a toned down version of the game, which was still rejected. The BBFC went on to reject the game for being too violent. The short version of events begins over a year ago with the original finished version of Manhunt 2 being sent to the BBFC. 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 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. The release of Manhunt 2 has been an epic tale of controversy, bans, lawsuits and appeals.
