Manhunt 2: What Did They Change?

An AP article looks at Manhunt 2 and the difference between the original banned version and the one that makes it to stores this Halloween. Essentially, it appears that they have removed some of the more absurd, graphic violence. The game remains banned in the UK.

"The impact of the revisions on the bleakness and callousness of tone, or the essential nature of the gameplay, is clearly insufficient," the BBFC wrote. "There has been a reduction in the visual detail in some of the 'execution kills,' but in others they retain their original visceral and casually sadistic nature."

"In my opinion, it's the most senselessly violent and offensive thing I've ever watched," said James Steyer, CEO of Common Sense Media, a nonprofit group that advises parents about television, movies, Internet sites and video games that may be inappropriate for children.
