Because we didn’t see this coming. At all. This is totally unexpected!
Sarcasm aside, it looks like this baby won’t be making its original July 10 release date. Given the recent events, Take-Two has decided to temporarily suspend Manhunt 2 as they explore their options:
“Take-Two Interactive Software has temporarily suspended plans to distribute Manhunt 2 for the Wii or PlayStation platforms while it reviews its options with regard to the recent decisions made by the British Board of Film Classification and Entertainment Software Rating Board. We continue to stand behind this extraordinary game. We believe in freedom of creative expression, as well as responsible marketing, both of which are essential to our business of making great entertainment.”
Hopefully the headline image won’t actually become true, because even if the first Manhunt sucked, I was really looking forward to giving this game a shot. No pun intended, of course.
