This game has been and still is banned in certain countries. People have to remember this game came out in 2007. Back then, this was next tier gore and psychological horror for its time. If they did a remake of this game today, it would almost certainly be banned in the United States due to its graphic content.
I feel like no one in the comment section actually understands this game and just expects gore and killing. But this is not doom, this is psychological horror goddamnit. To everyone complaining that this is not the gorey game that they expected: Then go play Doom damnit
Why do people say this is not that "gorey" Like what do you wanna see if you are one of those people please go play mortal Kombat or anyother gorey game.
Games like this probably won't have a remake version like GTA SAN ANDREAS which got a remake and realistic graphics, Rockstar will not make a remake version of this game because it is too GORE and this game has been banned in several countries
it may have been at the time it came out, but not now, and i could honestly see them getting away with remastering both games if they wanted to if they maintain that level of gore.
@@Darthmessiah66 Agreed, and Manhunt remasters I'd like to see NightDive Studios work on, who remastered the old Turok games, Shadowman, Quake 1, etc. Knowing how well they remastered Shadowman (3rd person survival horror from 1999) which had a similar vibe & graphics to Manhunt in the real-world serial killer levels, and in the remaster NightDive added even more gore and tons of unused content to the original. That would be the studio I think who'd know how to remaster the Manhunt games.
For anyone who dont know the story is about a guy named Daniel Lamb who escapes from a Mental Asylum and tries to get his memories back with the help of his best friend Leo Kasper.
I love how you're games. even if they're hard sometimes. Your authenticity is refreshing. Keep keeping it real. Great game. Your play throughout the game is absolutely engaging. It adds so much fun. The gameplay really good. Can't wait to see how you'll tackle the next level. Keep those gameplays coming! this video has been an absolute joy to watch. Your passion for gaming shines through, and it's evident that you put a lot of effort into creating high-quality content. I'm excited to see what you have in store for future videos. Keep up the fantastic work and thank you for sharing this amazing gaming experience with us!
I already know the entire lore about this game but haven't played it once. When I was a kid I had an obsession with this game and wanted to play it but it's banned in my country. Really sad, since the game looks good.
Dang that sucks. Luckily it wasn't banned here in the U.S. and I was able to hold onto this and first manhunt after all these years. There's retro videogame stores out here that still sell these games to this day.
I don't understand how this is gory or bloody or the most violent game like there literally .ore games like this honestly you got doom ,God of war, mortal Kombat, dead space , Alien vs predator I mean the alien rapes or sex with their victims and even impregnate them to make more and kills them victim too
@@pastelfromgreece9603 no it’s because it’s a psychological horror series, it wasn’t just for gore, it’s supposed to fuck you up mentally not physically
Every series you've listed either takes the violence to such ridiculous levels that it's comedy, or it's completely fantasy. The Manhunt games are a different animal because it's entirely things that can happen in real life, they're entirely grounded.
Where did you get that thing ? How many versions are there even out there ? I don't want to end up downloading some semi-censored thing and mod it up, I'm looking for the original uncensored thing.
It is. Manhunt 2 may not be as strong as the first one, but damn, it's level of disturbing imagery and brutality can surpass the first one more than once.
In Germany both games are banned (indexed) with an extra distribution ban. Just wanted to see why because even though the first Manhunt was gorey it wasn't too extreme... Maybe because the quality was bad (obviously it was 2003). Ok I skipped through it, I get it. It's not really the graphic violence but more in the atmosphere, the sound and the background story. Everything combined makes this game reasonably banned. Especially because it's continues killing without much plot or achievements in between. But the scariest for me were the scrappy cutscene screens for some reason 😂
Bbfc and pegi really messed up not releasing this game uncut not just for fans of the original but rockstar games employees who needed to pay their bills and feed their families its a horror game no different to saw hostel or most recently terrifier 12 and 3.
In retrospect - there's nothing really banworthy here. Sure the kills can be nasty, but I'd argue the way hunters are choked out in TLOU is much nastier. Or the horrorendous 'feminising' scene in Outlast Whistleblower. The rape scene in FEAR 2. James Sunderland smothering his wife. So on & so forth of much nastier, nore gruesome & lifelike scenarios. I think maybe the sound design being excellent here is seals it's fate. It's a shame they'll never return to this franchise, because I think if you tidy up the UI, keep the graphics relatively low quality, introduce a play on go-pros with social media & keep the kills but weaken the sound design - they'd get away with rebranding the series.
@@angelicamiller7751 Here are some corrections . I have pretty much the same answer, I don't know if this is the right way to spell it but I just have a longer answer.
It’s pretty bloody for a PS2 game. This game series is more psychological thriller, than pure action. And also, you can thank Jack Cuckson for getting this game banned.
@kingmobkingmobkingmob422 I never understand people who use emulators while game is literally made for PC aswell Emulators are only if game doesn't exists on PC
you could get one if you wanted, they completely took 2 off of the shelves due to the ammount og :"gore" and styled of the executions within the second game. it was way ahead of its time back then.

Rockstar appealed their decision, and ultimately, the Video Appeals Committee voted that the game could be released with an 18 certificate.[6] Manhunt 2 received largely polarized reviews from critics and audiences: the improved gameplay, game engine, plot twists, darker storyline, and use of extreme violence was praised, but its voice acting and outdated graphics drew mixed response. The title garnered controversy before and after its release, getting the attention of Leicester East MP Keith Vaz, anti-video game activist Jack Thompson, and various US senators. It was ranked first in Gameranx' list of the "Top 25 Goriest Games of all Time",[7] and was nominated for GameSpy's 2007 Game of the Year Award for the PS2. Contents Gameplay Edit Stealth in Manhunt 2; Daniel Lamb, attempting to execute an enemy guard with a baseball bat. Players primarily assume the role of Daniel Lamb in a third-person perspective, with Leo Kasper also playable in certain missions. Although different in appearance and personality, both have similar controls. As with the original game, the primary gameplay mechanic is stealth execution, whereby the player character must approach an enemy from behind, undetected, and kill them.[8] There are three 'levels' of execution, with each level progressively more violent and graphic than the last; Level 1 (Hasty) executions are quick and not very bloody, Level 2 (Violent) are considerably more gory, and Level 3 (Gruesome) are over-the-top. The player is entirely in control of which level they use; once the player has locked onto an enemy, the lock-on reticule changes color over time to indicate the level; white (level 1), yellow (level 2), and, finally, red (level 3). When playing on PC or Wii while doing the executions, there is a quick time event which lists down certain moves that either the mouse or Wii Controller must move or by pressing a certain button at a specific time in order to finish the execution. If it does not finish in the specific time, it will stop the execution and skip the execution completely, although the player still kills the person. Manhunt 2 has updates made to the stealth mechanics of the previous game. For example, players are now given more choices in terms of executing enemies. Aside from the three levels of execution per weapon, players can now use firearms for executions.[8] Two further additions to the execution system are "environmental executions" whereby the player can use elements of the game world (such as manhole covers, telephones, fuse boxes, toilets, etc.) to eliminate opponents, and "jump executions" whereby players can attack enemies from above by leaping off a ledge.[8] A scoring system based on how brutal the executions was excluded from the console versions in order to obtain an M rating from ESRB, while the PC version retained this feature.[4] While out of combat, players must hide from enemies by simply staying out of their point of view or hiding in the shadows. The shadow system in the game has been tweaked from the first game. In Manhunt, unless a hunter saw a player enter a shadow area, he would be unable to detect the player within it. In Manhunt 2 however, enemy AI has been expanded, with some enemies more vigilant than others. When hiding in the shadows, if an enemy investigates the area, the player may have to mimic a combination of buttons or motions (similar to that of a quick time event), in order to regulate the character's breathing so as to ensure that he remains calm and undetected. In the PC and Wii version, the player must keep the cursor inside an on-screen circle. Climbing and crawling have been added to the game to increase the sense of exploration. Another new feature is the ability to smash lights so as to create extra pockets of shadow.[9] Audio is a hugely important aspect of the game. Simple tasks such as running, opening doors, walking on gravel and cornstalks, or accidentally knocking objects over, can alert the enemy to the player's position. However, sound sources such as machinery can be used as a tool to cover the player's own noise. Other forms of combat aside from stealth are also incorporated. Gunfights can be done when firearms are available. Players can take cover from enemy fire, while individual body parts such as the head can be targeted. Painkillers can be found throughout if the player's health is low. When the player is discovered by an enemy, they can either run, hide or attempt to fight back with hand-to-hand combat.[10]

Originally scheduled for a North American and European release in July 2007, the game was suspended by Rockstar's parent company Take-Two Interactive when it was refused classification in the United Kingdom and Ireland, and given an Adults Only (AO) rating in the United States.[2] As Nintendo, Microsoft, and Sony Computer Entertainment do not allow licensed releases of AO titles on their consoles, this would have severely limited their potential customer base in the US as well.[3] In response to these ratings problems, Rockstar censored the game, blurring the screen during the game's executions and removing the scoring system, which rewarded players for particularly brutal killings.[4] This edited version was rated M in the US by the ESRB and was released on 29 October.[5] However, the BBFC still refused to classify the edited version for its UK release. Rockstar appealed their decision, and ultimately, the Video Appeals Committee voted that the game could be released with an 18 certificate.[6]
Manhunt 2 received largely polarized reviews from critics and audiences: the improved gameplay, game engine, plot twists, darker storyline, and use of extreme violence was praised, but its voice acting and outdated graphics drew mixed response. The title garnered controversy before and after its release, getting the attention of Leicester East MP Keith Vaz, anti-video game activist Jack Thompson, and various US senators. It was ranked first in Gameranx' list of the "Top 25 Goriest Games of all Time",[7] and was nominated for GameSpy's 2007 Game of the Year Award for the PS2.

If it does not finish in the specific time, it will stop the execution and skip the execution completely, although the player still kills the person.
Manhunt 2 has updates made to the stealth mechanics of the previous game. For example, players are now given more choices in terms of executing enemies. Aside from the three levels of execution per weapon, players can now use firearms for executions.[8] Two further additions to the execution system are "environmental executions" whereby the player can use elements of the game world (such as manhole covers, telephones, fuse boxes, toilets, etc.) to eliminate opponents, and "jump executions" whereby players can attack enemies from above by leaping off a ledge.[8] A scoring system based on how brutal the executions was excluded from the console versions in order to obtain an M rating from ESRB, while the PC version retained this feature.[4]
While out of combat, players must hide from enemies by simply staying out of their point of view or hiding in the shadows. The shadow system in the game has been tweaked from the first game. In Manhunt, unless a hunter saw a player enter a shadow area, he would be unable to detect the player within it. In Manhunt 2 however, enemy AI has been expanded, with some enemies more vigilant than others. When hiding in the shadows, if an enemy investigates the area, the player may have to mimic a combination of buttons or motions (similar to that of a quick time event), in order to regulate the character's breathing so as to ensure that he remains calm and undetected. In the PC and Wii version, the player must keep the cursor inside an on-screen circle. Climbing and crawling have been added to the game to increase the sense of exploration. Another new feature is the ability to smash lights so as to create extra pockets of shadow.[9] Audio is a hugely important aspect of the game. Simple tasks such as running, opening doors, walking on gravel and cornstalks, or accidentally knocking objects over, can alert the enemy to the player's position. However, sound sources such as machinery can be used as a tool to cover the player's own noise. Other forms of combat aside from stealth are also incorporated. Gunfights can be done when firearms are available. Players can take cover from enemy fire, while individual body parts such as the head can be targeted. Painkillers can be found throughout if the player's health is low. When the player is discovered by an enemy, they can either run, hide or attempt to fight back with hand-to-hand combat.[10]

Умели раньше делать игры ))
Извини MAGA, но, Manhunt 2 не настолько идеальна как первая часть данной дилогии, хотя мне она всё таки заходит, в то время как в современных играх происходит вот такое (ты должен это увидеть) th-cam.com/video/FNtN_H4Sfjk/w-d-xo.html.
Who ever is playing, is really bad lol.
