ok who here thinks that manhunt 2 is going too far?(poll)

It's never too far. Only when people start to recognise videogames as a proper medium will all this stupid hate stop. 300, Oldboy, Hostel, Saw, Kill Bill, Sin City... they don't get any flack, yet people even go as far as pinning school massacres on Counter-Strike -- that's the real sick part of it all IMO.

Well,if Suda 51 really does make No More Heroes gorier than Manhunt 2,it's going to go even further.

The motions?  Oh come on, its not like you didn't know how to stab someone before.

Sajo7

Alright you want moves from the game? Its not like people didn't know how to cut someone with a saw before.

Yes, I read the preview which started this whole discussion, and I still don't think motions will change anything.

i was talking more about removing a man's spine with a pair of pliers

A lot of things are far more dangerous and influencial than a video game.

Like say... one's parents.

The game is going to be rated M for a reason...bc1391

i could just throw in gta manhunt and a bunch of other stupid titles that none of the systems need. but no this is manhunt its coming out on the wii. its the lil kids,girls and old peoples consoles. WII DOESNT NEED THAT GARBAGE. dcm06

What the hell are you talkiong about?  The Wii targets everybody. :roll:

[QUOTE="bc1391"]The game is going to be rated M for a reason...foxhound_fox

Not far enough in my honest opinion. There is not enough free publicity being generated by this game yet.

Damn.. I see what you mean. :o

However, I still think that opinions of general cinema violence have softened up a bit over the years. The way I see it, Rockstar's Dan Houser put it the best way (from OPM, in regards to GTA):

"A lot of the stuff we face seems like an attack on GTA, but ultimately it's an attack on the medium. Because the medium is still quite new, it's like "well, we don't like the violence or we don't like the sex or we don't like this or that", but you don't hear a word about it in a Hollywood film or TV show. So your problem isn't actually anything to do with the content, it's more to do with the medium. And now that you have a problem with the medium, let's discuss that - but let's be honest about that and get that out front. Because you say "oh well it's despicable!" If you honestly think that in relation to the content, and you wouldn't allow that content in any other medium; that's one conversation. But saying we should have different rules to other media, that's a very different conversation and one I don't agree with."

Why not? Every movie theater in the world gets movies like Saw and Hostel. It's rated accordingly. We shouldn't be having things banned just because a few people may have a problem with it. I live in the US, the land of the free, if you don't like it, get steppin.

Dam , that must hurt :| ............ but still , MK had spine removal for years now :P ......BARE HANDED .

If you can't take the heat then stay out of the kitchen. In other words...people that have a problem it Manhunt 2 can avoid it if they want.

I personally think it'll make an excellent stress reliever. It's not going too far.

the wii may target everyone but most of the hardcore people that own it have 360/ps3 on top of that im just saying wii doesnt need this game im not bashing wii. ROCKSTAR SUX! thats what im bashing. dcm06

First off, got proof  about people who have a wii MUST have a 360 or ps3?

Also, stop acting like you know what you're talking about rockstar. Because you=/=the world 

No way, man. I just never get why people complain so much about what they are not forced to partake in, yet they still feel the need to tell others that they cannot, or should not just because they dissaprove. It is simple really. The same philosophy should apply to movies, books, and music as well. And it goes like this:

If you do not like it, do buy it. Turn your head and leave it for those who do. End of story. If some idiot is crazy enough to actually want to try and act out vilolence that they have been exposed to in any form of media, then it is clear as day that they had a pre-existing mental condition beforehand anyway, and would have ended up commiting violent crimes regardless. However, what some random lunatic does should not cause the ruination of free choice, and entertainment for the rest of us who are normal, and can distinguish reality from fantasy.

Kind of but i put no i mean yes you can cut of a persons head and wear it but i'm up for a littile gore

no wonder everyone likes shooters so much killing someone saying i blew his head off omg i dont need that crap. saying crap like it doesnt have enough blood ect...

proud not to be a violent maniac.  

dcm06

I think your sentence got in a crash.  It doesn't say anything.

The more gore the better, I only draw the line if games have kids in them

that can be killed... it's not right.

THIS IS MY DAMN OPINION I NEVER STATED ANYTHING AS FACTS I JUST DONT LIKE THESE GAMES. dcm06

Then stop posting in threads about them...:|

THIS IS MY DAMN OPINION I NEVER STATED ANYTHING AS FACTS I JUST DONT LIKE THESE GAMES. dcm06

So, do you not like war games? THey're violent, but they're reality. Are you afraid of reality or what?

no i dont have proof about the 360/ps3 and i didnt say anyone that has a wii must have 360/ps3. just saying most hardcore gamers wouldnt be happy with just wii. dcm06

Again, do you have proof of this? 

if you think Manhunt 2 is going too far then you should play Manhunt 1.

its pretty sick lol.

I'm glad you mentioned this. It proves Rockstar Games aren't going to go so far in their violent titles. They strongly decided against children in GTAIV and even barred planes from Liberty City's airways.

if you think Manhunt 2 is going too far then you should play Manhunt 1.

its pretty sick lol.

Cool, just how I like it. I like to bag my video game enemies. :D
