Uncut Manhunt 2 leaked...

**Ivory_Soul** · 09-09-2007, 04:41 AM

Well it was leaked today via torrents everywhere and if you ask me I think Rockstar did it on purpose for the gamers. Only the PS2 version was leaked though which I find odd and suspicious. If Rockstar did do it on purpose good on them! This should piss the politicians off.

so you got any screenshots or vids or links to website

**Ivory_Soul** · 09-09-2007, 02:48 PM

Links to what? The game? They're everywhere. If you mean of the uncut version no why do you need vids and screenshots for that?

if rockstar was behind it that would be so awesome
take that you censoring motherfuckers!

**Sephiroth_VII** · 09-09-2007, 09:46 PM

It must be a R* employee or an ESRB reviewer. Who else would have access to it?

**Khaos** · 09-09-2007, 10:39 PM

DO ESRB reviewers even have access to the full game? I thought developers submitted a video showing the "worst" content or something like that.

Anyway, this is badass. Someone needs to take some screens and vids.

Heeheeheee.

Rockstar is so awesome

I think it's an employee, but I don't think the higher-ups are going to try very hard to find and punish/fire the guy, if you know what I mean.

Also, this game is on the PSP and Wii as well, this should be in General Gaming.

If some popular story hits the news though and tracks this back to anyone in Rockstar or the ESRB I wonder how serious of a problem could arise from this.

Phoenix you say that for every game but if you read carefully (or read at all?), you would see this in the 1st post:

Hmm, seemed to miss that. I still think it would be better there, but I guess it's not wrong in this case.

It doesnt help that Wii pirating isnt as popular or easy as PS2. Anyway I dont support game pirates however this one I can let slide, fucking censors stick that in your pipe and smoke it!

AO rating regardless is for adults, and to censor it all together because we as adults shouldnt be playing things like that is bullshit. R* major props.

**OG_Monkey** · 09-10-2007, 03:44 AM

Gosh, why couldnt the PSP version be the leaked one....NOT SAYING I WAS GONNA DOWNLOAD IT...just...look at it...and...see how big the file was...and accidentially move it to my PSP's ISO folder...then if the unlikely event i click X in GAME and see it and it starts up, i guess id have no choice but to play it...

**Phoenix** · 09-10-2007, 03:46 AM

I really wouldn't imagine it to be that different from the retail version.

**OG_Monkey** · 09-10-2007, 03:53 AM

Maybe just more blood, violence, cursing, gore, graphic sitations, uncut cut scenes. Thats all i could think of right now

But seriously, whats ths big deal about AO games and why no company console maker supports them. I understand M rate games getting in the hands of children, but if someones sells a copy of a AO game to a minor in person, that person and store just needs to be slapped with a big ass lawsuit each time. Theres no excuse. But really, i dont see the big deal right now. But i dont really care, i dunno. Is there something really bad about it that im missing or something?

**Phoenix** · 09-10-2007, 03:58 AM

They need to support of retailers to get sales, you know.

**OG_Monkey** · 09-10-2007, 04:42 AM

yeah, thats what im saying. Why dont retailers wanna carry AO games and just not put it up on stock but in stead, behind the counter. The buyer would have to ask for it and obviously a kid cant do it so that solves the problem of minors getting AO games...kind of

**Phoenix** · 09-10-2007, 04:48 AM

You'd think a kid couldn't get a rated M game but they can very easily. Not stocking AO games really is the best solution legally, and in a way, morally too.

For the record I do not believe the original Manhunt II deserved anything but the M rating.

How do you know what was in it though? Only R* and the ESRB really know what changes were made (and some gamers, since the AO version's been leaked), so maybe what was in it did indeed deserve an AO? We'll find out when Manhunt 2 hits stores and people can compare & contrast the two versions, then hindsight could be in order

If it was Rockstar then it was a nice gesture to curious gamers, but not really "sticking it" to censors since the people who pirate software have access to infinitely more vile (and real) things than an AO version of Manhunt 2, and the important part of ESRB giving them that rating was to ensure that that particular version of Manhunt 2 doesn't get into stores, which it won't.
