Manhunt 2 brings back psycho killer game that we all know and love. In this review, I will talk about both the ps2 N wii versions of the game. Firstly the overview of the game. When you first start out of the game you get to notice this time, you are at a called a Looney bin. Then you get to meet danial lamb and Leo Kasper. When you play through the game, you get to see the so-called evil "Project" make what is called The Pickman Bridge and if you continue through you get a better understanding of what this bridge is called.

Now for the review of both the PS2 and Wii versions of the game.

Graphics-PS2 8: Wii 9, now for the PS2 version was actually good, but the wii has must win this round. Now many people may be saying, "why the hell is that?" well simple! In the wii I got to see a lot better of what the characters were doing and I wasn't so damn confused of lets say a guy was holding a baseball bat. ON the PS2 version, it would look like a blunt object on the wii it looks like a baseball bat. Do not know how to explain that even more

Sound – PS2 8:Wii8, Ok both versions of the game I did find the same defaults in the sound but that may be my TV. Whatever the case is I have heard, better so I believe if you really care about sound then I may not help you a lot at it since I have a pretty out dated TV. Therefore, I would think that if lets say I had surround sound it should sound awesome.

Gameplay/Controls – PS2 7: Wii 10, ok for the gameplay part I would say that they are the same. However, for the controls, the Wii is the winner and here is why. In the game on the PS2 version, I had such of a pain of controlling the person because unlike the wii you had to use the two analog sticks. Nevertheless, on the Wii you get to experience actual killing (not intended for people with mental problems such as being a psycho and for LITTLE KIDS!) now many people I have heard are like "if you can control someone being killed on television then the game should not be in stores". Well that may be true but here is a little word of advice…DON'T BUY THE GAME IF YOU DON'T THINK ITS APPROPRIATE FOR YOUR KID! I know the Wii is intended for families but this game is for Adults not 6 year olds. Sorry got side tracked, anyways great controls.

Story – PS2 10: Wii 10, now I think both versions of the story are very alike but hey I don't know they may be different but take it from me this game is awesome for people that just wanted to see what would happen if I stabbed someone with a needle. Well that is my review for this one of a kind game, and hopefully Rockstar do not pay attention to whoever tells them to shut down this game because this a Classic and would be a shame if they stopped.

    Manhunt 2 is a disappointing sequel, suffering from censorship thanks to the ESRB.

    Rockstar is no stranger to controversy. In fact, you could say they are the masters of it. One could say they even get a masochistic pleasure out of making games that have Jack Thompson, uppity politicians and soccer m... Read Full Review

    So after buying the game yesterday, after reading months of updates, previews, movies, reviews and all the other build up, I finished it tonight. Normally, i'd finish a game and go about my business but after reading all... Read Full Review
