Yeah, you read the title right. It's been a little over a year now since Manhunt 2 was released in the US, so most people gave up hope on ever seeing a PC version of Manhunt 2. Well, it seems nVidia in one of their latest drivers has dropped the ball that Manhunt 2 definitely is coming to the PC. See, most games have a profile built into nVidia's drivers for extra support and are sometimes added into video drivers before release. Back in 2007, a similar leak happened to Gears of War for PC. The game was placed into the files of a driver that released almost a whole year before the release of the actual game. Adding to this, a member named "deepthroat" over at ProjectManhunt, who before the announcement of Manhunt 2 let quite a few details out about the game that turned out to be true (namely the Wii version), back in November 2008 (before these drivers came out) mentioned the development of Manhunt 2 isn't finished but didn't get into specifics.
If you would like to check this for yourself, download the 182.05 drivers and look at the "nvapps.xml" file. The latest release of drivers 182.06, which was released quietly and uses the same changelog as 182.05, removes the reference to Manhunt 2.
