The questions here are, will Take Two tone down their game, or release it unrated, and also, does the game retail industry behave the same way that the cinema industry does, or instead like the DVD retail industry? This is going to be the most interesting few weeks, considering if Rockstar keeps the July 10th release date. Example: Rayman: Raving Rabbids was multiplatform, but did awesome on Wii. Wii has the advantage to take the spotlight of this game.
Onto the point, just do it! Besides Rockstar, didn't you get some sort of money from Microsoft for the episodic content? Just whore out Grand Theft Auto VI for your financial gain! If Nintendo wants to shed the "k!ddy" console, take it because it'll rewind back in the Super Nintendo and Genesis on Mortal Kombat if Sony takes the game on AO rating. There is a risk of a financial loss, but it'll sell, but not where children are going to find it. It is like getting prono: Adults know where to get it and the adult industry is still going strong. This game can sell and since major retailers won't carry AO games, it's not like children are going to find it. Anyways, Nintendo should just take the AO rating. If Rockstar keeps the AO rating, this will be the first console rated game (I don't count that "Joys of Sex" on the Phillips CD-i as a AO game not even a game anyway!) to be rated AO and also first for violence instead of sex. They were strict when Leisure Suit Larry came out and published as a Mature title. Well, considering that Sony's take on AO rated games is a big no-no. It should follow that Manhunt 2 falls into the category of "prolonged scenes of intense violence." and apparently it is the first game ever to reach that level. Titles in this category may include prolonged scenes of intense violence and/or graphic sexual content and nudity." "Titles rated AO (Adults Only) have content that should only be played by persons 18 years and older. Titles in this category may contain intense violence, blood and gore, sexual content and/or strong language." "Titles rated M (Mature) have content that may be suitable for persons ages 17 and older. The ESRB describes and M rated game as follows. The differences between the two ratings based on their description is small. If the rating sticks, Manhunt 2 will be the first game to be given the rating based solely on the violence level. Lastly, they can appeal the decision and try their luck. They can clean the game up and resubmit it for a new rating. They can release the game with the AO rating and have most large chains not carry it because the rating is usually associated with pornography. Take-Two has three options at this point. Much criticism has surrounded the game in the US up to this point, from people calling for a boycott of Wendy's because they were promoting the Wii in general, to groups campaigning to have the Wii version receive the AO rating specifically because the Wii controls made it even more interactive. This announcement comes hot on the heels of a recent announcement that the game will be banned all together in the UK.
#MANHUNT 2 RATING PS2#
The rating is not Wii specific, as the PS2 version received the same. In the aspect of gameplay, it is mostly identical to the first game, the true difference about this game is the plot, as the plot was given more time to be written.Kotaku is reporting that Take-Two confirmed that the ESRB has given Manhunt 2 an Adults Only rating. Staying in shadows means you are hidden, running is noisy, throwing bricks and bottles will lure enemies out and so on. Most of the functions from the first game, and upgraded graphics are all in the game.
Just like the first game, this game also contains explicit amount of violence and it is depicted in a rather brutal manner. The core of the gameplay is simple but effective stay in the shadows and avoid detection while removing your enemies. However, it was shortly after legal to buy it in the United Kingdom. In some countries, like Ireland, Australia and the United Kingdom, this game was banned. In addition, just like the first game, this game also generated a lot of controversy and problems. Just like the first game, this game also revolves around sneaking, and removing your enemies silent. It is a third-person stealth, horror action game.
