Manhunt 2 Game - Banned in the UK

June 19, 2007 at 5:04 pm

 

manhunt 2

 

 

Manhunt 2 has been banned in the UK by the British Board of Film Classification.

A spokeman for the British Board of Film Classification said that the game has been banned because of ‘ unrelenting focus on stalking and brutal slaying’.

Manhunt 2 is the first game to be banned in the UK for over a decade.

The game is made by Rockstar Games and is to be released on the PS2 and Nintendo Wii Consoles. The company has six weeks to submit an appeal.

As with most things that are banned in the UK all this will do is give Manhunt 2 a bigger following and no doubt increase the sales of this game on import.
