Manhunt 2 banned in UK and Eire and now banned from PS2 and Wii
Isn't this the most ridiculous thing you have seen in a long time?
What the fuck is the point of banning it? All they have done is give the game more of a public highlight than it would of without.
The adult rating is a joke. I believe they said kids should not be playing this game. Well it is adult rated so they can't play it unless someone such as their parents buy it for them. If the parents buy and adult only gave for someone under the age of 18 then that kid is probably already fucked in the head after watching many gorey films and their dads Jenna Jameson porn videos.
Video games do not make killers. The release of Manhunt 2 will not make people run around with tweezers trying to rip each others bollocks off because they did it in Manhunt 2. If anything banning the game is going to cause more violence. I am sure the majority of the gaming community and Manhunt fans now want to get some tweezers and rip off Jack Thompsons nuts, but it isn't going to happen because gamers have a brain.
Why not ban the SIMS? People get addicted to it and don't go outside, but rather make a character of themselves in the game go outside and play on the computer. How fucking sad and pathetic is that? Is that worse than Manhunt 2? Yes.
At least if you played Manhunt 2 and went out to kill someone you would get some exercise. Perhaps if the game is too gorey we better get people to stop watching the news and seeing the fucked up stories about paedofiles and rapists or even WW2 documentaries. Manhunt 2 is an unrealistic game made for fun. If you come home from work after a stressful day you will want to pretend the AI in the game are your colleges that have pissed you off all day, but you won't go in to work the next day and kill them all like you would in the game. If you do go in to work and kill them all it will not be because you played the game, it will be because you are fucked in the head.
Violent games and films are just scapegoats for parents who don't know how to be a parent. Go and fuck yourselves in the arse for raising a shitty little child and not games for supposingly making your child a killer.
