Manhunt 2 Banned www.rockstargames.com/manhunt2

"A violent video game with "an unrelenting focus on brutal slaying" has become the first to be banned in Britain for a decade.
Manhunt 2, a sequel to the original and controversial game Manhunt, has been condemned by authorities for its "casual sadism" and "unremitting bleakness".

The British Board of Film Classification (BBFC) rejected the game after finding it "constantly encourages visceral killing".

The ruling means the game cannot be legally supplied anywhere in the UK."

you can not blame a game because of a murder, you might aswell ban cars because someone gets run over!!!!!!!!!!

I can see why they should ban part II: ted bundy, rumsfeld, bush, blair, linsay england, saddam, idi, ... They all grew up playing part I - and see what it did to them! Hitler and 60000000 million germans playing gta, and bang, the world's gone bad!
Oh, boohooooooo! The congressional investigation of columbine concluded that vid's had nuddin' to do with it! The Va. Tech. massacrist didn't play games! Mind you, I found part I boring, so I won't play part II, simple! But I guess showing abu ghraib at tea time has no effect on kids?

I don't want this game but this is quite ridiculous. Just because some people can't differentiate between make believe and real life, others must 'suffer'. Just luck I guess that it was the U.K. - like games and consoles come out so early here!
