There was a lot of controversy when this game came out, which meant I had to play it. I bought it for the Wii immediately and loved this game. Yes, it's a very deranged and bloody game with a horrifically demented story told like none other... but you'd have to be an idiot if you didn't know that before buying the game.
The Wii motion controls get you all the more involved in the game and you will at times find yourself so immersed in this game that it's frightening.
Definitely not for the faint of heart or children... or something you'd want your girlfriend's parents to see you playing.
My only gripe was that the murders were distorted due to government censoring. I'm not going to hold that against the game though, it wasn't their fault and they didn't let it affect the quality of game play.
I can't wait for Manhunt 3!

Not as easy to control as the PSP version but still awesome. The only game I wanted for the Wii. My kid/wife plays all the mario crap and I play Manhunt 2. My gaming lies with Xbox 360 which is a way better system.

Maybe I'd rate this game "just for adults" if it had some interesting gameplay and wasn't just appealing to a sick mind. I guess we can hope that the existence of this game will keep a few frog rectums free of firecrackers by occupying the time of people with those sorts of hobbies. That is about the best I can say for it.
I will read game reviews a little more literally in the future, as I thought the negative reviews on this were just hyperbole. What's so mind-boggling is that some group of people thought this kind of stuff needs to be in the world, and put their energy and money into developing it.

I bought this as a gift. It came quick as promised for a timely gift. My husband loves it.

I picked this game up a while back for the Wii, without renting it. Big mistake. This game lacks in just about every aspect possible.
First off, the controls are not that responsive and at times, the character would stop and look as if he were being cautious and the only way to break that was to shake my controller, causing me to swing my weapon. This caused me to give away my location. Being that stealth is a big part of this game, this was a major problem. Combat was pretty flawed. You'll find yourself swinging the controller and getting no response. The stealth kills are not anything to make a big deal about, which seemed to be one of the game's selling points. For the Wii, they were all edited out and they make no sense. Even if they had not been edited, it would not have made this game the least bit more enjoyable. Now don't get me wrong. I am a big fan of horror/gore, but I would not put up with this game's horrible gameplay for some petty gore.
Secondly, the graphics were horrible. I felt like i was looking at a badly made Playstation 2 game. It looks like they just went with the bare minimum on this game. I felt like I kept wandering off of the map to the places that were neglected by developers.
I can't fully comment on the story of the game, being that I never finished, but what I did encounter of the story was just not captivating. It did not suck me in at all. Escape from a mental institution, kill bad guys while trying to regain your memory, hide from more bad guys, and then, kill them! Hooray!
It feels like they were just trying to push the envelope with this game, not actually make a quality product. I'd be ashamed to have created such a game. They can't blame it on having to edit the game either because there are plenty of other elements that hold this game back. Stay away from this game unless you just like killing people. And that's when I would recommend therapy.
