The first game I bought from Rockstar was Bully, which I really loved, so I assumed Manhunt 2 would be of the same caliber. Sadly, Manhunt 2 has issues that make it very difficult to play:
* The controls are complicated: the game uses every button of the PS2 for routine tasks making it very difficult to learn the key combinations necessary to succeed. To confuse things even more, some buttons perform different tasks in different settings to the point where I said, Wow! That was coolnow how did I do that? several times.
* Documentation is lacking: There are very good prompts within the game to tell you what to do and when, but if you want more details you get no help from the game insert and no help from the Rockstar web site. You have little context to begin and play and, at least for me, its not fun to play when I dont understand why Im playing.
* The game is annoyingly difficult: I expect games to be a bit more forgiving as I learn the controls, but Manhunt 2 gives no such latitude. It also selectively saves the game, so your opportunities to save/start over are limited, which forces you to repeat menial tasks a LOT. Trial-and-error gaming doesnt appeal to me and I have never been a fan of the game over type games, which is what Manhunt is.
I was excited about this game because of the publisher and the story line, but the execution is a huge disappointment. I have not enjoyed Manhunt 2.

I bought and played the 1st Manhunt game---LOVED it!!! (yeah I'm a little twisted). The overall quality was awesome and the character dialog cracked me the hell up!!!! This game is very disappointing. I got bored with it almost immediately and I'm haveing a hard time playing it again. Hate to say it but I think I wasted my hard earned $$$$!!!!

where can i begin? first, the graphics are bad, somewhere between Nintendo 64 and Dreamcast, this game reminds me of the Max Payne and Punisher games, but not near as good. I think Rockstar rushed this game out too quickly for the Ps2, knowing the Ps3 was coming. the game pushes the point that it's over the top bloody and gruesome, which it is, but it's nothing new, actaully i've seen worse in video games (ex. Shadow of Rome) trys too sell sex as well, the game I bought, the disc locks up, and I have too restart the Playstation, I've had to do this a few times, I don't know if it's just mine or it's a problem with the game, the story is not so good, its been done a hundred times and they did a poor job, it's not terrible, but it's not good, the controlls are a problem also, they're glumsy and akward, I'm half way thru the game and have no desire too finish it, If you like the slaughter and the carnage , buy Shadow of Rome ,if like first person shooters, look around, you can do alot better with your $30-$40.

If you liked the first Manhunt game, you should like this one too. No other game series out there like this one. Combined stealth, shooter and morbid killing, with a wild story-line that mixes serious, heroic, comic and insanity all into one. Being the second game in the series, and from all the hype, my expectations were really high. Well, it didnt live up to what I expected, but it was still a great game and a lot of fun to play. I hope they come out with a P3 version...and I hope Rockstar takes it up a notch (to the next level) to meet the higher expectations!

This must be a great game...my son rarely leaves his room long enough to even eat, let alone anything else. We have to pry him away from his computer!
