Manhunt 2’s is well known for it’s ultraviolent content where grisly murders and gruesome decapitations is the norm. Due to the recent banning from UK and US censorships, the game has been heavily edited before being released on the Wii. Here are a couple of reviews from Metacritic.

It has now been a few days after Apple has let out the Leopard and reviews are pouring in. Here are some of the reviews from the media.
