Manhunt 2 Is Still Too Violent For UK

Re-editing did not help Manhunt 2 to enter the UK market at this moment. The game is still banned by British Board of Film Classification. It was previously banned back in June due to the violent nature of the game and was said to be encouraging visceral killing.

Rockstar Games, the maker of ManHunt 2 made changes in hope to satisfied the BBFC committee, however it was not considered "far enough" to address their concern. The BBFC board claims that the sadistic nature of the game are still in the edited version of the game.

It will be interesting to see if Rockstar Games will cancel the game for UK or resubmit an edited version of the game again.
